    Still alive and well

    Hi all, not been around any forums for quite a while.
    Good to see so many here actively embracing the kilt.

    I'm still working, still full time kilt wearing, even more active in Scottish Country Dancing (tho' my feet wish I would give up).

    I've not bought many kilts lately, still on around 23. The last one was the Tasmanian tartan, I do have another hemp on order from Robert (my fourth).
    Yes, I've given up on catching up with Hamish!

    We are still planning to go to the Gathering in Edinburgh next year, so I hope we'll catch up with some of you there.

    Keep on Kilting - Death to Trousers.

    Good to see you around, again Graham. It seems that too many of the old group just lose interest and fade away.

    Thanks John (and Jerry). Hey John, we have three things in common - kilts, Nikon and Apple! I'm a recent convert to Macs, they are amazing!

    Welcome back Graham! As for aching feet, my after SCD cocktail is generally a large glass of water and three ibuprofen.

    Cheers

    Nice to see you back Graham, as foor aching feet I thought that was just the cross we SCDers have to bear

    Gee, I prefer a single malt and a good night's sleep. (I still feel it in the morning, but hey, the fun is worth it) A good definition of my age is "everything hurts, and what doesn't hurt, doesn't work!"

    Graham, glad you switched. Been using Macs myself since 1993, and the old 8-bit Apple II machines since 1988.

    I'm still a film guy when it comes to photography... Just don't have $5000 for a D3, and don't really want the D700. My newest body is an old Nikon F3P (F3 Press version). That's what I'm holding in my avatar picture...
