Commemorating Culloden
April 16, 1746 my Macdonald, Cameron, Gordon, and Frazier ancestors stood with the Jacobites at Culloden.
I've been wondering which tartan to wear Wednesday in rememberance...way to many to choose from.
Since they lost, maybe I should just wear pants....?

Pants??? Noooooooooooooooooooooooo
Say it ain't so Ron.
I might, just might wear a Stewart tartan, perhaps the Black Stewart, it seems fitting, may just go up to Burnett's and Struth and see about the Weathered MacDonald on Wednesday too, it sounds like a good day to do it.

Um... Ron, I think you're developing tartan maddness.
I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

I'll be wearing my Macdonald modern tartan, Ron. I say between the amount of Gordons and Frasers around you might be well going for the Cameron.
Whatever you wear, be well and be proud.

Well I might just have to wear my new Gordon modern out and about.

Good evening all! I will be wearing my black stewart. Recently found out that I am a Sheehy from Ireland and girlfriend found out she is a Campbell and an Irish Brophy. Much confusion, but will still go with the Black Stewart.

On other forums, I've heard this kinda talk referred to as "trolling."

Don't forget that many Scots were not suporters of the Jacobites,including some Highland clans.Might it be better to let sleeping dogs lie?

Any excuse for kilting. You don't really need one, but it makes it more fun.
Hmm...Maybe my Prince Charles Edward Stewart Kilt
