    Unhappy The next 6 months will be the longest EVER

    I decided to bite the bullet and purchase a Matt Newsome 4 yard box pleated kilt, so any tips on how to make the time go faster??? I was thinking cryogenic freezing, but I doubt my job would give me the leave of absence for that.

    While your waiting, buy some fabric and make your own kilt. Six months from now you might have a dozen new ones to go with the one Matt makes you.

    Would not Scotch be a better language to learn and enjoy?

    Actually, right now it's closer to a four month wait. I've been trying to get the wait time down for a while. Right now I'm workin on kilts ordered in early October.

    Glad to hear you are still behind, Matt.

    The time will pass quickly enough, and Matt's work is worth the wait.
