I hope the nephew doesn't read these forums or the surprise would be spoiled! 
But clearly another convert in the making!

That's great!! I wish I had an uncle like you!! Would you like to adopt me??
If your nephew is a cabinet installer, is he a good candidate for a UK Workman?

Now for the really sneaky part. I have ordered two kilts in the MacKinnon tartan. An ancient hunting and a 1842 MacKinnon red. My nephew does not know it yet, but he will be wearing the red tartan for his wedding!
Families can be such a source of entertainment, I can not wait to see his eyes  when we present that to him!
Don't you remember, I am related to you through some sort of long lost way, and I read this forum and so I WANT MY KILT TOO, from you. You know how much I always liked you and your kilts! Ha ha
That is sure nice to do, I can't wait to hear more and see pictures.
DALE.
You don't have to be Scottish to be comfortable!

It's probably a good thing (for Splash_4) and a bad thing (for the rest of us) that DNA profiling has gotten so advanced and reliable...

Wow, that's a really nice gift and I'm sure that your nephew will really appreciate it. I can't imagine what I would have done had that happened to me on my wedding day

Well Done Splash!
The next step is to get your nephew to join X Marks...
With you and Dirk Skene as kilt recruiters our numbers here are going to skyrocket.
Keep up the good work.
Cheers
