    Talking The New Mexico "Cut Oot"

    Haha. Ok, so here's my first attempt at replicating a legendary Xmarker pose. I give you:

    The "Cardboard Cut Oot"


    Sorry, no muckle big clock here, but it IS in the kitchen.

    A fine "Cut oot" but I think ya got the shoes wrong....no real real high tops?

    And, curse you Bradley....you've reminded me that I'll need to wear neck ties with the jacket currently en route...my first. I do so hate neckties...

    Hah! Maybe I can be defiant and wear contrasting tartan neckties with my tartan kilts!...ahhh the eyesore protest!

    Ties...say it ain't so!

    Haha. I actually rather like putting on a neck tie now and again. The one in the picture is actually an Air Force issue. I couldn't find my solid black tie. Nikki misplaced it I'm certain. But, stumbled across that one in a panic fueled search (we were running late for her aunt's wedding.) But, it goes really well with the Gunn tartan, if I do say so myself.

    It does look good with the Gunn, interesting choice for flashes as well. Nice "cut oot" now all you is need a Welsh cilt.
