    Talking eBay Find!

    I was trawling eBay and I came across this lovely kilt - it's a Buchanan tartan.


    It was a steal at £25

    Some people have all the luck. If I would have bought it, it would have been for a toy. Great find.

    You lucky IT person, you! The Buchanan always makes an impression.

    Glad you like it, I've got another kilt on the way - it's an addiction - a Wallace Tartan should be here early next week

    You must be in the 30-34" range- I always see kilts in those sizes. Rarely do I see 37-38" (which is where I tend to reside).

    You need to start buying sporrans though. All your shots are sporranless, despite your protestations that you do, in fact, own one.

    -jk- I dont' normally wear a sporran round the house either.

    Buchanan is very distinctive and handsome. Good for you. Be careful on mad accumulation. They might lose their distinctiveness for you. Take time to savor them.

    I didn't realise I was breaking the law I don't like my current sporran as it hangs a little too low

    I'm gonna look for a sporran tomorrow, there's a good shop near me

    Thanks for the advice, I'm making the Wallace my last one for a while, and I'm not wearing the kilt out as much as I used to. It's only now and then I wear it at home where before it was more kinda overkill They are very comfortable, this takes me upto 7 kilts, I had to throw the Black Watch one as it was too long, and went a little past my knees even when I was seated I'll post a pic when it arrives
