    Always nice to see..

    So, there I was minding my own business at the bus stop when it happened; two gentlemen walked past in kilts! They did a double-take when they saw me in my kilt and we struck up a conversation. They were both wearing Sport Kilts (Black Watch tartans) but mentioned that they had ordered "full" kilts (from what they described, they meant tanks) from Alexis Malcolm. We talked a bit, I wrote down the web address for these forums, and invited them to surf on over and join. I also mentioned of the quality and prices of the xmarks sponsors.

    Before this I only knew of myself and one other man in Seattle who wore the kilt.. now I know of four men here. Always nice to see people kilted

    Kilt the planet!

    Why did he spell it blackwatch?

    Ardchoille sounds like you've got the makings of a kilt night. Imagine showing up in your new Tewkesbury or Newsome!

    I've run into very few other kilted people but every time I do it's like we are long-lost relatives or something. I met a guy in a kilt once when I was at the beach with a friend and instantly struck up a long conversation with the guy. When we left, my friend asked me how long I had known the guy and I told him I just met him.

    Very cool I hope they stop by here. Seeing other kilt wearers out and about just because must be something.
