Thanks for your support.

I did not take either the Modern or Hunting Forresters on the trip, something I may someday regret, but it was because I did not wish to be considered Irish by mistake (the Forrester Hunting closely mimics the Irish National), and the Forrester modern has become so loose on me (since losing 20 pounds this year) that I would have had to wear suspenders/braces with it, which are a pain on the golf course.

I will however be wearing one or the other, or both in series, at the Stone Mountain Games next month, with great pride.

I only belatedly realized my error in referring to my trousers as "pants" which in the UK refers to undergarments. NO harm done.
