    Hi Tom,
    I ordered my Lloyd from the Welsh tartan centre about two weeks ago. I can't wait for it to be delivered (my mothers family are Lloyd-Davies). As a newbie to tartans I ordered mine via a local company here in the midlands of England. There was some confusion over the exact Lloyd tartan as I've since found out there are at least three. The other being scottish I think.
    But I've settled in the grey/green Lloyd partly because it is muted and I think it will suit for both formal and casual.

    I'll post some pics when it arrives.

    Mike

    Well, good! We will have to compare when they arrive.

    I ordered from a store in the USA, even though I'm living in Germany right now. The price works out the same, and the Cilt (Kilt) is supposed to be made in the UK, but it might make it a little easier to get to me considering the VAT and exchange rate. We shall see. They quoted 8 to 12 weeks delivery.

    Also, welcome to the Forum, I hope you will enjoy it here.

    There is no reason why a Welshman should not wear loads of Scottish tartans Phil!

    But yes, he did have Welsh connections.

    And besides, any Welshman interested in wearing the cilt is probably eligible for Clan Wallace Society "Scots of any clan and all others who wish they were Scots"
