    I would try to get a kilt in your Clan. There are usually 2 or more different tartans; Clan Tartan, hunting, ancient, and sometimes others. The Tartans Authorority is the best resource for finding your Clan's tartans. It can be found here:Scottish Tartans Authority

    SteveB - correct on the surname, thanks.

    A day without killting is like a day without sunshine.

    Holy smokes, searching there found that there's a tartan for my surname, Downes. (My adoptive father is a Stewart, so always worn his tartan, never knew there was one for my own surname)
