O'Neille,

Could you please tell us dull-witted types what PCS stand for. I know you are referring to your daughter, but I can't figure out the acronym.

Your new saffron kilt is nice.

The PCS is my Petite Celtic Sprite. I called her Mountain Goat Girl in a mountin hike thread http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/s...ad.php?t=20451 and Gentleman Rex Tremende suggested that it was not an appropriate name for her. So PCS is what I came up with.

Thank you for explaining that. PCS is a much more appropriate name.

Very nice!!! I have been thinking about a Safforn kilt for a looong time. I gotta get me one of those soon.

Does anyone know the weight of the "heavyweight 100% wool" that SWK uses for that saffron kilt?

Can't find it on the website.

Thanks,

Ron

I'm sure you're a fine man that goes to only respectable establishments, but there are some die-hard Irishmen out there that don't take kindly to the Orange. Yes, I've gone to an Irish pub with Orange on and been hassled about it. Stupid, I know. Not saying anything will happen, but I just want you to know it's a possibility, even if remote.

...but that still doesn't stop me from wearing my Saffron SWK with great pride!!

It has the same feel as a medium weight Strathmore with a less hard finish due to the shadow weaving. A size 34" weighs 3 lbs. 7 oz. (per the usps mailing weight). So my math says somewhere about 11-13 oz. O'Neille
