There is that, :)
THIS THREAD IS USELESS WITHOUT PICTS!
My kind of humor, Charles Henrickson!
Thanks!
Now it seems I have a lot more reading to do...
I hate to burst your bubble but kilts were invented in the 18th century by an Englishman for use by the men in his manufacturing plant.
The Picts were larger, lankier people who inhabited the northeastern area of Scotland. The Celts were on the western side of the island, and into the outer islands, down into what is now Wales.
If you run into men bearing the last name of “Kerr” who are > 6’6”, you’re probably looking at the remains of the Pictish genetics in Scotland.
If that is my Greatgrandmother, I am going to be a pissed Pict.
You keep picting at these people and they’re going to strike back!
