    The Jonesing has begun

    As I'm finally getting my debts sorted and starting to have a bit of spare cash, I thought I'd give myself a slightly belated birthday present.

    Just ordered a 16oz, 8yd, PV Scottish National from The Scotland Kilt Co.

    Delivery is 5 to 14 days.

    Each day is going to be bitter sweet agony...

    Its taken 2 years, but finally getting kilt #2.
    Just need a Isle of Skye from PH, a MacLeod of Lewis Dress Modern, and a ...

    Just had my kilt placed into my eager hands.
    Its quite a dark tartan, but have to say I really like it.

    Good for you Martin! Nothing like getting debt sorted out and having cash.

    I'm jonesing for a few things too, but it is what it is. When I get the stuff I'm waiting on, there will be pics!

    Thanks Simon.
    Things are certainly improving. My contract is being extended to April or mid May and there's a possible project after that.
    Plus a hint of a four year project as well.

    Add to that two top people from the company I'm contracting for came down the other day and said they'd like to keep the team together as we're doing so well and what do we want to do next - project management, project coordination, contracts and legal, etc, and I was even asked to consider Barcelona or Singapore...
