#1 can't help you there!

#2 start browsing in thrift/charity shops, commission a knitter or try a frankensock operation combining the leg of one with the cuff of another to match.

btw, if that's you in your avatar, I have to say that the two of you lookk amazingly alike!

From what I recall, the "Jacaranda Jocks" are still around and are a reserve artillery battery in the SANDF. I'll message a friend of mine who is a member of the Transvaal Scottish and see what light he can shed on the subject.

I don't know if there is a regimental association for the PH; I know the Transvaal Scottish, the Witwatersrand Rifles, and the South African Irish all have fairly active ones. To my knowledge, only the First City, the Cape Town Highlanders and the Transvaal Scottish are the only kilted regiments in the SANDF; others such as the Wits, the SA Irish, the Dukes, etc. maintain pipe bands.
