Jonesing to order....

**runewolf** · 29th December 08, 12:37 PM

My Xmas present for this year was to be my very first kilt even though it would not be delivered in time for Yule... Well the close we got to years end, the busier work became and thing went south pretty quickly. My mother passed away on Thursday, the 18th and all thoughts of taking the time to get measured and order were put on hold. So Christmas eve, I finally felt like doing anything and had my wife take the measurements and emailed Rocky (not expecting him to answer until after Christmas, but he did Christmas day!).

Rocky reminded me that they were taking a well deserved vacation and I could call him after January 4th to order..... Now the days are creeping by so slow you wouldn't believe! If it is this bad just waiting to order, how much worse is it going to get?!?!

Sincerest condolences on your loss, that has to take the major fun out of the season, cheer up however, Rocky will come through!

Our payers are with you.

Thanks, it is getting better, comes and goes kinda bad though.

I have no worries about Rocky, but he was smart enough not to tell me where he was going for vacation lol... Probably figures the jones would hit me bad and I'd go find him hehe.

It must be hard - jonesing before you've even ordered it!

Sounds like a Jones Jonesing.

Jonesing to jones

I glad I'm not a glutton for punshment.

I feel for your loss, but congrats on the Kilt pre-order order

LOL, well if nothing else I can count on you guys to cheer me up.

Ordered a pin that I hope to use as a kilt pin today (Yay for Amazon.com gift certificates!) and am looking at a few cheap sporrans to get me by until I order one from Turpin.

Runewolf... I'm very sorry for your loss. It's never easy when someone passes around the holidays.

On a slightly more positive note, we're actually vacationing pretty close to you (relatively speaking)... Colonial Williamsburg.

The weird thing is that we have met 3 customers while down here (who approached me to talk about the kilt I was wearing) and have started SEVERAL discussions about kilts down here. I feel like a "kilt ambassador" to VA! Hahahaha

LOL, well I couldn't think of a better ambassador... Except maybe Hamish, that smile of his is infectious! I can barely remember Williamsburg, I was too young/small to ride the Loch Ness Monster when I was there. We're thinking about going that way next year for our anniversary.
