    Hello from Kent, United Kingdom

    Hi there!

    Thought I would introduce myself to the forum. I have ordered myself a 16oz 8yrd Balmoral Kilt in Robertson Hunting Modern tartan from Scotweb, with Sporran (with Robertson Clan Crest), Kilt Pin (Robertson Clan Crest), Brogues, Hose, flashes, Argyll Jacket, Shirt, Bow Tie, Sgian Dubh (with Robertson Clan Crest) and a Ghillie shirt in black (for less formal events). (I'm afraid it is all or nothing with me!!) I have always been interested in owning a kilt and have finally taken the plunge. The whole package should be with me any day now and will post pictures when I receive it.

    I wore a hire kilt in December to my Works Christmas party and I loved the wearing experience. It was also well received by all with no negative comments whatsoever!


    I will no doubt be asking a lot of questions in the future.

    Thanks,

    Simon
