I have figured that there are so many really nice tartans out there. That it would be a shame not to have a kilt in this ,or that tartan just because you are trying to "Go by the rules"

If you are not planning to go to a clan gathereing then I don't think it would matter too much.

I have a Hunting Maclean just because I liked it. I'm not planning on a clan gathering. Whats more I still have a lot of choices

Co Fermanagh (My father is from there)
Irish Diaspora (Irish blood Tartan)
Hunting Macleod (My Surname is a Sept)
Irish National

And these are just 4 of the Tartans that are on my list that I have a connection with There's load I just like too.

So get that Muir and have fun

My father's family are also Irish. County Tyrone, hence my use of Jer "Mc" as a screen name. I am also considering other tartans as well. Like I said above I have seen it said many times that it doesn't really matter. I guess I am a member of Clan MacNeil of Canada at least the sent me the latest newsletter on Friday. The quote about they not caring, came directly from , the clan chief.
