By all means you can ask. Their Clan tartan.

I hope they won't be regarded as posers

Only if they are wearing the kilt! LOL

There will probably be a few good natured comments dished out, but as this is a gathering of family and their friends I have no doubts whatsoever that the chaps on the recieving end will give as good as they get!

As to the good New Year, thank you all for the thoughts------somehow, I fancy it will be much better once this survey is over!

Sorry, I was wondering which specific clan tartans they were wearing, if you happen to know.

Some men are born in the wrong century. I think I was born on the wrong continent.
