    Red face New Maple Leaf tartan kilt

    Hi all,

    I went just to receive my new kilt from Cairngorm (Hector Russell) in Toronto.
    This kilt is reserved for special occasions.

    I opted for Maple Leaf because I'm a Canadian from the province of Quebec that will stay in that beautiful country for at least 15 years.

    Here myself dressed with it in an Argyle configuration.

    A fine looking kilt, Cairngorm does have a wonderful selection of merchandise. Congratulations on the new kilt.

    Great looking kilt sir, you wear it well. You know - this tartan is getting as popular around here as Isle of Skye these day.

    Interesting thought, sounds like a new poll.

    Yeah, well, I'm the president of the Carolinas chapter of SOKS and I'm still waiting, too...

    You'll be thrilled with it - Pete's handiwork has quickly become my favourite kilt. I travel to Houston semi-regularly (to the Shepherd / Dallas / Dunlavey area), maybe on my next trip down we can have a Maple Leaf pint raising ceremony.

    I second that!
