    I, now, relate getting my 'Homespun' kilt from Celtic Croft, to getting my first telescope. Moderate diameter, could view much. However, I learned something, after researching more. Had I spent a bit extra, I could view more. With that 'scope, Probably, be in the same position, again. The Homespun kilt is nice. After attending a couple of Highland Games, speaking with a few kilted people, & seeing how a 'full / proper' kilt looks (or, swish+swagger).....I'm left wanting that bit more.

    Very true. However, so far, I have no regrets regarding my purchases. I assumed I'd enjoy wearing a kilt but without actually wearing one out how would I know. Now I know. So, following the path of so many others (I'm so very sure), I'm slowly upping my budget and I'm awaiting my first USAK semi-traditional. After that, after taking a bit of a budgetarily-necessary break I'll take the plunge into a 5-yd wool.

    Agreed, no regrets at all. The next steps are based upon the budget. The aging family Range Rover (I refer to affectionately as Lazarus), is taking the spare dosh.
