I was reprimanded quite rightly by Matt for saying that Linlithgow was in the 
Borders in a recent e-mail when I meant Innerleithen which is on the Tweed in 
between Galashiels and Peebles. This was where I bought a length of black and 
white plaid at the mill which had been specially woven to commemorate Sir 
Walter Scott's birthday I think. It has been used to make waistcoats for 
pipers,Ranters and pipebag covers to identify with Northumberland and seemed a 
better alternative to using red and yellow striped material as in the 
Northumberland flag.


Of course if you want a uniform what better than the navy blue suit with white 
silk scarf that was?worn in my famliy by my grand father who was a miner like 
the Cloughs.
