A seventh Kilt!!!!
Just a quick entry to celebrate.
Last week when I posted about the Kilted Skirts I'd gotten Diane I mentioned something I was bidding on on Ebay.
I won it!!!
After waiting since I was fifteen years old I finally have a Macdonald of Clan Ranald tank in my size.
All for 54.99 pounds!!!

As soon as I get it there will be pictures.
For now I just wanted to gloat.

Wow Arlen, that is a sweet kilt. Looking forward to your review and photos!
"A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon

Wow congrats don't usually have that kind of luck with ebay. It's either real cheap or I get out bidded at the end. Wear it well and enjoy.

Okay, being new on this board..I have a question. I have never heard a kilt called a "tank". Where did that term come from?
