    'Twas the Eagles, I believe, who summed it up for me:

    I was running down the road trying to loosen my load,
    There are seven tartans I can see.
    Four of them are Strome, an'
    Two are from my home, an'
    one of them's a custom weave.

    Holyrood Gold has that classic "tartan" look to it...that's a helluva kilt!

    I also would go with the Ramsay/Swan tartan, in 16oz wool. Trust me, it will be worth it.
