Good one Hawk, you are so right; thanks for that! 
Kyle was easy to spot because we've seen the great pictures of him here on the forum but, Andy is new here and may not have been aware of the Dandelions that we 'Dandies of the Rampant Lion' wear to identify ourselves at gatherings (found here). Ironically, I ordered one of those and it was in the mailbox when I got home from Ohio.
It was really great to meet Kyle. Although we were together just a short time, we talked, non stop on a myriad of subjects, (as did our wives) like we were long lost friends.

Simon Fraser fought as MacShimidh, a Highland chief… wrapped and belted in a plaid over the top of his linen shirt, like his ordinary kinsmen. He put a bonnet on his head, and stuck the Fraser emblem, a sprig of yew, in it. With the battle cry, A'Chaisteal Dhunaidh and the scream of the pipes, they charged to battle.
