    My wife has Cornish heritage and loves to wear the Cornish tartan, or one of them.

    Good day to wear a kilt!

    Many thanks for the reminder Graham.

    I had quite forgotten to carry the entry forward to my 2008 diary. Without question, I will be proudly wearing my Cornish National kilt when I am out and about later today.

    Take care,
    Ham.

    I was going to start a thread on this but don't have to now!

    I am wearing my Cornish National in celebration and my avatar shows me in it too!

    Belated St. Piran's Day to you! Did anyone attend a public celebration of the day anywhere in the world?

    And who is St. Piran?
