    Great news and a good choice of Tartan, Rich. I've had my eye on that one myself. I look forward to the pictures when you receive it.

He put a bonnet on his head, and stuck the Fraser emblem, a sprig of yew, in it. With the battle cry, A'Chaisteal Dhunaidh and the scream of the pipes, they charged to battle.

    It was a hard choice, I really Like the "Isle of Skye" a lot but I wanted something different. After going to the Pleasanton games and seeing a band in the IOS and a couple of other wearers, I moved the IOS down a notch on my kilt bucket list.

    Richrail,

    Congratulations on your new acqusition. I really like the tartan. Not much of a Jonesing this time. Maybe I should get another kilt. Only have one, and seems from what I have read: kilts are like jello. There is always room for more. Congratulations again!!!!!!!
