Half Century Reached

[Jock Scot]

A belated Happy Birthday D I! Speaking as one who is too many years ahead of you; "make the most of it" and judging by your choice of dancing partner it seems you already do!

[QUOTE=Darkislander;885050]Thanks for your best wishes, comments and questions.
My tartan is Darkisland, hence my name Darkislander. I'm sure the piper told me his tartan was his name, therefore Robertson. I'll check next time I see him because I remember him saying there were 8 designs of Robertson.

Marton Mills Black Isle is often called Dark Isle or Dark Island by some vendors, but so is Dark Shadow or Black Shadow tartan, so it may or may not be the same.

The piper's tartan is definitely MacDonald of Glencoe, unless that pattern is shared by the Robertsons as well. Glencoe is one I will never forget.

Congratulations on reaching the big "Five O"! A grand celebration, it looks to have been. And, we share the same birth date of 14 April.
