    Wonderful to hear of a man of such great integrity! And isn't it always that they go about their good deeds in a quiet refined way? Thanks for sharing, Kyle.
    Regards, Sav.

    Great story!

    This being a kilt forum I will observe that in those photos Matt invariably has a smart kit, and it did not escape my attention that he wears the multi-piece cap badge, and kilt, of the pipers of The Queens Own Highlanders.

    Indeed, a man of honour, integrity, honesty and truth. Great story. Thanks for posting it, Caol Anndra.

    Good eye, Richard. Yes, Matty was gifted the badge by the late P/M Alasdair Gillies and wears the Cameron of Erracht tartan in his memory. They were fairly good mates (and they kind of look a like).
