Bruce, first of all, welcome to X Marks. Secondly: Alas, no, I am not!
Have you ever listed out the previous 89 on the board for us all to peruse?
No, I've not listed all 89 - maybe I did a few years back when there were possibly only 25 or so in The Kilt Kollection. My photo album has always been a point of reference but, just at the moment it is undergoing a 'behind the scenes' make-over. Thanks to Steve, the technical side has been taken care of, now it's down to me to deal with the content. All I need is more hours in each day - and less starting of nonsense threads such as this one!!
My guess, it's a Tartan Army tartan used by the football (soccer) fans or, if you'll allow me a second bite at the juniper berry, a Scottish Rugby Union (SRU) tartan?
Am I even close?
'Fraid not, Bruce. I've had a Kinloch Anderson Breacan in the 'Tartan Army' tartan since 1998, and the RFU does not appeal to me very much.
Tanks for trying though.
Take care,
Ham.

Hamish, are we going to see the grand unveiling of the new kilt at Harpenden Gathering?
Are you really going to keep us all in suspense for another sixteen days?
I'm off to hide behind a cannon.

Ham,
Thanks for replying! Well, if you aren't super-rich, you must really love your kilts, that's for sure!
I only have the one, my Fraser Hunting kilt, and am pleased to say that my stepson, aged 11, wears a McDonald one, being a Howe by birth. My wife has just bought a ladies kilted skirt, Ancient Dress Fraser, for her brother's wedding which we are attending in the Czech Republic in August.
So, it'll be three lots of tartan on display!
I'll be following this thread avidly to see what your new one turns out to be!
Cheers
Bruce

Now there's a thought, Alex, but am I able to spin this out long enough for that? Let's see what suggestions continue to arrive, eh? Oh, I am having such fun with this!
Well, if you are off to do as you say, I hope you will be properly dressed this time!!! 
Take care,
Ham.

Ian,
I came to that conclusion a year or two ago, but have done nothing about it. Soon I'll have to consider sleeping under canvas in the garden - maybe I will, if Summer ever arrives!!
Take care,
Ham.
