Hi from Randers, Denmark. A Noob signing in.

Now where to start?

Just being a new member, and a noob kilt wearer, I'll try to give a brief intro.

As a small lad, i got to see a Edinburgh Tattoo, on the then only Danish TV channel.
Immediately the pipes took a grip in me. And the entertainment wasn't bad either...

I got older, and away from the subject. But didn't forget.
Being interested in history, i got thrilled by Gaelic medieval arts and crafts. as well as the Danish Viking era same.
Also the history, about the interactions, around the North sea. - This also before Lindisfarne.
I even got a summer "job", back in 88, as a part of a EU Youth exchange program.
Here i got to see Dublin, Limerick, Ennis and (London-) Derry. - No i don't want to get in to the politics around Northern Ireland.

Well. The Years passed, as did jobs as: Electronic Tech., Photographer, IT tech., coo in a grocery-store, IT supporter, Handyman/IT admin on a social service centre for Youths, not able to live at home.
All this aside having a family, with three `kids´. Being a Hifi nerd, building tube amps, playing on the air, as a Ham and taking love in the nature...
Sometimes i wonder just how my dear Wife Tina manage me!

Well. A couple of Years ago, i had a accident, that made trews uncomfortable, for a period. This made me buy a cheap kilt via eBay. And i was hooked!
I got in to family history, and found a excuse (for myself) to wear it in public. And bought a better quality PV kilt, to wear casual.
This is where i am right now. Still in the daybreak, of this new way to have freedom, in being myself. - And give a darn, in what people think...

No i'm not Scottish. I do have a squeeze of anglo/saxon and Gaelic dna in me. Sorry Brit's for my forefathers running with a Las or two!
But i have a Love towards the Gaelic culture, music and very vivid history, that make me wanna express via my dress-code...

Hope you'll find just a little sense in this...

Best regards From Denmark
