Kilt Arrives

Five months after purchasing the kilt in Edinburgh, it ARRIVED.

Charlie the dog was mildly concerned or perhaps hopeful that it contained something for him.  They needed to weave the “Marshall” tarten before they could hand-sew this beautiful work of art!

These were very intriguing. I’m told these are guarders or “flashes”.  I’m thinking,  merkins.

Lots of accessories (sorta like going to the prom), everything was there: man-purse (I know it is sporran but we like to tease Chuck.), belt, buckle, chain.

Yes he is a Dark Horse, Scottish Badass!
