    Graham,

    Great pics (and no, you cannot borrow my photographer - there's nothing wrong with yours!).

    Two comments: 1) That's a very large one you have there! I've not seen such a large Haggis. Is it a result of the unique Tasman air?
    Nice looking shirt too. A Jacobite perhaps?

    2) Nice piccie of the dunny, mate! Nice kilt too.

    Being of the Gunn Clan myself - yes, strange but true - I'm wondering if you've stumbled across the Weathered Gunn tartan on your travels? I saw it some three years ago, fell in love with it and ordered an 8 yarder immediately from Geoffrey (Tailor) in Edinburgh. My oldest kilt (July 1973) is also a Gunn, but in the Ancient Colours, which are nicely muted. On the whole I do not care for Modern Colours tartans as the colours are generally a bit harsh, but yours looks good - in front of the dunny!

    Hamish, both Modern and Ancient Gunn is very similar to Modern and Ancient Morrison (my clan preference).

    I have seen the ancient Gunn, (a close friend has it) it's beautiful, as is ancient Morrison.

    Sadly, those tartans are only available in the better scottish wools which means a top quality (and priced) kilt.

    I trust my next kilt will be Ancient Morrison.
