Saying hi

I have been lurking for a while and have enjoyed many of the threads. Thought it was time I joined in.

I have been a kilt wearer for about three years. I have a 4-yard Northumberland tartan, a 4-yard Buchanan Old Sett (weathered) and a 5-yard Fitzgerald. Totally enjoy wearing the kilt whenever I can. Hope to get another for Christmas.

Not sure what it is about the kilt, but always seems there is one more to get! Is that a common experience?

So . . . glad to be here.

Welcome to X-Marks and the addiction!

Welcome - and at that to an addiction where nobody seems to care about quitting...

Welcome. Instead of a 12 step program we have a one step porgram...Surrender!

Any pictures of your Northumberland kilt? I've only seen one other picture of a Northumberland tartan kilt, and it is quite striking. My Wilkinson ancestors were from Northumberland, and I've always liked that one.

Welcome!
