    Nighthawk-

    We decided on April 25th of next year. We just signed the caterer today - the guy really liked the swatch of the USAKilts Clark and said the colors were perfect for some of his stuff. You going to make the Kilt night next Saturday?

    Sionnach-

    I was going to ask you what the Japanese said on the wall behind you. I did TKD for a long while and after a hiatus I think I'll be getting back into something. Either boxing, brazilian Jiujutsu or Muai Thai. I really miss the martial arts.
    Oh, and my other passion is to get a Triumph Thruxton next year.

    Cheers-
    Brian

    Brian- The calligraphy on the wall means "Mindfulness" I believe the Japanese is- kokoro kiburi. On the file cabinet is another- katsu hyabi- "the principles (of aikido) are universal." I don't know if you can see that one in the photo. I tend to pick that spot because there is a little wall I can place the camera on to do a timed photo ( since my oldest made off with my tripod.) All the best with your wedding prep, your choice of martial art and bike. I am sure you will find them all rewarding.

    Well, I got it but it's a tad bit too small. My measurement came in at around 32.5" so I ordered the small (30-33). I just sent off for a size bigger from Jerry (34-37) and I'll be sending this small one back. But I really have to say it's incredibly nice how quickly it got here, along with my new flashes and pin. Hopefully the replacement will be here in time for the weekend's festivities here in Colorado!

    Crossing fingers for you. But I am sure it will, if in stock. Question: when you say 32.5 is that waist at navel or length to knee? Just curious- mine is the 38, but I vascillate ad think next time I'll try 36.

    32.5 at navel - but mine moves a little too, depending on how much I work out or the amount of Guinness drank.

    The 30-33 seemed way too tight, and even showed a bit of the velcro, plus I figured I'll be gaining some weight after I get married. She's a damn fine cook.

    I guess I'll have to get...creative! Shouldn't go more into detail though as this is a family friendly site.

    Hey Irishcoloradan
    You'll really love the Irish National. Got mine last year from Jerry at SWK. That's me on the end at the Long's Peak Scots-Irish Celtic fest last month.
