    I just got the Robertson Ancient Hunting and I am definitely calling it quits right about there. Seriously. I'm going to get rid of a couple of my "starter" kilts and two jackets. I may go for another sporran (probably a Thorfinn) next year and maybe get a duplicate of my current kilt pin but I'm really going to try to bag it for a while.

    I found the revelation that most Scots, if they have any kilts at all, may have one for "good" and that's all to be kind of ironic. Here are all of these other folks running around acquiring kilts by the dozens and the fellas in the "Old Country" seem to be content to have maybe one for good (and maybe one for knocking about if they have the inclination and the extra bucks).

    The economy being what it is, an austerity program might not be the dumbest thing to embark on.

    I'm not a Scot so my reasons for wearing the kilt aren't in any way associated with what the gents from the "Old Country" do or don't do.

    But I hear you about the economy--that's why I'm not in any hurry to spend big bucks on a top o' the line tank.
