    Cryptic Fed-Ex Email

    I got a cryptic email from Fed-Ex yesterday. I get spam with UPS and Fed-Ex tracking numbers all the time. I usually ignore and delete them.

    But for some reason I decided to open this one. I scroll down and see that it is from the Scottish Tartan Museum. That can only mean one thing. Matt has finished my kilt and it will be delivered today.

    I had actually forgotten about it for a few weeks during the holiday rush. This is a cool new years present.

    Boy, I bet you've got a tough 48 hour wait ahead of you now! Congrats on the new kilt.

    Yup,

    Your nice new, box pleated kilt in the MacLeod of Harris tartan is on the way to you -- wear it in good health!

    I will be sure to post some photos as soon as possible.

    I plan to wear it to Burns Nicht. The BlackWatch I made is nice but its kinda like women and their dresses. You gotta wear the new one to the party :-)

    BTW, the kilt Matt made for me came in not long before Christmas -- You're gonna LOVE that kilt!

    Matt and some of the others will be along shortly to tell you that you do not need a clan affiliation to wear a particular tartan.

    I agree.

    I have the affiliation with McLeod and McGregor. Now I am going to order McGregor as soon as the money is available.
