Have no idea of the percentages - Have Macbeth and Drummond lines, Chandlers ' and Nicholsons' from England-Jolly olde-one each, some unspecified Irish DNA, and some Fortney lineage from Wales.
All that qualifies me to do is to start a fight in an empty room!. I welcome anybody who wears or wants to wear the most masculine garment in the world as a kindred spirit. X-marks by choice not by blood I read somewhere recently.
This kiltie won't dismiss your posts or opinions just because you had the terribly bad form to be born outside a recognized clan. Given your tender age at the time of your birth, I think we can all agree to let this one slide. 
In all seriousness, living in the U.K. probably gives you insights into the traditional culture of kilt wearing that some of us stateside don't have. I always read your posts with great interest.
Besides, according to my limited understanding, the British definitely played a role in the evolution of the kilt from the blanket that could not be aired out in a day's time to the unique modern garments I enjoy wearing daily.
While heritage is of interest to me, kilts are too. If a Burmese lady wants to post in D.I.Y. about how she made her kilt I am going to read it and see what I can learn.
