    does that mean we can expect an upcoming B&S sale on the tartan? <hint, hint>
    i sure would like another one of your casual kilts and the maple leaf tartan would be a fine way to honor my family's Canadian roots...

    It has never been my favourite - had to be a pretty slow day in The House of Commons.

    It has been on my wish list since I started wearing kilts. Now I want it even more - I grew up in Canada.

    Regards

    I think it's a beautiful tartan.

    BTW, Pendleton Woolen Mills has this as one of the color options for their midweight (Umatilla) wool Lodge Shirt:

    They also have it for their "Motor Robe" throw:

    I figure since I already gots mine, I can tell the rest of the rabble about it now. :-)
