[Jock Scot]

I have a quick question. I was told (particualarly by my wife) that stripes and plaid never go together. Now I know it is a TARTAN that we wear, but it is called plaid to many. Is that a problem at all?

I saw the picture earlier in the thread of someone wearing one and I thought it looked great. I wonder if I could fine one for my university.

Striped ties and tartans are regularly worn in Scotland, mainly by the older generation I grant you. Look at the Prince Charles picture thread -----find a picture of, er well, Jock Scot,------have a look at Mael Culuim's ongoing thread in Scotland, I know there is at least one Guards tie and most certainly a Black Watch tie on show. plenty of stripes and tartan to look at.
