    Any Kilters In This Pipe Clan?

    I'm Irish with some Scots ancestry; nope, not wearing a kilt and definitely not a gold Irish one... When my niece married a guy from Glasgow about half the male guests were wearing kilts (wedding was in Suffolk, England) much to the amusement of the locals. A year later they went to a friends...
