    Dummy Sgian Dubh? Who knew it had a use? I was just buying time till my son was old enough for a real one. Turns out there's a need for them sometime.

    We'll be there for Tattoo and parade ... go every year under the Clan Chattan banner. Now if only we could get the MacPhersons to join us - they are always late... (inside joke of sorts)

    Hey, I resemble that remark. ;)

    I just found out today that I'll be able to make it into The City in time for the parade, but I'll be sure to let out a proud "CRAIG DUBH!" as you pass by...

    @ MacBean The Buchanans will be in the same section with you. We'll see you there.
    The Armstrongs will be one section behind us.
    Here's the line of march.

    I looked at buying one when I went on my cruise. While I have heard that most people do not have a problem getting them on board, the cruise contract specifically said no knives. While mine are both inexpensive, I have no intention of loosing one to confiscation. I ended up with a bottle opener instead of a plastic knife as I thought it looked better.
