So he/she is a 'tartan legend' but not Scotish. Hmm.

Ok. So Mary Queen of Scots [ who I think may have been French ] Was learning how to do the okey kokey by Lord Cunningham, when the feather boa, made from Emu feathers brought back from Australia by Sir Walter Ralaigh, nearly throttled her?

I thought about mentioning them, but then decided against it. I'll wait to see whether I made a mistake or a good judgement call.

I'm also a little confused at the klaxons for snake & serpent but not python as a python is both a snake & a serpent.
So perhaps it's not python in the reptile sense?

Not scottish, who else wears tartan?
Welsh? Irish?
Don't some non-scottish military people (Australian maybe?) wear Tartan as part of their dress uniform?
