    Harold, in true Highland style you have used what you had around you to best advantage, you have adapted, you used your imagination and you have come up with a pretty sharp outfit and I wish I was half as clever as you, Well done laddie!

    Superb looking outfit Harold and congratulations on the talent to make/alter the those parts that you did. I think the overall look is very traditional (hope that's what you were aiming for ) I echo what Jock said about being resourceful and would like to say that your jacket conversion is one of the smartest I have seen.

    To my n00b eye it looks like a terrific job combining colors without being too matchy-match, and without being an eye-popping poster child.

    Looks great I think.

    I think the jacket and waistcoat are very smart looking. Well done on the conversion.

    Harold: You look like a laird that stepped out of one of those paintings in an old Scottish castle. Good show!

    By the way, I had a devil of a time posting a picture the other day. It simply would not appear. I corrected the problem by changing the [img] (lower case letters) to [IMG] (upper case). I don't know when that changed, but the FAQ on this subject is now technically incorrect.
    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

    Two thumbs up for the look and the ingenuity in putting it together.
