    Talking Jones Overdrive

    I got home from work about an hour ago and as usual checked the e-mail, not expecting much. What do I see but a note from Freedom Kilts. The Wizard informs me that he is about to start not one but two new kilts for me!

    As I previously mentioned, I will be celebrating a milestone birthday this year and had planned to travel to Scotland and Ireland. A new roof for our townhouse put those plans on hold so my amazing wife said I could ease the pain with a new kilt or two.

    Steve will be crafting a hybrid (industrial/cargo) model for me in Blue Urban Camo with a few personal touches and another tartan. It is a fashion pattern but Steve has assured me it is very good quality PV and it was a bargain at $7.95/metre.

    If you will please excuse me now, I have to go do a little closet inventory reduction.

    Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!!

    Just repeat the mantra. Steve makes great kilts.... Steve makes great kilts..Put on a tartan kilt and hike a local hill with your ipod playing bagpipe music. Then when you return home pour a dram and dream.

    Congrats Mikey!! You have a keeper of a bride there and it is great having a kilt maker of Steve's quality living so close!

    Congratulation Mike hope to see them soon.
