    SShhh, 2 new kilts...

    Don't tell my wife but... on a thread recently, flyv65 (Bryan) offered up a kilt he not longer had a use for. After much haggling, emailing, and other sundry communications, we settled on a price (both of us convinced we got the best deal!), and he graciously sent it (shpping included in the final price) and I received it last Wednesday. Needless to say (and unfortunately for my wallet!) it fit perfectly. I wore it to class yesterday and so I guess now I have to pay for it! I also won an auction on eBay today for this olive UK. Got it for almost the same as on the UK site, but faster shipping. Can anyone detect a preference pattern with my kilt buying (other than that I keep buying them)?

    Here are 2 pics of the Tan Uk:

    Someone has been getting those subliminal messages of: buy kilts, buy kilts and buy them now.

    Congratulations on your new arrivals!

    SB, in practical terms you are correct, and in realistic terms, I need to go to bed and am too tired to count! Since this class I am in this week has no Internet access, my evenings are full of trying to check home email, work email, XMarks, other boards, and check my eBay auctions (both buy and sell).

    However, I will give it a slightly tired (and to be honest 3 glasses of wine!) try (in purchase order):
    SWK Standard - Nightstalker
    SWK HW - Solid black
    USAK - Blackwatch Semi-trad
    AK - Tan
    UK - Mocker heather grey
    PK - Blue gray lined (Waiting for)
    PK - Brown herringbone lined (waiting for)
    Scottish National - 16oz generic blend
    UK Originak - Tan
    UK Mocker - Olive (Waiting for)
    Pride of Scotland - eBay (Waiting for)

    Hey KCW, ain't it great to have a choice of kilts?

    I wear my UK tan original and olive mocker A LOT....ironically, I got my olive mocker "previously worn" too.

    I saw this subject and had to laugh. I bought a kilt off eBay just over a week ago, but did not tell my wife until after the deed was done.

    It's always easier to apologize later, than to get permission before.

    Not that I NEED permission! Nope, not me! I wear the pants in this family!




    Oh, wait. No, I don't.

    I'm the same way. When I want it, I buy it. Thankfully, I don't get much grief from it.
