What is it, I wonder, about the kilting fraternity that makes everyone so friendly, warm and generous? Just think how different everything would be if the World Leaders were all kilties!!
Thanks again Rocky, and
Take care,
Ham.
Man, if you get your tartan registered, especially if it's all weathered, ancient and muted, I'd wear it. Especially if it's a USAK!

Hats off to you Hamish.
I believe in life, you reap what you sew. I've never met you personally, although I'd like to resolve that at some point but this thread says a great deal about you!

"Courtesy is contagious" is part of the answer.
Discourteous people do occasionally show up here, but in mere days they either change or disappear. The mods and the members maintain an environment that discourages discourtesy and encourages courtesy.
Postscript: Self-confidence is probably involved also. Self-confident people are likely to choose courtesy because they don't feel threatened. Something akin to noblesse oblige perhaps.

Ooooops!
Thank you Cherub. You have prompted me into checking back and I find, to my horror, that I failed to post notification of the arrival of Nos: 91 and 92 in The Kilt Kollection! How could I?! Well, I have no idea, but I will rectify this with a new thread as soon as possible, maybe this evening.
Take care,
Ham.
