Fort Erie Celtic Festival 9/9

[Wompet]

Of course, it wouldn't be a Celtic Festival if you don't see at least one thing you have to have:


Nae, ya numpties - git yer minds outta da gutter! The kilt!!
(And his face is erased because I asked to take a picture of his kilt, not a picture of him.)

The Western New York tartan (what he called it), listed by the Scottish Tartans Authority as "Buffalo," ITI 4086.


I may have to talk to Matt Newsome about getting a kilt in this.
(Any current/former western New Yorkers interested in a bulk order, please PM me later.)

And last, but not least, the X Marks-ers:


Left to right: John (not yet a member), SWK Irish National; Sam/Mexipiper, New York City tartan; me, self-made cotton duck; and Pete/MacHummel, 8-yd MOD canvas CCK. Picture taken by Crystal the happy lurker.
Also there were Norm/McPelle and his wife (unfortunately we took the pictures before they showed up), Pete's wife Sandy and baby Soraya (in her Holyrood kilt)(no picture because everyone was concentrating on staying out of the rain). Ewan/Phatpiper came in at the end of the day with the rest of the Glengarry Bhoys.

I was told that that tartan was made for the British Shop in Buffalo, NY, I didn't realize it was registered and they didn't seem to either as I asked them. But cool if it is it would be easier for me to get one made. I don't recall thier prices for the kilts, but they may have some material available that you can just buy that and ship it off to Matt.
