I'll be in Scotland in about 4 weeks. If it all works out, we're even hoping to make it down for one of those famous Dumfries pub crawls. Sadly I won't have any kilts or accessories with me.

How timely to find this thread! I'll be in Scotland in 3 1/2 months. Earlier tonight, I purchased a new piece of luggage just to haul the kilts, etc. I'll be taking!

I am sure Pour1Malt will be only too happy to lend you a kilt to take part in the pub crawl.
If not you can borrow one of mine.

Or when you get to Dumfries you head for Anderson's and buy an ex-hire off the rack. Thats' what I did one trip when British Airways lost my luggage. It's a GREAT excuse.

It's a good idea Dee, but considering the $$$ we are dropping on flights and hotels to see 6+ cities in 14 days I think a new backpack is needed before a new kilt. Kilts are great, but I would trade them for time in Scotland any day and the kilt would take up important beer money.

He's not kidding. I just came back from Scotland a week and a bit ago with a bit of a sun burn. It's a nice tan now, but it still gets a laugh when you tell friends, that have been there, that you got your tan in Scotland.
