    you never know what you might find

    theres a vintage clothing shop in my town, a friend of mine told me they had a pile of old kilts so i went in to see looked through and found they were all boys kilts or kilted skirts, then something caught my eye in the jackets, a black formal kilt jacket which looks to me that it might be argyle style, £10

    naturally my wallet was out pretty sharpish, got home and discovered that it is also my size and fits beautifully, what a find

    Well that will make your day! Good find!
    I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear

    Well done! A couple of days ago, my wife found a kilt skirt at the local thrift shop that fits her perfectly. $5.00...!

    I wish I was that lucky. I found a nice suit jacket at Goodwill and will have my wife convert it into a kilt jacket. Congratulations on your find.
