    I'm wondering if my Hamish rating will increase when I pop into the Celtic Craft Centre in Edinburgh on Friday...!

    Oh probably! I just got my Freedom Kilt today and I'm trying to resist the urge to up my bloody rating.

    D.i.m

    Gentlemen,and ladies,
    I am unsure of my Hamish rating at this time My total Kollection is the result of my own efforts since March to this time (thanks to Alan H ans Steve the wizard). Total kilts in possesion 1.8 1 X-kilt and 1 almost finished knife pleat when my wife's sewing machine met an umtimely demise (folly bordering on suicide):buttkick: A new one is in the wings however which will cause me to lunch on PBJ for the next 43 years. There is however light at the end of my tunnel (note to self, check for trains) we will be recieving a nice sum of found money soon, I mentioned that we WILL be talking to Kathy Lare at the upcomming games my wife's reply" Can I help pick the tartan, the Isle of Skye is realy nice...... what was that tartan from Hamish's new kilt" With all the changes ans refinements of the Hamish I am lost on calculations with some guidance I will remove my shoes in case I need to count past 10 and pruchase an abacus to augment my trusty $3 calculator and essay the math.

    Probably? Almost certainly! Wish I could afford the next one already.

    As long as it is worn . . . it should count.

    slightly off topic, if we were to take a snapshot of a certain timeframe, could we also work out the Kilt Acceleration?

    I love this, I don't get to do fun math anymore . . .

    There is no way I can make kilts at that rate! I have trouble making 3 kilts per year unless... I give up my day job... that won't happen in the near future...
