    That is nice Glen, I've got to get me one of those... Oh wait I already have one. It took mine about 5 months to get, you? About 5 days! This is so unfair. I must say that Glens photos are about the closest to showing the rich colours that are (except the last one). For those that are contemplating a Maple Leaf i'd hurry as I think MacHummels stock is fast depleating.

    Closest, but they still do not do it justice. That tartan reached out and grabbed my eyeballs from about 40 feet away, in twilight. At the risk of repeating myself, it is drop-dead gorgeous; and to my untutored eye the craftsmanship of the kilts looks superb.

    It's an unexpectedly difficult challenge for the little digi-cam. I wish I had taken a close-up, but here is Barclay's kilt from our group photo:
