    I know I said it last night but Congratulations on the new kilt, seeing yours makes the wait for mine almost unbearable, good shots, thanks for sharing them, oh and nice t-shirt.

    I seem to recall a certain person complaining that mine had been made first...

    Well that certain person has certainly got theirs first! oop:

    Pictures looks great and in a lovely setting too!

    (Wonder if mine has got past Newfoundland on its journey - it will be a week tomorrow since it set off!)

    Thanks for posting the pictures, Grant.

    I can only repeat what McMurdo said - I can hardly wait.

    Hmmmm . . . . Perhaps I'll have to take the week off work, so I'll be at home the minute it arrives.

    Trefor, we are all waiting to see you in your 8 yarder, would be even better to see it in person. I drove an hour north to pick up my kilt as funnily enough we had a kilt night there in Fergus. Poste between Canada and UK is faster than between Canada and the US or even Canada cross town. I am actually surprised that you still don't have your kilt after a week. Poor Barclay had to drive about 12 hours up here as he was knew well that poor old Dobbin up here is very slow. The only thing I appreciate Canada Post for is that Starbkjrus will have to wait weeks for his for all the goading of me and the bribing of MacHummel...

    I almost forgot (actually I did), I love the teflon coating on the tartan. It makes sliding into the car so easy, I don't need to adjust the pleats except out of habit and if I'm ever stuck on the 401 in the height of summer I'd be able to fry some eggs on my kilt (probably should've got the air conditioning afterall!).

    Nobody is waiting as much as me I assure you Grant!

    I would have driven happily for longer than an hour but that isn't easy when there is no Atlantic bridge!

    As to the post - depends whether or not it gets diverted for Customs assessment or not, certainly small packages have crossed pretty quickly.

    But of course I will rush with the piccies asap upon arrival!
