My new Matt Newsome kilt

[Colonel MacNeal]

I can't find the pic(s). But I've always thought there should be a Normandy (Normandy) Tartan. Three reasons: give the residents of Normandy a reason to wear the kilt, honor the veterans of the 1944 Normandy Invasion, honor the veterans of the 1066 Norman Conquest that supplied Scotland with many of its clans.

Congratulations to the both of you.

It was still a good idea, nonetheless.

Being a resident of the Republic of Texas, though -- you really need a Texas Bluebonnet tartan kilt. A good friend of mine from DFW and our clan society's webmaster just received his from Matt, and I'll get to see it tonight at a Scottish function!
