Fantastic! You look great in it and it looks like your lovely wife made a great job of that Cilt.

I'd wear that one happily!

What is left to finish?

Still fits after 22 years !! That is amazing!

Hi Derek,

I never realised that Elaine had such hidden talents. Give her my regards and tell her that I am impressed by her handiwork.

Regards,

Rob

I wish I could still get into kilt I had 22 years ago!

Yeh, what he said.

Brilliant! It suits you well Derek. Congratulations to Elaine - next time I come to stay I'll bring a tape measure and a suitable length of tartan, some thread, buckles and straps, and .......

Take care,
Ham.
