Some choose the Tartan by their name, some are gifted their name from the tartan!

Which tartan speaks to you? They all have a story!

Let me tell you that I love you!!! And I think about you all the time!.. bucket list moment I have dreamt of this since my very first trip to Scotland almost 30 years ago!!! Playing the great highland bagpipe on the valley floor of the great Glencoe! Played some tunes for me, played some tunes for others, played some tunes for my father and played some tunes for my mother. A day I’ll not forget!!!

About yesterday! There aren’t the words… but I’ll try!
A gorgeous Edinburgh day with a stunning Scottish lass! Singing tunes, dancing, blethering, laughing, walking… lots of walking… a wee pint or two. Only part missing was .tappr but my wee wifee took good care of me. The saying goes the cup is full… but our cup is more than full, it’s overflowed, emptied out and washed away all that wasn’t in the right cup so that it can be filled with a whole lot more of the good stuff! was the greatest musical event I’ve ever attended! Life can happen when you make room! .ig

The wonder that exists in here!!! The leading tartan manufacturer in the world that my family has proudly been working with for over 35 years! Fond memories of touring the mill with both Mum and Dad (separate years) 20 odd years ago.
