    No. She actually already made this one - I just sent it back to her to be resized quite a bit.

    Richland: No rule on chain vs. strap, just that the chain tends to wear at the apron fabric whereas the strap does not.

    Turpin: Pleats may be a bit. The camera seems to have gone AWOL. We'll try to get that sorted as soon as possible.

    Dirk Skene: That it is. Just a cheapo pewter one - you've seen them. I'm going to try to pick up a better looking one at the Glengarry Highland Games this summer.

    Good going SC. Spend a couple of days in Kingston with CG competitions. Beautiful city, need to take pics at and around Fort Henry (but not at the penn).

    Funny. I lived all year two blocks away from the penitentiary - nasty old Paul B. was a neighbour of mine.

    Welcome, and warning. Kilts are like potato chips, one is never enough. Soon you'll have a huge wardrobe of kilt attire.

    I know you can fight. But it's our wits that make us men.

    Congratulations on the new kilt, it's not that a chain is wrong per sé it's just that a chain wears on a kilt more than a leather sporran strap.

    You look good, and it sounds like the time spent here has been good for you.
