    Hello from Ottawa, Canada

    I just ordered my very first kilt from Sport Kilt. I have paid extra for the pleats to be sewn down. I am going to use it strictly for free-hiking (nude hiking). I figure it will be easy to slip off and extremely easy to slip back on should I encounter other hikers on certain trails. That will be its only use and I should receive it in about a week.

    For going to work in a Kilt and having something more formal, I have just ordered a heavyweight wool from Stillwater Kilts.

    Im like a kid a Christmas - I just cant wait to get these in my mailbox and join the world of the kilted!

    Welcome to Xmarks! Mais, je ne comprend pas... you're from Ottawa but your location is in Montreal? You were born here but moved there, which would be a 180 degree reversal of the usual migration pattern? Not that it matters... don't answer if you don't want to... I live near Ottawa myself so am extra curious.

    If the House of Commons (Parliament) was in Montreal, I would still be living there. Unfortunately a career in politics brings us to where politics happens!
