    i think you're buying sheep, not horses. Remember that thread a couple of weeks ago about how many sheep are in a kilt? That might make for some interesting bedtime pondering.

    When given a choice, most people will choose.

    Brooster, my friend, you and I have had several conversations, both on this board and in private emails. I would say you border on insane. But on the other hand... I like that in a person! So from me, it's a compliment. You're welcome.

    What about PCs, I don't see no stinking PCs! Of'horse no mention of Argyles either, or waistcoats, or funny hats!

    Oh Lord, please allow me to accept the pleats I cannot alter,

    The courage to alter the pleats that I can,

    and the wisdom to know when to ship them to Pleater, Alan H, or Barbara T!

    Amen.

    This is very important - kilting IS an addiction.

    Heck, kilts are so much more practical than horses. (Been there, done that!)

    You'll never have to call the vet at 2:00 when they foal, you don't have to feed them (just brush 'em off, and hang 'em well most of the time), they won't get old and require more care with less enjoyment, and the fetlocks will always be in top condition.

    And when you pass on to that great kilt shop in the sky, you can leave them for another generation to enjoy.

    I'd say enthusiastic.

    Unless you've started selling the kids' furniture or taking a second mortgage on the house. Then you might want to get some help.

    I had some cash left in my paypal account so I bought an Ancient Lindsay Casual Kilt from Burnetts-Struth. Total was $157.00 including shipping thanks to the code I got off the forum.
    [QUOTE]

    If I may ask, where did you get that code?

    (just might be able to afford one too...)
