    No kilt for me...

    Jeans for me this year as I don't tend to wear the kilt on the Irish holiday. I did, however have my green waistcoat with the horn buttons that I typically wear with my tweed Argylls and a MacDonald ancient tartan tie. The ancient setting has green and orange as the most prominent colours so it matches the colour scheme for the occasion.

    Amazon shows this one, lamb's wool for $32 (good deal, end of season) and it has good reviews.

    Thanks, room2ndfloor.
    The link doesn't want to work for me, but now I know where to go to track it down on their website.

    One day I went to get it out of the closet, and it wasn't there. Since I couldn't get anybody to admit to helping it leave the premises,...I must assume it was beamed up to a ship and is even now being poked and prodded to discover the secret of its long life.

    That shirt has also had a long life. I picked it up years ago at a Woolrich outlet shop. It's 85% wool/35% nylon, is still a bit stiff, but wears like iron.

    Here's mine:

    A lovely day out at the Cincinnati St. Patrick's Day Parade, followed by lunch with my bonnie bride and her best mate at our favourite wee pub in town, Nicholson's.
