My future family doesn't have a clan tartan so I think the city of sheffield pattern is the way to go.
I spoke with strathmore woollen mill and they seemed to like the idea too, so that's a good stamp of support!

I've thought about the hiring of the kilt from the band but to be honest I like the idea of having one for myself ;-)

I think Piperdbh may be right, perhaps I'll get addicted!!

Thanks for all your kind comments too!
