    I agree you should wear a tartan to the games. It's not that you won't see a few contwmporaries there, but they do stand out. And yes I've sold many UK's at festivals, but I always wear a tartan when I'm there as a festival visitor (anybody really wants me to, I'll explaine why).

    I'm still waiting for my black AK, and was hoping it would be here by this weekend, but when talking to my wife yesterday she said "You're going to the Highland Games. Your clan tent will be there. Wear the Douglas."

    SWMBO has spoken.

    Your wife makes a very good point; I know as the Midwest Commissioner for my clan, It is always a welcome sight to see a fellow clansman or clanswoman wearing the colours, so to speak.

    Besides, you might be able to march with the clan in the Parade of Tartans!

    I stand with Matt and the others: "Bring forrit the tartan!"

    Cheers,

    Todd

    Another vote for tartan, from another who thinks that the traditional kilt is more appropriate for highland games and Scottish festivals.
