I think we agree more than we disagree, so we'll leave it at that.

Let us take Campbell of Cawdor as an example as I think you said it was a district tartan too,sorry I can't remember where. I doubt that if you aked any Scot wearing that tartan would know that it was a district tartan as well, he would only know it as a clan tartan. Just wanted to make that clear.
All the best,
Jock.
