    Cool Hello from New York City!

    Hi all,

    Glad to meet you! I thought I’d say hello from New York City. I’ve been in the process of prepping for Tartan Week in NYC and another clan trip to Scotland so I’m deep in kilts! As you all know, preparing for any big event can be a bit of a process, and they sadly just closed the Kinloch Anderson outpost at Brooks Brothers here in NYC so I’m figuring out a plan B.

    Anyways, I’ll post my questions elsewhere but wanted to say hello first! I’m 33, grew up in Australia but have been here in NYC for the last 11 years. My ancestry is Scottish and traces back through Clan Sinclair to the Stuarts and Tudors etc. I love British history and all things highlands! Glad to be here.

    Cheers!

    Nae; much as I'd love to, there are other things in my life that take priority.
