    I am also waiting something to be shipped here from the States. Hopefully I will get it before the end of the month.

    Oh man... I know how it feels. It seems things take forever to get to Hawaii. And the wait for my "tank" outta Scotland took MONTHS! It was crazy.

    The reports we read of near overnight service from Stillwater in the US does not apply here in the Great White North. Our customs and postal services are giant machines that work at their own pace unfazed by the aspirations of Joe public. If there was a Stillwater Kilts Canada Ltd., there might be an improvement.

    My first kilt was a handsewn traditional. The tartan had to be specially woven by Locharron.

    I ordered it at the end of April and picked it up at the beginning of September.

    Just for perspective. I hope yours arrives soon.

    Ah yes, Canada Post

    On my first cross-Canada train trip I mailed a post card from Winnipeg to a friend in Ventura. It took a full 5 months to get there.

    That's because it froze in Winterpeg and they likely couldn't open the mail box . I took a full year to defrost after moving from Winnipeg (born and raised) to Vancouver.
