    Do these kilts come with a tag like this?

    I wish my girlfriend was that supportive, but then again I'm only in college, I haven't found that lady yet that will support my habits of kilts, celtic rock, and all that is Irish.

    James MacMillan and I looked at those kilts during the Games as well. It certainly seems like a good kilt for the money, but be aware that they are pleated "to the nothing", ie: they are neither pleated to the set nor the stripe. The pleats in the back are just folded and stitched at the fell, no particular pattern.

    They are also on Myspace at http://www.myspace.com/mackinnonsqualitykilts
    Well that's neat. I'm going to tell my clan society leader about it. I'm MacKinnon and I'm suprised he's not mentioned them since he's in California.

She sells 8 yard, machine stitched kilts in Viscose/Acetate for $135, and they are close enough that I could go pick up an order and save on shipping, or have an order shipped pretty cheap.

    So, it looks like I'll be getting two more kilts as soon as I can save up the money... After all, my wife say I have to, and she's the boss, right?
    Man, could she talk to my wife? Or maybe we can clone her.

    I hope that you get on your knees tonight and thank God for your wife. We are all jealous!

    Some of them do. My Heritage of Scotland did.

    Crusty, you're a lucky man!

    Here's a couple pictures from last year at Monterey:

    Well, when "She who must be obeyed" speaks you have no choice but to obey.

    I think my wife might go along with a combo, loose some serious weight, then buy more kilts. So I'm starting to exercise and am going to work real hard to lose a bunch over the summer.

    You are a lucky man.

    Cheers,
