How could anyone not stop by for a chat?

Quite right Matt, this is an extremely comfortable kilt, especially in hot weather, and I'd advise anyone looking for a "summer time" kilt to follow David Pope's advice and go with a heavy weight, 5-yard kilt. I'd also suggest that old wool bonnets can be dry cleaned with no adverse effect; the one I'm wearing in the photo is about 15-20 years old and for $3 at my local cleaners it looks as good as it did when purchased, wee moth hole excepted!

Scott,
I showed my wife, Stephanie this picture of you and she is rather fond of your moustache! You look very smart indeed (love the tie and shirt).
Cheers,
