January Tartan of the Month - What do you see?

[artificer]

You and me both although I'm not surprised. Most MSP are from the Central Belt, where the main population lives, and don't understand the Highlands or the countryside to any great degree. And of course there are very few votes north of the Highland Line.



Perhaps not every year but it is a one way process. I've recently persuaded the owners of a c1700-30 plaid to conserve it a replace it with a copy for everyday use. This will be the subject of a furute paper.



Back to my first comment. They don't understand and therefore don't value their history.

I totally understand what you mean about where the votes come from.

I'd at least think that, what with the kilt being the "National Dress" and all, the govt could be bullied a bit into even taking a few token steps to preservation and cataloging the material the kilt was made from.
