These days there's a day for everything, and today it's Tartan Day.

Did you know that O2 has its very own official registered tartan? It was designed by Brian Wilton in 2007 and was registered on the Scottish Register of Tartans. And perhaps coincidentally, or designed by futurologists, the sporran just happens to be a perfect size to keep your smartphone wink

What do you think of our tartan? Being Scottish myself, I may be a little bias, but I love the blend of blues with the red threading for contrast... It just makes it pop!

Anyone here got their own tartan or kilt, or is it not really your 'thing'?

"Sporran invented to hold your smartphone" joyjoy

Really made me laugh @Chris_K

I loved Tartan when it was fashionable in the 70's (No I didn't like the Bay City Rollers yahoo) but as I'm not Scottish I'm not really into it now...Sorry...wink

Tartan's always fashionable - it's utterly timeless and just oozes class. I'd actually love my own kilt made in O2 tartan - not because I work for them, but I genuinely love the colour blend.

I know it's timeless and oozes class @Chris_K though it's not for everyone.Fear

PS... a picture of you in a kilt would be much appreciated joy

This is actually a really cool Tartan @Chris_K! I might have to pick something up in this although I don't think I have the legs for a Kilt! joy

Haha, yeah it's really not for everyone. I'm sure I've got a photo from a *cough* few years ago wink

I'll have a hunt over the weekend for it

@Cleoriff I'll see if @Chris_K is willing to lend me his kilt joy Unless that's a big no no, I'm unsure of the rules surrounding kilt loans!
