I love this thread, everytime I see it come back up. theleveller, thanks. Like the song very much!

One of the family papers I inherited is a title to what was said to be the first Clydsdale to come to western Colorado, via purchased by my great-grandfather. I didn't know about it when I named my son, Colin, but "Lord Meldrum's" sire was a "Colin" something; I'll have to look it up. It's got a great, orange-red seal from Scotland on it, etc.
