    :rofl: So I presume that's the official tartan of your clan, huh? How does it work? Is it the clan from your Dad's side or something? Do you always wear it to weddings and things?

    Honestly I don't have much clue how it really works. I get my clan - MacLaren - from my Dad, who gets it from his mum, so I think its just a choice thing really - although it used to be that the lady would join the clan of the man she married. But honestly, I'm not precisely up to scratch on that...

    Anyways! Creag an turic!

    Heh, ok. My brother is a big F1 supporter and wouldn't mind belonging to a MacLaren clan in the slightest!

    Interesting combination! I love III and V the best; VI would be in there, if it wasn't for the damn teddy bears

    And yes, the Empire may have the better capital ships; but in terms of point-to-point snubfighters, the rebellion kicks arse. X-wing? Greatest starship ever created! THen of course there's the A-wing. Those two ships are the real reason the Rebellion won the war. That and the fate of the Empire wasn't decided in space, but in that massive throne room. Innit?
    Stupid Ewoks. They caused the destruction of the Death Star II :mad: And Rebel snubfighters The TIE Interceptors, Defenders and the X1 Advanced were so much better than the rebel starfighters. If only the Empire actually built enough to defeat the rebellion:rolleyes: And yes Vader's betrayal did play a large part in the fate of the Empire. If only Mara jade had succeeded in killing Luke on taooine:mad:

    I hope that the *runs* is because you've realised you haven't killed enough Jedi yet for your Sith training Lady (insert Sith name)

    Hmm you could be the Lady Lumiya or Yuthara Ban. Actually I think Yuthara Ban would probably be better. Her views on Sith Philosophy were pretty enlightening.
