Yes and I have great respect for them too but I didn't exchange Bruce and Cumming debate with them. There is a very long standing, nay ancient feud exists between the Cummings and the Bruces.
I believe Todd and I have allowed the intervening 700 years of water to pass beneath our mutual Bridge since Robert the Bruce murdered John "the Red" Comyn in a church in Dumfries, and that although I descend down the Bruce line and he the Comyn, I think we have agreed that I am not personally responsible for that brutal and treacherous attack. 
EDIT: Hello Todd. Happy Christmas mate!!

A fine example, for the unwary, of why the mixing of different clan tartans can unwittingly cause upset. Also, a fine example of gentlemen coming to terms, peaceably, with a clan feud.
