When does buying kilts stop being a hobby and become grounds for an intervention?

Be well,

Yes, I should join the enablers list. Poor Yeti, he doesn't know what happens when i get fascinated by something.

Ah yes, it's abominable.

Hellfire,

Ain't an addiction until you've got over 100 kilts...unless you're starting a museum like Ham...then numbers don't count...

Me, I lost count, was over 50, sold some I outgrew...cruel to keep them hanging unused in the closet. Current count is ONLY 48...

Now...wanna talk about kilt accessory addiction??? kilt hose, garters, flashes, belts, sporrans, jackets, vests, hats, greatcoats, garment bags, hangers, gizmos, Woolite, ad infinitum....

Now, where did I put my wish list....

This sounds very familar to me. So you say YOU have a problem?

I got the blessing of an addictive personality. Once I start something, I never stop. Maybe that's why I've never see a need an intervention or support group...

I thought I was doing well. I stopped at three kilts (for now). But when you mentioned accessories.... I was up at 5:30 this morning checking on the bidding on a Gordon Highlanders sporran badge that was ending on Ebay. I've recently bought sgian dubhs, flasks, kilt pins, an Argyle jacket on Ebay, and the old-fashioned garters from Matt Newsome. And I'm watching another 10 items on Ebay! Aaarrrrgggghhhhh! Maybe I DO have a problem.
