Alright, I have a small problem and I wanted to get some advice.

Fortunately for me, when I planned out my wedding I gave myself plenty of time to get everything ordered and made. Good thing, because it took the local Scottish shop more than 4 months to get my kilt in. They kept blaming it on customs in New York.

Come on - I'm not stupid, people. The store clerk was obviously the one at fault here. She couldn't order a cheeseburger at McDonald's if you drove her up to the speaker and that was the only thing on the menu.

She once told my best man, when he called in about his order, that the rest of the groomsmen in the wedding party were wearing straight ties and was he sure he wanted to wear a bow tie. He said considering he was the ONLY guy in the wedding party that he would probably stick with the bow tie.

Anyway, the end result is that I got my kilt two weeks before the wedding, but the flashes never came in! They gave me a pair of black flashes and refunded my flash money (hehe - flash money), but... I'd really rather have flashes in my kilt tartan (Ancient Campbell of Argyll).

Anyone have any mill contacts I can email or call to see about getting some flashes made up for me?

I understand there might be slight variations in the tartan pattern between mills, and my best bet would be to contact the mill that made my particular order, but that doesn't bother me so much. I think their smaller size would negate or nullify any minor differences.

Ineptitude, incompetence, and a lack of responsibility - those are the things that bother me.

Any information or advice would be greatly appreciated.
