Well yes they would, except that probably they are busy on a website of their own interests.
I have a wee excuse though, at the age of three score years and ten, plus a tad, so too old to ride to hounds and when there are no fish in the river and nothing to shoot at, what else is there to do? Apart from chatting to very pleasant chaps like you.
Being serious for a moment, we in Highland Scotland even when we are not even thinking about it, are surrounded by our heritage for all our lives 24/7. I am for example, at this moment in time am sat within less than half an hours drive from at least 15 places that are of historical significance to all Scots. The kilt, our National attire, is generally donned without a thought or fuss to do whatever we may in it, however, we know the significance of it should the thought occur and we don't need an excuse to wear it.
It is very apparent on this website that our thought processes are understandably very different from those outwith these shores. The same interest for sure, but inevitably, the perspectives are very different.
