To all,

With sincerest appologies,

I've been thinking about this since last night after I read a reply form Laird Hamish himself in the newbie thread and thought I should clear this up. As I stated in the newbie thread, I am very new to the kilted clan here at XMTS. So new, in fact, that I have not as yet purchased my first kilt and do not believe that it will be here prior to the arrival of his Lairdship. But I am chomping at the bit to do so. Just can't quite decide which maker to use yet. I'm leaning real hard toward USAKilts though.

I did not want to mis-lead anyone in any way and I am still willing to assist in making arrangements or providing any information that I can prior to his Lairdship's arrival.

I have though, spent a great deal of time researching my family history through to the Buchanan clan on my fathers side and the Keith and Scott clan on my mothers side. As you can see, my family has deep roots when it comes to Scotland, it's just taken me a while to catch up and get serious my history and becoming a member of the So Cal kilted Rabble.

So, I hope this doesn't change anyones opinion as to my character, honor, integrity or sincerity.
