Thanks dexter,

so ive just sent an email off to the address you gave me to see if they can help :D
Apparantly theres more than 4000 :o
Cheers
Andy

Andy:
Just had a freindly reply from Matt, at the The Scottish Tartans Museum
in NC USA,

Andy,
 
It's really hard to ID a tartan from such a small, faded portion, but assuming these colors have been
faded, and teh orange once was a red, etc., based on what I see it appears to be a form of the Royal
 Stewart tartan, or some variation of it (like Prince Charles Edward Stuart).  Without seeing a larger
 peice of it I could not say more.
Aye,
Matt

How nice , as its not often you get replies to Qs like this :D

Sue C:
Did you show him the decanter too?

Andy:
I think i just sent him the close up of the tartan patch,
he obviously loves tartan as much as we love glass :D
I may send an email to Mel Gibson to see if he wants it ;)
Actually Scottish history is not my particular area of expertise :-\
Anyway , ive now found my own Tartan, so i may get a skirt, sorry, Kilt
made up for me ;D
Andy
