    You're moving near pubs?!

    That horrible neck pain that I was talking about, and was keeping me from helping to move you in, is clearing-up nicely!

    Get a good Irish Pub with Guinness and I might just help to paint it too... veeeeeery slooooooowly.
    Arise. Kill. Eat.

    Here's the pub that will be right by Bear's new location. In my opinion Jimmy, they serve a fine pint of Guinness.

    I would think that the leather straps would still be machine washable, but they could not go in the dryer, and the kilt would have to be hung up to dry. I do this with all my kilts anyway. Still quicker and cheaper than dry cleaning.

    Congrats on your new storefront Bear. You are now on your way..
    As for straps has anyone tried of reinforced rubber or plastic.. that could be machine washable.

    Gastown is definately a good location for Bear Kilts. Congradulation on the expansion. Are you planning a Grand Opening Cocktail Party as well?

    Congratulations from little ol' Storrington, Terry.

    Gastown, eh? That'll be just off Hastings Street then? [Not that I know anything - yet - of Vancouver!]
