Caithness
Some of it is from DeBe's BBC-Radio Scotland interview. Finally fighured out that it aired at about 7:00 AM their time,,just as folks were getting up and about and tuning in for the traffic reports. And the media coverage hit stride.
Just saw this on the www.caithness.org site. Bill Fernie, the webmaster and the Highland Council member for Wick West has been pushing buttons as well. For the curious,,Caithness is the original home ground of the Gunns.
Just for the record,,,several of those laddies are wearing Gunn colors,,including two of the three in the big picture.

240 Attended Wick High School Prom Tonight - Here Are A Few
As always a big turnout from the 4th 5th and 6th year pupils for the wick High School Prom. All the men were in Highland dress and the ladies in a stunning array of evening dresses. All the young ladies have booked up hairdressers and make-up people months in advance. Earlier this evening dinners at various hotels across Wick for a meal before they all head to the school for the dance. The night was just beginning to get going when we too these photos. If you were at the dance and want to add your photos to the gallery just email them to bill@caithness.org Thrumster Lads Off to Wick High Prom Tonight
Three Thrumster lads were ready for the Wick High School prom tonight. Liam Miller Liam Sutherland and Shaun Oman all from Thrumster were kitted out in the full Highland dress and raring to go.
Meantime controversy over Nathan Warmack's kilt at the prom in Jackson High continues to hit the headlines now around the world
Here on Caithness.org we highlighted the lad who was told he could not wear the kilt to school dance and had to change. The web site petition has caught the imagination of the newspapers and Scots around the world are heading over to sign the petition. An appeal for the other items to make up the full outfit are coming in and headlines seem to be growing for the campaign.
Here are a few

Talk about rubbing it in! ;)
I think McClard needs to see those pics. He'd be jealous they have so many fine looking lads.

McClard is probably starting to feel like a duck in a shooting gallery.

Great photos from the Wick High School Prom, All of the lads and lassies are well dressed, the lads look great in their kilts.
Mr. McClard and Mr. Anderson are definitely out of step with their heritage.

The Principle and Administration are probably waiting for this to simple blow over.
However, the kilt isn't the only thing our ancesters handed down to us,They also gave us a very long memory.
