Abstract
The fierce looking Clan MacDuibhne make a fine shock troop at the head of the Clan Parade. Bystanders, Scots and tourists, cheer and take photographs. 'Looks like the Jacobites have returned at last', observes an elderly gentleman, and a group of Spanish tourists ponder whether the Clansmen's strange language is Gaelic. It is, in fact, Bavarian, an alpine German dialect The fictitious Clan MacDuibhne are a troupe of historical re-enactors who have flown in from Southern Germany. They decided that if Homecoming Scotland 2009 was all about kilts and pipes and clans, they surely were entitled to come home, too. They were right and ended up leading the Clan Parade.
