New here and fellow scotsman from SoCalifornia

Greetings.

I just joined this site and well I don't know what to do but just say hello.

The reason I joined was that 6-8 months ago, I took a DNA test and found out I was 50% swedish.
I was surprised to be partly scottish, irish, finnish, and danish, and BRITISH. LIVING IN USA all my life!

Now funny thing is was at a celtic festival in June for the past 2 years. I bought a sports kilt but not a true kilt.
I have the socks, the flashes, and also some nice tams and balmorals.

I read the rules of this forum.
It just feels unreal and I wear a kilt.

Anyway, thank you.

Welcome from a fellow Scotsman. I was born in Glasgow, but have lived in England for the last 50 years. My DNA shows links to other parts of the world, so it can,all feel strange and complicated.

I've learned a lot from this forum, and hope you will also. In the meantime, enjoy kilt-wearing.

I originally thought this was more than kilt wearers forum.

Perhaps this was a hook up site. Perhaps meet some nice women. Men? XD

Nah, I kid but I did find a forum here that has events happening.
Perhaps you guys have the Celtic Festival in Placentia here in California?

There is that so maybe next year in 2026 in June.

Absolutely not!

Nonetheless, welcome to the "Great Rabble" from Canada!

Well another thing is bring up that I wear a kilt that was just a wrap around that attaches with velcro.

Now the funny thing is I don't think i've associated with any clan so I looked it up that it may be similar to "Walls".
I never knew of any other Walls out there but i'm just making sure.

Just wear some nice Royal stewart, or a Wallace (red)
