An introduction from Steve, the new owner of XMTS

**Lahav** · 14th October 09, 08:25 PM

As I am brand new here, I have no idea as to the persons involved. I am quite pleased to see how well this whole thing was handled. It seems as if I have found quite the proper place.

This group has been a trove of information and friendship. I am sure that that will continue on. Congratulations on a wonderful gift and thank you for continuing the tradition.

Slainte,

Bill

Congratulations: My goal is to visit Victoria, and your shop someday, looks like a beautiful place.

Steve, you have my congratulations for taking on this challenge and responsibility.

...you also have my sympathy for becoming the head curator of this rowdy group of unbifurcated bon vivants who are probably, with apologies to Hunter S. Thompson, the biggest bunch of full blown bull-goose loonies that I have ever had the pleasure to have known.

In those immortal words of Young Mr. Grace (Are You Being Served?):

"Carry on everybody...you're all doing very well!"

Best

AA

Old news by now but Oh! what an interesting turn in the ongoing drama called XmarkstheScot. As another of the early members to join this forum, it's been amazing to watch its sturdy growth over the years. And although my participation in this forum has faded, my appreciation for the kilt remains stalwart. It's been fun to peek in and see a few of the old handles roll by.

I congratulate Steve and wish Hank, the staff, and the membership alike all the best in the days ahead.
