    I have to disagree with Mr Nicholsby of Geoffrey (Tailor) who is quoted in the article stating that "We are the last stronghold of quality in the Royal Mile."

    There is also Hector Russell and the Celtic Craft Centre to name but two as I would have pointed out had commenting not already closed.

    Having a GT Kilt I might disagree with this comment while the material is good the make up leave something to be desired.
