And yet, Phil, you seem to worry about it quite a bit. No one is making you buy a clan tartan, and by your own posts, an actual traditional kilt is some ways off in the future for you, so what about this concerns you now? Are you finding tartans that you'd like to wear but don't feel entitled, and this is creating some cognitive dissonance for you? It seems that you've already found a list of tartans that is acceptable to you, so why not decide that clan tartans are off limits for you and be done with it? Choose one from your vetted list first and see where it takes you.

As with the Mocker/Original question, there are many opinions about this matter, but the only one that matters is yours. Keep in mind that no one is actually telling you what to do, they are stating their opinion, just as beloitpiper has.

Meanwhile, enjoy that UK that hasn't arrived yet.
