New Kilt from Slanj

My nice, new kilt should be ready in 6-8 weeks. And then I only get to try it on once before the wedding!
Arlen, it's amazing that the person you dealt with in Slanj was'nt accustomed to someone knowlegeable about kilts. Slanj are always advertising in the newspapers and getting free publicity with every foreign footballer and personality who comes to Glasgow, giving them a free kilt in order to court publicity.
They are probably more used to the individual wanting to hire or buy a kilt for his wedding probably a first time wearer.
Hope your outfit is to your liking for your wedding, look forward to the photos.
