My girlfriends brother has SRU tartan!
As I go for district tartans that represent me I would like to get a cheap casual kilt in a British Isles type tartan (I already have Halesowen & Black Country).
What tartans would people recommend? First thing in my head is royal stewart which would be fine but I'm just curious as to if there are any less obvious choices

Hunting Stewart is the nicer (not to mention quieter) of the Stewart Universals available at casual Poly-V prices. Black Watch is also a safe bet as a casual universal and nice and subdued as well. Plain Black might go with the Black Country theme too.
Great Picture by the way Nervous Jock!!

Nervous Jock....
You dont know if the Gunners ever did a tartan? Not seen one - although I do recall seeing the SRU one some time ago....
I just bought myself a 'Scottish National' to wear to the Calcutta this year at Twickenham....
You going to any of the home games?

you mean Edinburgh Rugby!! No never got round to it not sure how much of a market there would be to be honest, for kilts at least. Maybe Scarfs and wee things.
Will be at all 5 again this year, last 6n game I missed was Ireland in 2000 so that will make 49 out last 50 home and away, ouch thats a power of money

Yeah the SRU does have a tartan - my girlfriends brother has a kilt in it.
I recently discovered the British Lions have a tartan: http://www.lochcarron.com/reiver/british_lions.html
I really like this, though I dislike the coat of arms woven into it
