    Now there's a coincidence!

    One evening last week, I was quietly minding my own business when there came a ring at my front door bell. It was my old pal Dave W.

    As chance would have it, I was wearing my beautiful Isle of Skye kilt (Barb Tewksbury) and MY matching Isle of Skye lidded sporran (also Thorfinn Sporrans - Turpin).
