1000th post

I just wanted to say for my 1000th post, thank you to the members of this community. I found this forum a couple of years ago when I started researching to purchase my first kilt. This forum has a wealth of information, ideas and humor. You can ask my lovely bride, I'm here almost everyday reading the different threads and enjoy the pictures. I have learned so much and continue to learn and pass information on to people that ask me about the kilt. I am always telling people about Xmarksthescot when they want information about kilts.

this is my first time wearing a kilt

Congratulations!

1000 posts in 2½ years, impressive. You have enjoyed the process and are helping us do so, too. I will salute you when I have my coffee with all our fellow XMarksmen tomorrow morning as we scan all the new posts.

It is wonderful to see your family enjoying the tartan, also. It was a pleasure to welcome your wife into the rabble earlier today, she obviously has enjoyed the journey with you.
