Hmmmmm. Seems there is a hidden joke in here I don't get - so what else is new.
I was simply thinking of all the bright red and green in the tartan. (And not saying anything at all about the Windsors.  )

| All of the aforementioned clans have stag's head's on the chief's crest badge.

Cheers,
Todd | So then do any of those tartans have a predominantly red and green color. That would make it the perfect Christmas kilt.

How 'bout a kilted Santa suit? Well... okay maybe not. Hard to imagine without laughing.

Every year the stores are filled with these "collectable" cold-cast Santa statues portraying Santa as...well, almost everything: Santa-Golfer, Santa-Fisherman, Santa-Nascar Driver, Santa-Cop, Santa-Fireman...you get the idea...
...and I swear that there was a kilted Santa-Scotsman version of this tchatchke out there (and my daughter backs my failing middle-aged memory up on this one).
Should I find one, I'll endeavour to get a photo...

He had a white beard, and was dressed as Santa in a kilt in one of his pictures. I wish I could remember who it was.
