    Since joining this forum I have spent a heap of money on kilts, belts, hose, matching shoes, shirts, jackets, sporrans, hats, flags, posters, kilt pins, whisky, trips to Scotland, celtic events, scottish music, CD's DVD's ...the list goes on.

    and what do I get for the money??
    not much....freedom, enjoyment, fun, fulfillment.

    nah, not worth it, go now while you can

    "What, no haggis?"

    Now you tell me.
    First an interest in my familys past, then look at the pretty tartan, llook money, look kilt but no money, look a job for more money to buy more kilts and stuff......someone needs to send money to take care of my wife and children.

    If your addicted and broke there is a way out.Heres what you do:buy your son some pet sheep,your daughter a spinning wheel,your wife a loom and a sewing machine for yourself.Voila,no more overspending on kilts, you can have the tartans of your choice and sell the surplus to buy accessories.

    Hello, my name is Gary and I am a kilt addict.

    I've turned a corner recently. In the last week on eBay there have been three different MoD kilts (good to excellent shape, original 22 oz, one even in my exact measurements) that I have not tried to place the winning bid on. Five more dollars, and I could have had any one of them. I showed willpower and restraint, and I am on the way to recovery.

    Of course, I'm spending the money that would've bought a kilt and some to have Matt Newsome design a family tartan for me ... hey, healing is an ongoing process, darn it!
