    Paul, thanks for sending the tracking numbers. I now know the package has left England. There still is a chance it could arrive before saturday, I was hoping to wear it to the Opera!
    Thanks again for all your work on this, it is much appreciated.

    Don, the package was never in England!
    It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

    Well, now I'm confused. (I've been told that's easily done!)
    Just where did the package come from?

    I suspect that they came from Scotland, which is not part of England, though it is part of Great Britain

    Yes, Scotland is on the isle of Britain, as is England. They are both within the political union of the United Kingdom. As England has 9x the population of Scotland since the 18th Century the UK was regularly referred to as "England", as representing the majority appeared to be adequate; even on an official level. In this day and age I witness a lot of forgein and even English referral to the UK as being "England" to a lesser extent, although it is still present e.g. above!

    Anyway... here and some more tracking numbers guys. I have another 8 jackets to send still, which I will receive next week.
    The first number is the first 4 letters of your postcode, you can reference the actual tracking number alongside this. Track at http://track.royalmail.com/portal/rm...ome&gear=track

    I noticed the site was down for maintenance today. Does that mean the sale is over? Hopefully, not.

    Also, I have a 43 inch chest and a 35 inch sleeve, what size kilt jacket would that be? 43L? Is there any difference in British sizing?

    Guys, that's for your patience with the jackets. I now only have 7 to send. They arrived today and will be off early next week at the very latest.

    The site has been down for a few days as I was told not all of the jackets are available now. Apparently a large batch has been sold to a company in Glasgow, but they did not buy every single jacket. With the lot I received today I was sent some extra ones that have not yet been sold. I will update the website asap with what jackets are left.

    Hi Paul,

    I got a second jacket! Looks like you accidentally sent the same order a second time. Should I try to sell it over here in the USA and get the money to you, or just send it back?

    Jacket and waistcoat have just arrived downunder. I would like to propose a massive thankyou to Paul for his generosity in alerting us to the bargain in the first place and the giving of his time to order, package and mail the goods to us. As I have said, I owe him one
