"National Tartan Day - 2012 . . . "
Bruce Campbell, at Edinburgh Castle |
Greetings,
As per our usual around here . . . the blessed date of April 6th has finally reared its plaid head on this morning's calendar . . . and there was great rejoicing as National Tartan Day once again dawns brightly in the east. And though the holiday was originally marked for those if us with Scottish blood to celebrate our heritage . . . as also per usual . . . we're just going to just be a little more literal - wallow in plaids and tartans around here.
Get a fresh cup of Scottish Breakfast tea . . . and let's get ready to get tartan . . .

Why the heck did I not stay in the Highland Hotel when I was in Inverness? Looks beautiful.
I will pull out some bit of tartan to wear as an homage today .
and there's that wonderful Nick Wooster again!
PS. I bet the "Scottish Spaceman" was at "Comicon" I recognize the "ambience" as we've taken our sons to it several times. Our one son even dresses up-
Bless all the nerds-they're our sweetest people!
Happy Easter,
