    New to Forum, not to Kilt

    Hello all, I came by this site two ways, recently while looking up some info on Tartan Week in NYC, I found these fine forums. However, I was also told about the site from a guy I met while taking a shortcut into Shamrock Fest in Washington DC. I didn't list him in my registration as I do not know his user name.

    As for being kilted, I bought my kilt when I was 16. It sort of still fits, once I found those wonderful devices called kilt strap extenders. Sadly the rest of the formal wear did not fare so well. Then again, I got my money's worth considering I have had it all for 24 years.

    Thank you all for the warm welcome. So far I only own the one Kilt, but am thinking of getting a new one, as this one has seen better days.
