    Found the link, however the games have been cancelled as they still have not got the electrical problems straightened out at the Fairgrounds. Darn, was looking forward to getting down there this year. Maybe we'll have to head up to the city for yours.

    Oddly enough, I've sort of been having to wait so long just to get this thing in the works that I'm not gettin' twitchy about the time it's going to take to get it.

    I'm trying to maintain a kilted-zen-like state of mind while everything takes its course.

    I'm ordering a SWK heavyweight saffron, PC jacket/vest, and going to Ohio with mine.

    Like all immigrants, guess I'll be sending that $600 home to the old country, putting it towards that eggplant leather RKilt.

    If not that, will go towards the next Kathy Lare hand sewn, the Antarctic tartan. So some will go to the old old country, Scotland for the fabric, and some will stay here with the craftsman.

    Its for dang sure goin' for kilts though.

    Quick question for you, please. Where will you be getting the tartan from? It's high on my wishlist as well.

    Hey Racer96,

    The nice thing about having Kathy Lare as my kiltmaker is that she handles the tartan finding.

    I emailed these folks http://www.ukaht.org/shop.htm#Tartan
    and got a prompt email back that she was on holiday and would contact me in a week or two. D.C. Dalgliesh weaves the tartan.

    Kathy indicated to me that she would get the tartan from Dalgleish.

    So...I guess the Dalgleish.
