    I may have found something new- the E-Bay Jones. Instead of waiting for a kilt to arrive at your home,you're waiting for them to show up on E-Bay. :grin:

    I think you'll find that this article refers to kilt hire/rental - not sales!! That means they are being hired for special occasions such as Hogmanay, New Year weddings, etc.

    Sorry to disappoint, but they're hardly likely to appear on Ebay if I am right.

    Sorry about that, my inner kilt-aholic took over.

    Maybe after they've been rented out too many times the store will sell them off. I know tux shops do that.

    Nevertheless Hamish, if demand for the wearing of the kilt is up in England or indeed anywhere else in the world, it has to be a good thing!

    Personally, I couldn't imagine hiring a kilt, I mean, just imagine, the time would come when you had to send it back !!
