    Then again, knowing this crowd it would probabaly have a screen door.
    That's what I thought too! We have a few kicking around the base in Victoria; XMTS could probably pick one up off the RCN cheap. It would be great for a kilt night. What do you say, Steve?

    Good advice with most kilts/tartans. But I'm afraid that if you treat my favorite Buchanan Modern as a neutral, you might come up with some pretty odd combinations

    @ hiker - if we ever get a submarine I hope it would be yellow.

    AND behind door number 2

    I removed the glass doors from Kilt row. This picture shows why the t-shirt collection is so diverse, how bad my addiction is and documents for the insurance company, should I have a fire, that yes I have over $10,000 tied up in kilts ( when they don't believe my claim - Yeah Right! ) - LOL - two missing and two on order - I quit keeping track at around $6K.



    Bottom row has all the pants that I used to wear.

    Pants is only a present tense verb here. I once panted, but it's all cool now.

    Sorry Zardoz, that accessory is clearly black and white, not grey.

    As I always say, if you stand next to the right people, in this case the lovely and talented author Gabrielle Faust, nobody gives a damn what you look like.

    Sorry no pics, technical problems when trying to download pics from camera into computer.

    With my X Marks tartan Freedom Kilt, I wear grey, light blue, medium blue and light yellow polo shirts. When go l shopping for shirts to wear with a new kilt, I wear the kilt to check the colors against the kilt. That way I don't get home after a shirt purchase and find out that the shade of color doesn't look right with the kilt.
