    Greetings from Sweden

    Hi there !

    I'm a blacksmith living in Sweden (born in Finland), trying to find my Scottish roots... A fellow named MacHill (or something similar, you can not be sure how it was spelt long ago) left Scotland in the first half of 1700, and moved to Finland. I always wondered why I love the sound of bagpipes...well, there is a natural reason .
    I have decided to take this seriously and ordered a kilt two weeks ago. Now I'm looking for some nice idea to make my own sporran... This forum seems to be a great source of knowledge. Nice to be here.

    all good things, Peter
