Jimmy...whew! I was worried there that someone had "mislabeled" the Mackenzie tartan!

Bubba: Tell your Dutch neighbours about the "Dutch" tartan -- it's full name is "Dutch-Mackay", in honour of Baron Mackay, who was Prime Minister of the Netherlands and the Chief of the Clan Mackay in the 19th century. The Mackays fought for the Dutch during the 30 Year's War (because the Mackays were militant Protestants, and the Calvinist Dutch were fighting the Catholic Spanish), and many of them, along with other Scottish mercenaries, settled in Holland. So, your Dutch neighbours can wear a kilt!

for a picture of the Dutch Tartan, second from left. The colours are red, white and blue for the Dutch flag, although originally the flag was orange, white & blue for the House of Orange (William of Orange, "Good King Billy" and all that!)

Cheers!
