Thumbs up This has been a MONSTER day!!!

I always have parcels delivered to me at my work address so I don't have to worry about packages left on my porch sprouting legs and wandering away.

Today in the mail, I received...
  • My USA Kilts Douglas casual -- thanks, Rocky!!!
  • The balmoral that triolamj was so nice as to sell me for a terrific price -- thanks, Max!!!
  • The Celtic knot buttons from buttondrawer.com that I've been waiting for. Now I can send the gray tweed jacket I found on eBay to vmac3205 so she can turn it into an Argyll.
  • Finally, the really cool linen flat cap my wife ordered me for Valentine's Day.

I may need to head home early. It's been a really big day!

Get back to work man!! how are you going to afford more kilts if you keep taking the afternoon off.

Nice haul to all turn up at once. Bet you're glad you didn't take the morning off...

Better go buy a lottery ticket. This seems to be your lucky day. Well done!

Jealousy abounds at the moment, it seems. Congrats!

I didn't know anyone here did alterations of tweed jackets... this is tempting now.
