I haven't bought any Harris Tweeds there for quite a while, but today is the one-day yearly 50% Off sale, so we will see...

DoC's enthusiasm for Harris Tweeds has landed him in hot water on occasion, like the several jackets that don't fit him properly. He's not the skinny marinks that he once was, and has a bit of blind spot to that fact.

I'm encouraging him to be pickier now, but I'm not always along when he makes another find.

Aye, that would be me...

Well, I suspect there may be one or two xmarkers that might be wiling to buy the ones that shrank in the closet .....?

Hmm, I already have pics of two them, just need to measure them with a tape... I'll get on that.

Never thought of checking the thrift shops. I really want to find a tweed sport coat and have my wife reshape it to wear with a kilt. Thanks for the idea!

Got to go to my one of our local theatres, where my son was in a play this year, for their awards night Saturday. The theme was Black & White, which I chose to interpret that as 'black-tie', and wore my new PC (after all there IS white in the tartan.)
