:^) Yeah, the Romans carried the kilts out on the tips of their spears, as trophies. The Caledonians got their asses kicked each time the Romans decided they needed it kicked. During the 350+ years of Roman Britain, they only felt it needed to be done four times. IOW, the Caledonians were not much of a threat.
