Looks like fun!
and that's just about the finest box-pleated kilt I've ever seen
It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

I'm glad that Ern is having such a grand time, I'm ever so jealous and sorry I was unavoidably detained by work commitments and so missed meeting him and all the other X Markers at the Gathering. He is the epitome of the kilted gentleman.
Nay worries, I'm sure there will be a next time.

Paul? If it's Robert's double box you are refering to you should visit Lady Chrystel's website for more examples of how sad it is to be skint. Don't quote me; but if you provide the cloth I believe you can have one for only 200 euro's. I have one on my wish list but I'm currently waiting for either a lottery win or the pound to dominate the currency markets and the euro to fall on it's ****. I'm depressed now... Neither are likely.

Thanks for the info... I'd love one of my own but I'm in just about the same situation as you. I think that the Buchanan kilt I'm saving up for will now be box pleated and I have bookmarked her site.
"You provide your own cloth,
6 metres Double Box Pleated Kilt :
€ 200 + shipping (see rates below)
For a tweed kilt, (6.5 metres) add € 10"
€200 seems great for the amount of skill required to box pleat so neatly. It's next on my kilt list 
Cheers
