    USA Kilts ordred

    After a brief and completely non contentious negotiation session, I was able to get approval from the local office of budget and finance for the purchase of a semi traditional kilt from USA Kilts for $219. As I debated at length between the Firefighters Memorial, Clergy or Sutherland tartan, I discovered a $10 upcharge for my waist to hip ratio. Well that put the cost of a semi traditional within $20 of the sale price of a 5 yard wool in Celtic Nations Tartan which I also like. As my maternal Grandfather is English and maternal Grandmother Scottish, Celtic Nations was only appropriate I explained, plus I gather from many comments here that wool is the way to go if budget allows. So I managed to sweet talk my way to a few more dollars and placed my order. Now I find myself wishing Rockie's time machine applied to made to order wear because I think it would be pushing my luck to ask for more money for a rush fee.(especially since I already snuck another pair of kilt hose in with the order) Oh well, waiting is such sweet sorrow.

    P.S. I think the lady in charge of the local office of budget and finance is sweet on me. I might have to think of something real nice to do for her.
