    Well according to that article I need to hang up my kilt and burn my bagpipe music. 107 years in this country have eradicated any connection to Scotland I guess. I wonder if it would be more acceptable if we called it Britain Day instead of Tartan Day? There seems to be a bit of anger towards Tartan in the article, as well as several comments made about the article.

    In a world of choice, the writer chooses to "be" English as is his right, some of the comments about the tat shops are right on target, if he chooses not to be "scottish" despite his father its his choice,
    some of the comments demonstrate breathtakeing ignorance though.
