    Introduction

    Waes Hael to the "Great Rabble",

    At this time I would like to introduce myself to the forum. I am an American of Scots decent, whose family immigrated to North Carolina during the Ulster Scots migrations, when we were subjects of the crown. I began wearing the kilt and attending Highland Games in the early 1980's. I was also active with Clan Gunn in the US (and was a friend of "Hagar the Horrible) and the UK in the 1980's. I was also one of the founding members of the Memphis Scottish Society. However, by the late 1990's work had become very pressing and I was no longer active. My working career has been in education and law enforcement. I have an interest in all things "Norse"- as we know several clans are descended from the "Vikings"- including Clan Gunn. I have typically worn the Gunn tartan or the Black Watch tartan and look forward to spending more time with Kith and Kin.

    Slainte,

    Bjarg

    Based on your introduction, I'm too new and inexperienced here to even welcome you!

    Welcome anyway!
