    Time question

    The day I have been waiting for has arrived. I just received the email telling me that my candy order has shipped and includes a casual kilt as well as some kilt related accessories. How can I speed up time so that the delivery date arrives faster?😎 btw we here at Xmarks and K&C need to advocate for a kilt emoji.

    When you post, it's almost at the right end of the first row of style buttons above the window where you compose your message.

    or just type 'kd' between two colons; 'piper' between colons for the other one I've added here.

    Thanks! I'll I still say there should be an official Apple and Android kilt emoji available.

    Congrats!

    The anticipation is hard to deal with. On the plus side, you'll get some relief soon!

    Which tartan did you go with?

    Scottish national tartan. I'm an Urquhart, but I already have a kilt in that tartan. I've lost it somehow because I'm returning to kilts after several years and I seem to have misplaced it in the interim. After looking at all the possible options, returning to kilts could get expensive.😄

    Many items in the kilting world come under the heading "if you have to ask the price, you can't afford it". In a similar vein, asking the above question reveals you haven't been read into
    that project yet. A polite query to the appropriate desk at the specified agency indicates this activity may be above either your pay grade or your clearance level. For your convenience,
    I have requested that the appropriate forms be forwarded to your email; if they have not arrived within three weeks, this project may be considered outside your current scope of
    operational capacity, but MAY include the proper paperwork. In this case, submit in triplicate, properly coded. A 60 day waiting period is allowed to examine your readiness.

    Good luck, and happy kilting.



    Of course, by that time, your kilt will have arrived.

    The answer is obvious really. What you should have done is order your kilt attire three months earlier, then you would have it now.

    Actually the estimated delivery date of Monday, December 13th was updated to Friday, December 10th. So I did find a way to speed up time. 😎
