    Pay it Forward #2

    When I read the post from Mr. Porter about giveing his kilt away to a new or needy person I though what a good idea so after tartan day yesterday a group of us went to a pub in town eat and talk.I met a young man there that was helping run tartan day's who liked the idea of the kilt but did not have one . He was about the same size as me and though of Mr. porters post and told I had a kilt that if it fit him he could have it. as I have been able to get 2 kilts that are a big step up from the SWK Tthrifty I had. He came over today and it fit he , so he is the new owner of a SWK Thrifty BW kilt.I know he will be hooked once he puts it on as I have been after putting on a kilt. This post is about the best people in the world here on xmarksthescot and how you all have made me a bether person by your posts,kindness and the grate vibe I get from this site.......you ROCK!!!!!........Kerry

    Very nice thing you did... I'm sure the young man is very pleased with his new kilt.
