T.

You are correct. That's Ralph Barclay - he's the Plains Region Commish responsible for MO, AR, KS and OK. I've never met the gentleman - but he must be very nice. He is, afterall, a Barclay.

I'm fairly certain that HeathBar - our illustrious VeeP of the Clan has met him and knows him well.

PS: ...Buffalo...Springfield? hmmmmm. That would make a great name for a band, eh?

Aye. It does look more dramatic in trews form. Still, I won't own a kilt in Dress Barclay, as I can't afford the wings and stinger that one needs to successfully wear the tartan.

Actually I've not had the pleasure of meeting him. As for the Barclay Dress tartan, the best for men's wear, be it kilts or trews, is the HoE "old and rare" muted colors. I have a length of it ready to be made into a kilt for my dad. If you come to the AGM, you'll get to see it.
