This rings a bell for me. I had been hoping to wear a Mighty Men tartan kilt to an Angus Buchan evangelical gathering here in Port Elizabeth in March. But now I hear that the first public batch of tartan will only be available in February . . .
Perhaps I should remind the wife that she said I could enter Matt Newsome’s annual kilt raffle. That way I might have a kilt in my clan tartan by March . . .
