    Hello from the North!

    Hi.
    I've been a member for a few weeks but I didn't post in the Newbie forum ...so.

    My name is Gunnar. I live in Iceland. I don't have any kilts at the moment but I'm seriously working on it. I really want to buy a traditional kilt ouftit with a PC, fly plaid,tartan kilt and everything, and a kilt that I could were casualy, but ....The thing is that I'm only 15 years old and I'm 6foot 5inches tall and I'm still growing! I dont want to spend like a $1000 on an outfit that I can only use for 3 years. So I probably just have to wait until I'm fully grown to buy one. BUT(.....yeees....there's always a but) I found kinda cheap kilts at www.thewoolenmill.co.uk so I'm gonna probably gonna try those out

    P.S: is the woollen mill a good choice?

    Get yourself a Poly one for £40, save your money and when you've stopped growing get yourself a proper one made

    From Colorado! What part of Iceland? Been to the American military base a few times, always wanted to see the rest of the island; some day I will! I second the poly viscose idea with your growing issues.

    Welcome from Eastern Washington State USA. You get what you pay for, so
    beware of cheap kilts.
