    Would bringing two mighty Kollections together cause some sort of black hole?

    Maybe such a concentration of kilting attire would cause interdimensional rifts, disruption of the space time continuinuinuum.

    Anything could happen.

    We might see Hamish wearing a grey tie when green one would have looked better - or something even worse!!!!!

    I'll stick with our own, and say it'll be Hamish.
