    Well, when you steam it, you don't press it. You need to go to the tutorial section and read through The Wizard of BC's tutorial on how to press a kilt; he explains it better than us.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    This is all well and good, but how do you steam a haggis?

    (there's a punchline out there somewhere)

    Um... With steam?

    Anyway, I take my kilts out of the closet once a week, so they get some use,and steam them while inspecting them etc. It would be nice to have one of those monster sized steamers that could steam cook a haggus from four feet away, but the small hand held Steam Buddy does OK... for steaming the kilt that is.

    Insult his wife, put a dent in his car. Light a paper bag full of dog poop on fire, on his porch. Ring his doorbell and run away.
