COOL! Check out Australia's kilted regiment attire

WOW - I've never seen that tartan before. How on earth did I miss that one - its beautiful!

I quite agree.

I have to admit, though, that when I first saw this tartan rendered on a computer monitor I thought it was very daggy: a bit like a dowdy checked skirt one of my primary school teachers might have worn. Seeing the tartan "in the flesh", however, is a totally different experience altogether. It is magnificent!

My wife is on to me to make kilts for myself and our son (as well as something for herself and our daughter, of course) but, ironically, given that I'm an Aussie, the tartan is pretty hard to get.

(I just thought of something - am I one of the lucky few who gets pestered by his wife to get [I]more[I] kilts?)

Cheers,
