Yes I have been on several cruises and know that there are alot of variety in formal styles. The main reason I want to look spiffy is the profession pics being done around the ship that night. SWMBO (She Who Must BE Obeyed), takes this oppertunity seriously for our yearly family pics. Thanks for the offer of help to buy me a formal sporran, but I am just a Cheap SOB, not broke, but I apoligize on the assumption that a stranger would just part with a valuable piece. Stupid question number 53, if I rent do I go with a fly plaid too, or will that be over the top?
