Oh yes, when I used to smoke a pipe ( for 30 years or so) the hose top was the place it was kept when not in use.I usually keep a £20 note there too,it is such a bind scrabbling around one's sporran looking for money.It is fairly common practice to store bits of kit in our hose tops, here, although I have not come across a mobile phone ,yet. Your kilt will look a treat when the sporran arrives.By the way, congratulations on the pretty lady on your arm and I rather fancy that that is a fine tartan you are wearing.
