    Hamish, thanks for your encouragement.
    Freelander: this will be kilt number eight, I told my wife that 8 in the Bible, numerically, represents "new beginning" and wearing kilts is a new beginning

    (now what does 9 represent? haha, Hamish, 40 stands for "time of testing" are you "tested" by 40 kilts?)



    Bubba: you've solved a mystery for me. I wear a wedding ring, but my wife does not, she says her fingers are the wrong shape for a ring.

    That explains why she can read MY mind, and I cannot read hers!!

    Ron: buy your kilts first, then get a wife

    Tested, Graham? Me? The only way I am "tested" by having these kilts is, each morning when I have to decide which one to wear!

    Uhhh! Sorry, but I have to upset your calculations, Graham. The current total is 41 ........ and I have two more on order (delivery: early to mid December. Just a little Christmas gift to myself! )

    Both are plain colour casual kilts, Graham.

    1) A muted brown from our sponsor (KiltStore.net):



    but I have opted for a 7yd rather than the standard 6yd.


    2) A dark grey, but not quite charcoal, "TFCK" 6 yarder in woollen worsted.

    No image of this one, as it's a one-off!

    Then go for it Graham. Go for it!

    I forgot to mention, by the way, that that is not me in the photo! The pills I take are good - but not THAT good

    Ham, you rotter,

    You have just dashed my hopes. I was about to ask you what type of pills you were taking, because I always wished that I had started wearing a kilt at the age of the guy in the picture (or even earlier).

    Rob (who will have to search again for the eternal youth pill)

    Graham,

    I think that you should seriously consider the Australian tartan.

    It would look good with your new leather jacket.
