    It sure does if you've put on ten pounds since you measured for that tank you ordered a few months ago!

    This is the key reason I have so many kilts...my weight bounced back and forth over a 15 pound range. I'm on my way back down from my top weight now...still have kilts too small to wear yet...and as I get to them I'll leave some too large.

    I did the same thing when wearing pants. Thank God for velcro and kilt straps.

    Finally got my new Spirit of Scotland last Friday. A good fit this time. Wore it on Saturday to the aviation museum. Only one person commented, said it looked smart. Ironically it was the day of our local Hawick Highland Games which I missed this year due to being over at the airport, but plenty of braw kilts still around Hawick in the evening when I got back so I wore it around town for a couple of hours in the early evening. Asked a friend to take my photo but my digital camera wouldn't work; so he took one using his mobile 'phone but didn't get a good result so I'm still jonesing for a photo to post here.

    When I have to tighten the straps...party!!!!! food! food! food!

    When I have to loosen the straps...oops!!!!!!! water and bread

    Since I wear kilts I try hard to stay at the same weight...it would be a personal drama when my kilts won't fit anymore...shivers...cold sweat...the idea alone is almost unbearable
