Thanx!!!!!!!!!!

tim – Happy belated birthday. Yes, I’m a Libra as well, but my birthday isn’t for a few more weeks. Sierra is now posting on her livejournal since Blogger deleted her other blog.

dani – really? I’m so flattered that you have saved the photo on your computer and even used it as wallpaper.

Duncan – We did get to see some of the Highland games including the weight throw and the sheaf toss as well as the opening ceremony with all the wonderful pipe bands. This is the biggest Celtic event that I know of in the area that includes the games. Good fun!

Dave – Thank you! I imagined Sean’s voice on your behalf as I read that.

007 – Lots of fun rain or shine, though I’m glad we weren’t caught in any major downpours like they had on Sunday.

^Mike – It’s nice that they hold the Celtic Classic in a historic district which adds even more charm to the event. I enjoy checking out the old structures and seeing the demonstrations of oldtime crafts such as the one at the blacksmith’s shop as much as visiting the fair’s vendors.

Prefectdt – Despite there being many vendors including leatherworkers, there wasn’t a single one that I could find that offered a tawse for sale. We need to work on that.

Steve (UK) – I’m not sure which is was, but I noticed even our waitress looking so I made a point of displaying my Celtic fest pin in an attempt to silently explain my outfit.

Jai – There are many, many websites that offer all sorts of different tartan items for sale including skirts and kilts. Some even sell “American kilts”, but they generally aren’t plaid and not as much fun to me.

Devlin – I haven’t found that my family has a clan tartan, but based on county it is Roscommon. I haven’t found it available in a skirt though.

I’m happy to link to your blog. I’m only sorry that I hadn’t sooner. And thank you for posting a link back to mine along with your kind words!

Dr. Ken – For the sake of color coordination I wore red panties that had just a touch of black lace.

Michael – Thank you! I’m glad plaid suits me as I love it. My closet is a virtual plaid explosion.

Justme – It was a lot of fun. I look forward to going again next year if possible.

2Good – *blushes* I’m not sure that I know too much about fashion in general, but I do know my plaids. I’d be more than happy to help get you decked out in some plaid skirts (makes mental note …)

Dave – it’s true!

Redchief – You are very sweet. I hope if you ever really did see me that you’d be most likely to come up and say hello.

tim – I hope you have been able to chat with Chelsea and get things sorted out.

Winchester – From what I understand, Black Watch is a “free tartan” and permissable for wear by anyone, but I’d certainly adhere to a quick inspection if the rules called for it. I promise to behave (mostly) while wearing their tartan … especially if I’m likely to go to Applebee’s afterwards.

Chelsea – Thank you for reaching out to tim. I’m glad my blog could be of help.

“Highland store” online shop do a good range of women’s mini-kilts as well as long ones – thhough they do call them “kilts (skirts)”. Perhpas the purists will argue that only males wear kilts – but who cares what you call hem: it’s how you look in them that matters – and you look stunning!
