Did Santa Come?

[Tattoo Bradley]

Christmas was great this year. I didn't get anything "kilt related" but that's quite alright as this year I bought myself all the kilt stuff I needed (3 hand sewn 16 oz. woolen kilts and a couple of high end fur sporrans in a year is enough for ANY man. ) The big gift for the two of us was a lovely, and expensive, table from Nikki's parents. It's the decorative type that is made to be up against a wall. No doubt it will surface in a kilt photo or two over the next year. We also received a MUCKLE BIG CLOCK from them as well. My personal "big" present was from my mother.

As usual, a lump of coal....

Unless that man is Hamish...

Then again, he's more of a legend, so I guess you're right.

I expect to have Alan H's Black Denim RK coming anytime now and also the funds to get myself another kilt of some sort, but I think I'll be doing some shopping around to see what I wanna be getting for sure.

I like Fossil too, they have some great leather stuff.

I got a sgian dubh, some kilt hose and a kilt pin on the way. Ordered myself an argyll so, I'm good on the kilt related stuff.

And an ipod to replace the one that was stolen.

Hey there, Rocky! Merry Christmas, brother! To answer your question- I got a hand forged striker and a bag full of flint and tinder! Yes, I actually got coal- and am happy as heck about it! How cool is that?

I did pretty good this year, mostly of hand made kilt related clothing made by my loving and genius wife...

First, she made me two band collar shirts with a little extra length. Both are silk but one is a silk broadcloth and the other is a silk and linen blend. I got a black one with a white collar and a cream one (in the photo).

Then she made me a Jacobite blue bonnet--knitted and felted--and a white satin cockade (from a photo and illustration here on this forum...thank you very much).

And lastly, after a lot of research and many mistakes that had to be taken out, she made me a singleton and a third (didn't get it done in time for Christmas) of tartan hose to match my kilt.

I also got a small round "sporran" flask from my daughter.

Here you can see the shirt, bonnet and hose:



and this photo shows the hose a little more closely:



Still holding out hope for a P-37 battle dress.

Happy Christmas to all who partake!! Scooby and his mom gave me a potpouri of coffee related items, including a handpainted mug. No kilt related items, but I think I may finally get my "kilt jacket" in time for Burn's Supper next month; it's been in progress for more than a decade.

I love the bonnet!
