    Jonesin'

    Yesterday, I ordered an SWK Standard MacLaren. I just checked my e-mail, and contained therein is a note from Jerry saying that it shipped this morning.




    I never knew before what it meant to be truly jonseing…

    Ah! yes, a great trial; and SWK will take a whole two or three days to delivery! However do we cope with such shoddy service?

    At least it won't be too long a wait. Congratulations on the new kilt.

    I do hope you were kilted or pantsed and not in a state to put it on immediately!

    I've had a double jones going since last week. I ordered my first kilt from SWK (Heavyweight Black Watch) on Tuesday, and it arrived on Thursday

    But it was too small

    So I sent it back and ordered the next size up. but while I was browsing, I noticed they had a Lamont Weathered in my size. So, what the hell, I ordered that too. Thus the double jones.

    They should have arrived today, but, worse luck, it's a postal holiday. I hope, I hope, I hope they arrive tomorrow.
