I ordered some gold braids from Watts in London via their webpage. When i clicked the braid i wanted, they had 2 to choose from, i didnt notice that it was the other one that popped up, so i ordered 10 meters of a narrow scalloped braid, it should have ben the wider one. When i clicked the other one, vise versa happened. I complainted about it when i received the 2 braids i ordered, i should have had a wide scalloped one, but got a narrow, and vise versa. All they said, back to me, that they were sorry and thankyou for notice it to us. Dont you think they should have sended me some new ones, of the ones i thoaght i had ordered? I dont have time to send back to them and waite for a new posting.. Bjarne ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume

He says it's the tartan of Clan McAbees. Then there's the classic Anna Russel bit from her lecture How to Enjoy your Bagpipe. Then you cover it in its little shirt which should be made of the family tartan. I belong to the McPimple clan. It's the only Scottish clan to have a polka-dotted tartan. andy ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
