Glad to hear you lived, my dad had something similar a few years back. Tore up his hand into hamburger meat, shattered (I mean shattered, it's in pieces but he can still walk) and huge scrapes and cuts.

I think you can wear any tartan you wish, but it can mean alot more if you have a connection with it. I'm a Gillmore (Morrison if you will) and I wear a Wallace tartan.

random moment: would it be weird if a Morrison wore a MacLeod? I mean, we're very very very very very distant kin, but we have that rivalry thing...
