Thanx guys,

Yeah that photo isnt too dissimilar to what I had in mind? Would an Argyll jacket do the trick. My wife-to be isn't too keen on bow ties and I prefer smart cravats and fatboy ties if there is enough waistcoat to cover your chest. With the PC jacket and vest there isnt. So that photo is pretty damen close even the colour of the waistcoat. Doesn't look to bad to me? Any other opinions on that? Anyone with similar photos?

I am wearing Teviotdale tartan from Hawick
