They have their exits and entrances;
Each man in his time plays many parts."

and from reading thru more than a fair share of the posts here, "characters" is one of the more apt words to use to describe the many personalities on here! :smile:

Here's a big hearty WELCOME from the opposite side of the continent. It's always good to hear from another happy and proud kilt-wearer.

Welcome Viking.

Welcome to the forum!

Good to have others closer to home. FYI, there is even a kiltmaker in Lodi when you start looking for a traditional tartan kilt (aka "a tank" on this board.)

Welcome from Sunnyvale, CA!

I make it up to Oakland fairly often and always kilted. The last time was to see the Nutcracker Ballet at the Paramount Theatre.

Come down to the brewery. I'll be there.

Welcome from the great Pacific Northwest.

A hardy welcome, Steve.

It's great to hear so many welcoming remarks.
I will definitely join the local crowd for beers and kilts at the brewery.

Any excuse to go to the watering hole is a good one!

And as one of my kilt t-shirts says
"HANG LOOSE"
