    Working on a new convert

    I have been kited for over a year now and love it. I am out most weekends in my UK or tank when the time is right. My son is planning his wedding and I have been trying to convince him to go kilted. His wife to be supports the idea. He is reluctant. So for his birthday I told him I would buy him a kilt so he could see if he liked wearing it. Great news, he sent me his measurements and now I am waiting on a color selection or style. I will keep everyone informed as to my progress.
    I drink to the health of another,
    And the other I drink to is he -
    In the hope that he drinks to another,
    And the other he drinks to is me!

    Congratulations (to you for pursuing the conversion - or inclusion - of your son) (and to your son and future daughter-in-law for the impending nuptials)!!!

    My nephew recently asked me to order a kilt for him. I got him a Wallace Economy from Sillwater, he has worn it out to a friends birthday and is really happy with it as am I. I will get pics soon. Not sure that I would call him a convert yet, but it its nice to be able to foster kilt wearing within the family.

    Still Working on Him

    I just delivered a Black UK to my son as a birthday gift. He seemed pretty excited. Hope I hope to see him in it soon.
