    Not unlike my kilted beginnings. I've only gathered up things incrementally, and still have a little ways to go to be "properly" attired. NO, no tartan tie with the kilt
    Do you know I have never understood why those who are dressing on a financial shoestring fail to do their research. If there are only a few Pounds/Dollars to spare on clothing then why spend it on the wrong stuff? With a bit of research that same amount of money could be much more wisely spent on more suitable attire.

    For example, why spend that hard earned loot on a tartan waistcoat when a tartan tie is all that is needed? Fanciful ideas in purchasing inappropriate attire, ----------I see it often on this website sadly-------is a very costly move.

    Someone here not so long ago made a very wise comment that many might want to think about and they were:-
    "When money is short one cannot afford to get it wrong". Something for some to ponder on before pursuing those fanciful ideas?
