I don't have any Scottish blood that I'm aware of, but I do have an Irish background. My dad's family came from the area around Larne, Co. Antrim in N. Ireland. I could wear the Co. Antrim tartan, but I don't particularly like the colours in it.

I'm not one to stick to "traditions" as far as tartan selection goes, so my first tartan kilt was a Black Watch. My second was a budget "Pride of Scotland" just because the price was right and I liked the colours. My third is a Hunting McLeod, again because I like the look of the tartan. I also have a kilt in the Gordon tartan on order. Some day I'd like to get kilts in some of the Canadian provincial tartans, as well as the City of Calgary tartan. Just have to win the lottery first. LOL

As Jimmy Carbomb always tells us...wear what you like, but try to find out a little bit about the tartan you choose. Now go out and enjoy!!
