The Battle for the Kilt in Saint Louis, Missouri - USA

[Jock Scot]

A distinctly English sounding American "kilt expert".

Hahaha, yes, that's what I thought too Jock. I have no idea where they find these so-called "kilt experts." And I do not know of a Mark Sutherland in Saint Louis, however, I did know an Alex Sutherland who was indeed the "real thing" from Scotland. I don't think there is any immediate family relation between Mark and Alex. Sadly, Alex passed away quite unexpectedly several years ago.

Alex was a vital part of and played an active role in the St. Andrew's Society of Greater Saint Louis, the Scottish community of Saint Louis, the Saint Louis Scottish Games, as well as being quite the musician/leader of the band aptly named, "Alex Sutherland and His Cronies." Cajunscot (Todd) knew Alex well, too. Alex has been missed dearly.

Alex Sutherland

Mark's the 'real deal' too. Being born in Irvine (although you may have spotted he lived also with the southern neighbours for a while . He's also related to Alex Sutherland being his middle son. Does his bit for the St Louis Scottish community (regardless of the accent )
