    Hmmmmm.
    For purely organizational reasons all of the "feathered chappies" from up on the stage were asked to flock together so that they could be easily located, if needed.

    As I recall the "big tent" was Clan Sinclair, whose chief, the Earl of Caithness, was honoured chief of the games. The next tent was Clan Boyle then Clan MacMillan. Boyle had more "vacant space" than either of it's neighbors, so Way of Plean and Squire of Rubislaw (both members of clan MacMillan by bonds of manrent) along with Harden of Cowdenknowes, pitched up there, while my wife and I took shelter from the sun with "oor ain folks" in the MacMillan tent next door (if clan tents can be considered to have doors ).
