Wearing both ancient and modern

Jock Scot is right on the money-- come on lads, it's history, not hatred. The way forward for Scotland is just that-- FORWARD-- not mired in past, pretending to be aggrieved over some clan nonsense from centuries long past.

Well if you are not too keen on the Black Watch, why don't you gird up your loins and take it up with them. I bet you are not man enough. If you cannot put up, then shut up.

Spot on, Jock. I never ceased to be amazed at the occasional vituperative out pouring of anti-Black Watch bile that one comes across from time to time on this forum. Like you, as a former soldier, I find remarks like these highly insulting.

Jock and MoR,

The matter has been dealt with.

Let the ladies and Gentlemen of XMTS feel free to continue their discussion here without further interruptions.

Cheers

Jamie

Thank you for that. Now! Where were we?

I suppose this means I'll have to ask my mates in the Royal Highland Loamshire's (the Fighten' Nancy Boys) to stand down. Oh well. Back to the fun stuff!

I was nearly ready to lead "The Gin and Tonics" over the top too.
