Could I get ya to be a little more specific about this particular use of "Clansmen" so any folk who may not know what you're talking about don't get the wrong idea? J/K <img src="/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Big difference between clansmen and klansmen. Better a skirt than a sheet anyday.

According to legend Saint Rule, an irishman was in Constantinople and was warned in a dream Saint Andrew's remains were in danger and to take them to the end of the earth for safety. He removed part of the skeleton and was shipwrecked off the east coast of Scotland, where he established a monastery and christianity among the picts who may have painted blue cow poop on their faces and certainly needed conversion.The rest of the bones were stolen and are in Italy. There is a famous golf course near the present day cathedral. Constantinople is now Istanbul where Scotman Sean Connery played James Bond in FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE running around Saint Sophia's cathedral. Istanbul is probably safe from anything being taken out with forum member Burak on duty.You won't believe what the welsh do on Saint David's day <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
