Slainte!

Welcome.

6'10"? Yeah, that might be hard to find. I'm not sure you'd be happy with a Stillwater, but they do have a good return policy if it's too short.

Haggis? it's just a type of sausage, ...and you don't really want to know what's in other sausages either! ;)

[MacMullen]

Sausage in a BIG natural casing I guess. That helps! Thanks!

As a result of my German heritage I'm very familiar with (but not a fan of) head cheese and blood sausage (Thanks Grandma!), so I'm sure I can handle haggis.

Are the SW kilts hemmed? My wife is also very familiar with alterations.

"• Bottom edge is traditional selvedge, not hemmed"

[MacMullen]

Yeah, now that you post that, I remember reading that. :sad:

Well, for the price, if it doesn't fit, I could always pass it on to one of my friends to introduce one of them to the kilt.

From MacMullen's webpage:

...To remedy the situation my wise and understanding wife suggested that we put $2,000 of the insurance settlement down on a new car (a `93 Intrepid), and use the remaining $2,500 to pay for the Jeepster rebuild. : )

THERE'S a keeper!! A wise woman indeed! ;)

Here's my toy, but delete the running boards; I took them off long ago.

That's what I was thinking as well, Daz...Burns Suppers are traditionally held on or around January 25th, the Bard's birthday.

Welcome -- love your avatar! :mrgreen:

Welcome Joel, glad you stopped lurking and jumped in.
I've always thought that a tall man looked better kilted than a short man (eg. Liam Neeson in Rob Roy), if that is true then you will look better than most kilted. I'm 5'3" but I can get into small spaces :razz:

Is Lamar far from Denver? there are a couple of kilted lads there. I was there for a church convention last July.

You may have seen the thread on the vegetarian haggis, we had a function recently with the Pipe Band, we found a lot of people preferred my wife's veggie haggis to the "real" one, even though they ate meat.
from all reports the meat haggis was not a good one.

Anyway, good to see you here!
