Nice. With just over 2 weeks to go until the anniversary, are you going to get it all done in time?

Nicely done! Not a scrap of tartan or painted face in sight, either!

And is that the three wolves heads of Clan Robertson I spy on that banner...? :D

It is. There´s some sources who say they weren#t there and some that say they were..but I like the pattern.  :)

BBC wrap up of the events:

And a preview of a documentary and some additional material (some parts only viewable in the UK I think, while other text/pictures/videos are viewable to all) with the ever smug Neil Oliver:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p01lyxwj

Hopfully the ABC or SBS will pick it up here in Australia for viewing later in the year.
