Hot on the heels of the delivery of my 'Bro-Leon' kilt from Brittany, I received an E-mail from Barb Tewkesbury advising me that she has mailed my 'Isle of Skye' 8 yarder from up-State New York! This should be delivered here in about a week or so. ... How can I wait that long?!!

Next Saturday, I go to London to meet up with Howie Nicholsby and will be taking delivery from him of my 'Craig (Ancient Colours)' 8 yard Lochcarron Strome kilt from Geoffrey (Tailor), Edinburgh. (At the same time, I will be choosing the fabric for a fourth kilt suit from TFCK to wear to Howie's wedding in June!)

Last, but by no means least: next month Robert of R-Kilts in Ontario, Canada will be personally delivering the second leather kilt he has made for me. This one is in his gorgeous 'Bronze' leather. Robert and his father are very kindly making a special detour from their visit to Holland to spend two days with me in Storrington. What kind of service is that?!!

Have I won what? Oh, the Lottery! No. No, unfortunately I have not - but I have not had any new kilts since last October!
