			My new Irish Saffron!!
		
			
				
					It arrived in the UK six days after I ordered it, but has been sat in a depot thanks to ParcelForce (aka ParcelFarce) because I was unlucky enough to lose the Customs Lottery and get clobbered for VAT.    
 It's from SWK and is the Standard model.  It's lovely!!  The front apron needs an iron, but here are a few pics:
 
 
  
 
  
 
  
 Next on my list is a Weathered Mackenzie.

					Looking very sharp, Rebel!!  A friend here in Jacksonville, Florida, ordered a saffron from SWK and couldn't be happier.  Enjoy!

					Looks great!I can't wait to get a solid colour kilt.
 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.

					Very nice.  Congratulations.  Thankfully, we don't have the VAT in this country,...at least not until next year (if the politicians have their way.)

					I have a saffron heavyweight myself. I love the thing! It looks great with black hose, doesn't it? I also like to wear purple hose with mine (along with navy blue... The Denver Broncos uniform colors are orange and navy blue, so I have to support to the home team! And I can't think of a better way to do it.) Next Stillwater on my list is a green shadow tartan- unless they get those Black Stewarts in my size again. 
 And did I mention that the saffron looks really good on you?
