Sadly I have only just stumbled upon this thread - and felt obliged to 'have my say'. I added the Cornish National to my Kilt Kollection in 2006 and, although I have no known connections with that part of the United Kingdom, it is a tartan that has given me much pleasure to wear. It is not, however, the easiest of tartans to co-ordinate for other than formal wear! Here I am wearing it formally when I paired the kilt with a GT Doublet from Geoffrey (Tailor) of Edinburgh:

I am proud to say that Cornovi (the Cornish tartans specialists) have me as part of the 'banner' on the Kilt Sales page of their website (http://www.cornish-tartans.co.uk) - I am second from the left!
Take care,
Ham.
