ahem... Panache clears throat

About the fabric, just for the record

IT IS MAROON!

I have no idea why the fabric looks pink in the pictures, it isn't!

I look forward to suitably rewarding my dear and lovely wife, the Flame-Haired Celtic Amazon Goddess for sharing this moment of mirth with us all

We now return you to our regularly scheduled forum.

Cheers

Jamie

Yeah, sure. Whatever you have to tell yourself to justify your color choice.

Is it maroon because you fear you would be marooned on a desert island if it was pink?

All I can think of, being that my wife is in Mary Kay, is the pink Cadillac that they can get. That could be the ONLY place that kilt would look right....
