My mother had kid pictures of me in lederhosen that came out everytime I brought a date home. Oy...

Scarborough lacked any German garb....if TRF has some shops with it then the clothing demons will have subdued me once again.

Both of me kilts are wool. The Fraser of Lovat tartan is my formal one and "special occasions" only (like putting me in the ground).  The one i wear to faire is Black Watch Modern, as is my fly plaid.  Black & green being me personal colors, Black Watch suits me fine.  My bracers are black & green leather, also.  Stunning in a dark twisted kind of way...  like me!

Allen was talking to me a couple of years ago about going as a Landesknecht... too much floofage for me  ;) He pulls it off well, though. I'd make a good dopplesoldier with my frame, but I like comfy clothes.

As for what we do with our faire stuff, usually it gets hung up in the closet except for tunics, which we wear around the house as "lounging clothes"  ;D

Crown Special Reserve. Yum...

I made the dry run down there this weekend. 3.5hrs. But that don't count dragging a 3500lb trailer.  :-\

Didn't Crown come out with a "Special Casket" blend for something like $100 a bottle?? Seems I've seen something like that but lack the funds to sample.

Yeah, that's almost on a par with Johnnie Walker Blue... WAY too expensive for my wallet.
