    Pride of Scotland Ancient.

    Hello Rabble, I just found this piece of 16oz tartan for sale on ebay that made me drool. It is too bad that it is not big enough for me or I would of already bought it...

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...B:FSEL:GB:1123

    This is the same seller that I bought my MacKinnon modern red from and he has a great selection of tartan for any of you that might be interested.
