    I'm Home!

    Flew in yesterday afternoon. It was a long couple of days - still on Middle Eastern time right now. After grabbing a shower and a bite to eat, I went upstairs to the closet. My space in the closet seems to have shrunk over the past 14 months. I used to have 1/3 of the space and a bit on the floor for my shoes. Now, I only have space for my 8 kilts and my shoes are residing outside of the closet. Taking it all in stride, I decided to try on my new kilts. First up was my USA Kilts Premier. I first put on my Argyle hose and brogues, then the kilt. I wanted the lass to see first hand how it will look. She seemed to like it and told me to put on my jacket as well. The good news is that I might need to have it taken in a bit around the belly. After a short work day (about 2 hours) I came home and put on my Thompson Camel. I really like this tartan - perhaps my living environment has influenced this, but it's really nice. Once I find my camera, I'll be sure to take some pictures.
    I'm a well rounded guy - English motorcycles, Irish brew, and Scottish clothes and music.
