Graham,
I think that you should seriously consider the Australian tartan.
It would look good with your new leather jacket.

Casey, 'me 'ol mate....I know you mean well, I know your intentions are good.....
but the Australian tartan???
1. I wouldn't be buried in it, yuck! OK it would match well with a brown leather jacket....for a lassie maybe.
2. While it's true that I possess an Australian passport, and yes, it can be argued that I have an Australian wife and five Australian kids, but I want to tell you that deep down in my soul......
I am British!!!
Australian tartan???
Thanks, but no thanks

Hamish, thanks for your encouragement.
Freelander: this will be kilt number eight, I told my wife that 8 in the Bible, numerically, represents "new beginning" and wearing kilts is a new beginning
(now what does 9 represent? haha, Hamish, 40 stands for "time of testing" are you "tested" by 40 kilts?)
Bubba: you've solved a mystery for me. I wear a wedding ring, but my wife does not, she says her fingers are the wrong shape for a ring.
That explains why she can read MY mind, and I cannot read hers!!
Ron: buy your kilts first, then get a wife

Tested, Graham? Me? The only way I am "tested" by having these kilts is, each morning when I have to decide which one to wear!
Uhhh! Sorry, but I have to upset your calculations, Graham. The current total is 41 ........ and I have two more on order (delivery: early to mid December. Just a little Christmas gift to myself! )

Both are plain colour casual kilts, Graham.
1) A muted brown from our sponsor (KiltStore.net):

but I have opted for a 7yd rather than the standard 6yd.
2) A dark grey, but not quite charcoal, "TFCK" 6 yarder in woollen worsted.
No image of this one, as it's a one-off!

yes I know that was the subtle message, glad you picked up on it
I'm not keen on the Tasmanian tartan either.
Not much of a patriot am I!!
