    SB,

    It is good to see you at last, and that is a very nicely colour co-ordinated ensemble you have there. Whilst I do not generally favour white hose, I am pleased to see that you have not gone down the very dark hose (bottle green or navy) route as so many do with the Black Watch kilt! It's just an aesthetic thing that I have!!

    I do have a question for you though. Is there a particular reason why you are wearing the sporran so high? It appears to be hanging from the very top of the kilt when, normally, the chain-strap is worn loosely, out of the belt loops, but immediately below the belt. Please excuse my curiousity.

    Hamish,you have a sharp eye indeed.I was wearing the strap high when the pic was taken simply because I didn't have time to place it properly.My niece saw me putting it on and was in a hurry to take the pic.The hose are actually oatmeal in color.I think the white background threw the color off.As for the color co-ordination,I have you to thank for all you've posted on the subject.

    If at first you don't succed,srewup until you do.
    Good job. The first times I tried posting pics, I screwed up so many times that I had to ask the mods to help me get rid of a bunch of duplicate posts and then to post the pic for me. I think I know how to insert the image tags now, but since I started using photobucket, they insert the tags for me. Maybe I should do one myself some time so I don't forget (all to easy to do after you pass age 60).

    The problem I had was a simple typo,the kind that drives you nuts until it's found.

    Thanks for that SB. I didn't mean to pry, but I can be over-curious from time to time!!

    The hose are actually oatmeal in color.I think the white background threw the color off.
    Ah! Now that gladdens my heart!
