I appreciate your pictorial homage to men in kilts! Sadly seeing a kilted Scotsman is as common as seeing a cork hat wearer in Melbourne! To rightfully wear a particular tartan you must be connected to it's family tree. Ignoring this rule is classed as sacrilege by Scot's! On a final note - In some parts the term is "Laddie" while in others it's "Loon". Take care~x.
Its more of a fun post than anything else, my grandparents used to take me to see the 'Scotchies' (Scottish marching bands) at the Easter Fair, as a boy, and I suppose it has childhood memories for me. So on my maternal grandfather's side we have Scottish, and on my paternal grandfather's side Danish. Thanks for your comment. I will change the Laddy to Laddie. Robbie.
