Ronno,
On your way west you could visit evelyn.
She altered my kilt and made me a coat.
Everthing is made to measure and covers a number of size alterations as I have the FB VFB sizing.
Click on her links for examples of coats etc. Haven't got a picture of my coat yet but it certainly is unusual!!!!

You could consider buying an x hire

Good prices! If her quality is as good, there will be folk beating a path to her door.
I'd put a recommend in for Stewart at Randall's - [email protected]
£280 for 16oz, heavyweight cloth, 8yd.
Top bloke too.

Evelyn does a grand job with great quality, she made me a 1800c frock coat in weathered Monro tartan. She kits out alot of pipe bands and enjoys the challange of creating something different - see "circle of gentlemen".
Looking at TT they do not seem to do a kilt pack!!!!!

I picked up a ex hire Jacobite shirt in excellent condition for £7. Saw the same shirt brand new for £39.99 in another shop.
Ronno-- There's a place in Abernethy-- Fife side of the Tay, east of Perth, called Caledonian something or other--can't remember-- that does very reasonably priced made to measure dress jackets etc.
There is another place in Murthly--next to the Tay--where the ex Black Watch kiltmaker operates. He works with Janet Eagleton, who is a sporran maker to the stars--Samuel L. Jackson, S. Connery, etc. He is absolutely brilliant and unbelievably quick, obviously makes kilts with military type layout. Janet and her son make huge range of sporrans--they made one for me using an otter I ran over(!?)--not allowed now-- and its terrific. They also have a shop in Perth. Can't recommend them highly enough. PM me if you want phone nos--or come up for a donder and I'll take you there.

If you want to dress like a girl why not buy a simple and cheap dress / skirt
or if you really want to express your scottish roots get a high quality string vest and drink more
Don't see the point in them really, your just conforming to a stereotypical sweaty sock, be yourself! The recent gathering of the clans highlights it to me, with all the Americans being the current clan chiefs it's all become a bit cheesy! Oh dear I'm off to hide now as I fear I'm about to be lynched but everyones entitled to their opinion. Save your money and spend it on bikes.

I take it you dinnae mean the Ullapool Gathering of the Clans? There wurnae any Yanks there.
Plenty w@nks and that was wi'oot you turnin' up tae... Drink more? How do you know how much I drink?
Edit: Although you live in Forres, I take it that yer no' Scottish (the Sweaty Sock line made my suspicious that you're a White Settler...)?
No not Ullapool, the Edinburgh Gathering of all the Scottish family Clans, nothing to do with GSers (although I'm sure there may well have been some there, under cover of course
left the twat suits at home in favour of kilts).
