    First kilt ordered!

    Thanks to this web page and good advice, today I ordered my first kilt.

    I ordered a full kit from Kilt Store today: Brian Baru jacket and ancient Tara/Murphy tartan (as my avatar). I was advised by them that using a tuxedo jacket for less formal occasions was a popular option, so I should be able to dress for most formal occasions. A knitted white wool sweater should take care of the less formal evenings at the pub...

    Delivery is estimated in 4-5 weeks , so attire for St. Patrick's Day is secured...

    Will add photos to web page when kit arrives.

    Welcome, now you only need 58 more to catch Ham! Of course, by that time he will probably be well into triple digits!
