Did you know ...
An average worsted wool kilt weighs around six pounds.
The most popular tartans are the Stewart tartans, Black Watch, Dress Gordon and the Flower of Scotland.
The oldest tartan is the Falkirk tartan, which dates to around AD245 and was discovered in a jar of coins near Falkirk.
The first named clan tartan was Murray, in 1618.
The first tartan on the Moon was the Macbean, worn by Alan Bean on Apollo 12 in November, 1969
Wallace Catanach, Kiltmaker
A day without killting is like a day without sunshine.

Scotland needs a minimum of 25,000 immigrants a year to keep up with the low birth rate, deaths and emigration. (Maybe they'll offer some nice incentives...)

Sorry Mods dont know this type of humor is allowed, make the ones who seek to terorise us look silly etc. feel free to hit the big red button

We should all take that approach to fighting terrorism.
So next time you see a man on fire where he doesn't belong, give him a belt in the gob and a boot in the gut.
