    Blu,
    as some of my co-workers know I wear a kilt outside of work, it won't be associated with a costume. The bigger issue is that part of my job is running the scene shop for the theatre department -- and that involves climbing, paint, dirt, and other ickyness. I'm not sure how the kilts I've built will stand up to that (and ofcourse their is the climbing thing). Halloween happens to fall on a tuesday when the shop is not opened (this term) so me wearing the kilt will either be a tuesday or a friday, but I want to get the new pattern built because i think it will be very low inpact on the others in the building.
    As to those who want to see the kilt i have some picutures but I made the mistake of wearing a shirt that is the same color as the kilt (black) so they look like I'm wearing a dress. but here are 2 pics

    Back

    Cheers
    Chris

    I will also have to watch for kilt events in San Fran, as it doesn't take much to get there especially if I have the day off (I hate driving back after dark ... but its a big city there must be hotels somewhere )
    Thanks for the tip about switchblade being in Fresno, i'll keep an eye out.
    Cheers

    Chris,

    Monkey@Arms (aka Jake) is trying to organize a S.F. event for the Bay Area Kilties. Our regular get together is the Devil's Canyon MicroBrewery in Belmont on the last Friday night of the month.

    Good luck on C.d. B. ! Whose translation (s) are you using?

    Cheers

    Chris,

    Greeting from the foggy Coastside.

    Make yourself a kilt in the brightest red tartan you can find and you'll be a popular guy during Fresno's football season.

    We have a monthly gathering in Belmont (about 10 miles south of San Francisco.) And the Loch Lomond games (http://www.lochlomondceltic.org) are coming up on October 7th.

    Hope to meet you soon.

    Welcome fellow craftsman. Can't really see any details on a black kilt, maybe the next one will show the detail better. I can't wait to see it. O'Neille
