    A Couple of New Aquisitions

    In the recent past I have been fortunate enought to acquire some new goodies to go with my kilt. No 1 was a burgundy waistcoat from the Gentlemens Emporium (also got a red one but no photos as yet) and No 2 was a L & M head on Muskrat sporran via STM. Last weekend I was visiting friends up the country and before going out for the day, my good lady took a couple of photos

    What is that wonderful tartan you're wearing. The red hose look great with that subtle red stripe.
    Scotland is only 1/5 the size of Montana, but Scotland has over 3,000 castles and Montana has none.

    Yes the burgundy is the New Banker Vest - Burgundy, all wool and the red is the Madrona Vest - Cinnabar, composition 50% wool 50% polyester/viscose.
    Both very comfortable and well made.

    Looking good Downunder. The only thing missing is a wee dram in your hand.

    You look fantastic, as always! The new waistcoat and sporran are wonderful additions.
