Recently I have picked up a couple of books with Lamont connections. First was "Seasons with the Sea-Horses", by James Lamont, originally printed in 1861. This book recounts his adventures in the Artic in 1858-59. It is available on http://abebooks.com. Second is "Records of Argyle - Legends, Traditions, and Recollections of Argyleshire Highlanders by Lord Archibald Campbell, published 1885. This has been republished by Scot Press and is available from Unicorn Books along with many other reprints of Scottish books. Worth checking out!
BTW If we could have a couple of chairs available when we are at the games it would be appreciated. My wife doesn't do a lot of walking around the games but does a good job of "manning the tent" when I get lost.

I always bring 4 chairs with me and I am usually the only one there so we have that covered.
I also usually have a cooler with ice and bottled water.
Thanks so much for the plan. Is there anything we can bring? I will have my wife, Sue, and my daughter Pam with me so the tent will be full We might even have a couple of MacDonalds with us, Pam's friend Teresa and her brother who might break out his kilt. BTW a proud scot would not be upset as to what his kilt revealed although I did see a guy at the games with suspenders. Never underestimate the abilities of a scot to improvise.

Thanks, I think I have everything covered.
The more the merrier
There is usually a big tent in the middle of the clan area that will seat probably about 100 folks where they do the Highland Dances so if need be we can all gather in there if the dancers are not using it.
I just wore my jacket and waist coat to cover them up. I talked to the lady in SAMS that is a kilt maker and she said as much as I have lost so far that it needs to be taken apart to shorten and relocate the straps like she had hoped. Mr Turner that was there for a bit mentioned I may want to just get a new Kilt when I level out and keep this one in case I find again what I have lost "LOL"
And I read books related to cryptocurrency. This topic has been of great interest to me lately. I recently chose an exchange for work and found this review https://tradersunion.com/brokers/crypto/view/kucoin/. It talks about the KuCoin exchange. As a result, this exchange arranged everything for me and I registered there. While everything is pleasant and extremely clear. So I recommend that you also think about investing in cryptocurrency.
Kilts tend to shrink over time. The only Lamont kilt that I have that still mostly fits is an 18 oz. weathered. Way to HOT for most wear here in Calif!
