Excellent.

I can't see them either. Great thread though...

Lest we forget.

Sorry to hear you're not so well and I do hope recovery is swift. I too frequently enjoy the custom sporran you made for me. Your sporrans are superb but don't damage your health over them. Best...

6,216 days British Army. Left in order to take up other duties as a single parent. Lots of interesting places, many good times, many lasting friendships. I prefer to remember that aspect of it.

Well, here's the one from the start of this thread again,

And here's another from last...

The recently acquired HoS Jacket and waistcoat in pictures. Apologies for the delay, I've been a bit busy.

I've been looking at civil war regalia for some time and wondering how it would look paired with a kilt. most of the shell jackets at least seem about the right length. Yours looks fine to me and...

I agree with you Colin that the term "contemporary" is a bit loose for an article such as this one and I also think it's more "unadorned traditional" than wildly modern.

The reason I used the...

I'm not sure that's the reason, there is a Senior NCO far right of picture who is wearing a maroon/white diced...

Part of my Christmas haul this year included a contemporary styled jacket and waistcoat (no epaulettes, no cuffs or fancy buttons) made from 16oz Cheviot tweed (Marton Mills) in "mocha reeve", a sort...

I like that very much. Very cool. Did you manage to get the chanters with the missing holes made in the end? I like your low D whistles as well.

Eh up Mate. Nice one!! I'm not around as much as I used to be but I still enjoy your contributions when I am. In fact it was you who first welcomed me here when I joined six years ago.

I agree the Scotweb price of £512 for eight yards (single width) that it would take to make a kilt is err... a bit ambitious. It may be the very special Dalgliesh 15oz variant, the finest quality...

Thank you for adding that Duke, it's useful. I note on the same site that the USA Poppy Appeal Chairman and the USA Poppy Appeal Representative can be contacted for more info.

I realise you may be a bit late to get UK derived products in time for 11 November but a bit of forward planning for next year might be an option. I wear a poppy lapel badge all year round so I'll...

Excellent thread but oh woe is me... Of the hundreds of photos I've posted here, not a single one makes it to the final edit... (sob!) I am a broken man I tell you.
:lol:

Fascinating. Thanks very much for posting this thread. I too look forward to seeing the finished article.

I really enjoyed that. Thanks for putting it up.

Nice one mate! Top class.

Alan, I hope you have a great holiday to remember and look forward to seeing your pictures.

I'd love to be able to get up there and shake you warmly by the hand and maybe split a couple of stiff...

Couldn't get to this so thanks for the round-up Chas.

Can't get to Ashbourne next weekend either which is a shame, made a brilliant camping weekend of it last year and met some smashin' folk (who...

Great outfit. Like the cantle on your sporran.

My 'want one' gland has just become awfully inflamed. That's a beaut!! Love the knotwork using leather lace. Not seen anything like that before.
