    That's a wonderful looking kilt.

    Might I suggest that if you're not going to wear the sweater (or a vest) that you wear a kilt belt though. It just seems to complete the outfit even if it serves no functional purpose.

    That being said, it looks great as a kilt and even better on you. The photo with the sweater just looks like such a comfortable outfit.

    Now Yaish, don't be bitter... Look at the good points; we don't have to deal with sub-freezing temperatures for half the year, and in the winter, we can surf Huntington Beach in the morning, hit the desert in the 4X4 for some afternoon off-road fun on the way to Big Bear, and fall asleep in a snow-bound cabin after some night-skiing - all in one day!

    Looks great with the sweater.

    Thought Norwegians HAD to wear Freelander sporrans??

    True! I'd gladly trade a large house with an apartment in California when we don't see the sun from November 20 to January 17. We need a large house when it is dark most of the day and the the proximity to the ocean makes those -20 seem awfully raw; and we can't get to the nearest wine shop 70 km away as the mountain pass is closed due to bad weather... :rolleyes: Summer is nice, though: doesn't get dark at all for two months.

    Aerial shot taken last week, the other one on my way to work this morning (-18 c).

    What a wonderful way to start the day: finding all your kind feed-back and responses!

    Moosehead: Yes, it is a true Arran. Clan Murphy...

    Riverkilt: Quite right, Norwegians have to have a Freelander. I have one being made for me at this very moment. Is the term jonesing applicable now? (First time I use the term...)

    Thanks again for nice words

    Aye, jonesing you are. But know all will soon be right with the Karma of the World when you Freelander arrives

    That is a very nice looking kilt. I think your sporran height is pretty good.

    As far as sweaters go, doesn't Rocky have some sweaters on his web site for a decent price? And What Price Glory is selling some sweeeeet turtle necks on his site for a good price.
