Indeed, times were grave back in those days.



Respectfully, Hector: have you ever been to a Kirkin' before? If not, I would ask you not to judge it before you participate in one. Not all kirkin' services are the same. You're always welcome at the one I organize
I have not been to a Kirkin before and I do not oppose it per se, I do however hold my beliefs dearly and I would not like to be 'a part' of one in any official capacity, be it as an organizer or as the person actually bringing the tartan to the altar, etc.

I can always go and watch as I'm sure plenty of people do, but as I mentioned, if I were to be a regent for my Clan in my area, wouldn't this be one of the requirements of the job?

If you pay the gas, I'm there anytime Todd!
