			My new kilt
		
			
				
					Years ago, I had a very nice kilt that met a very bad end (thanks ex-wife). I've been without one for several years. This Monday, I ordered a Stillwater thrifty kilt. It arrived today, and I am very pleased.Forgive the brown hose and lack of sporran, those are next on my list.

					Wonderful looking kilt.  Looks a tad low.  You will feel it right when it is hitting you in the back of your knees.  Just need to pull it up a bit.  The socks are fine.  Let them slide down, wear boots for the time being.  A sporran is needed if you want to carry things but you can do well - especially in athletics - without it.  Penacook, eh?  You going to Loon?  Topsham?  Will look for you.
 Congratulations and keep enjoying it.  The smile says it all.

					Congratulations!  I got my first kilt earlier this week, but I'm sure after being without one for a while, you were just as glad as I was to see it delivered. 
 Yours is a sharp kilt, though I must confess, I may need to view it through sunglasses...

					It's true, Buchanan tartan really should have a volume control. I guess I'll have to wear the heck out of it to fade it a bit.As to socks, I should have worn my army warm weather socks. Dark green and come darn near to the knee.
 
 And yes, if at all humanly possible I'll be at Loon (as a spectator). I'll have my wife and girlies, whom we recently discovered are MacLarens.

	Wish I was going. Our clan AGM is there this year. Stop by the Clan MacTavish tent and say "Hi" to my kinsmen if you have a mind to.

					Nice! Yes, tug it up a wee bit, pair it with Army socks & boots - you'll be good to go! Perhaps you'll spy a nice daywear sporran at the next event.
