Nordic Sporrans
It arrived today!! another first in Tasmania (of that I am sure).
Perfect Piccies Properly Posted Perchance you may Peruse them.
The leather is SO soft, I keep inviting people to put their hand inside to feel the leather, not sure why they are so reluctant...
David, what leather is it?

Beautiful Graham,
I'm waiting for mine too. The pics just have me drooling more 
Could you tell me where you found a sporran strap? I've put out a number of inquiries and so far they've been met with "sorry" or silence. Seems to be little interest in selling them, yet I see them in the pics.
Thanks for any help,
Ron

Ron, for the time being, I stole a strap off another sporran.
For you, get to know a local leatherworker, or buy a dog leash and bung a couple of rivets innit.
Frankly, and I mean freelander no disrespect, but I'm surprised at how the norwegians have found a way to influence Tasmanians with their culture from such a great distance.
I'm a bit concerned that this is a prelude to another invasion, but don't tell him I said so...

Hi Ron Try here

Graham the Leather is the same type that you cover funiture with. The divider is a softer leather sheepskin (We think  )
I see you have on your Modern Gunn kilt Graham was it for me?

Graham,
A perfect picture of pure perfection, please pass on my pleasant praises to all people concerned. (I hope you get that David)
Again another great shot of a great looking sporran.

Graham, don't you just LOVE that sporran?! I certainly do mine and have found myself wearing it when I might otherwise have been going sporranless. It's something I just want to show off when I'm out and about - not that anyone around here would know a sporran from a cabin-trunk! 
By the way, just a rather personal question: what is that you are doing with your sporran strap? You appear to be wearing it ABOVE your belt, a style I have never seen before. It seems to cause the sporran to be worn unusually high. Do you always wear it thus?

Hamish, yes it may be a little high in the piccie, but I usually wear the strap over the belt, above it at the back, crossing over to below the belt at the front.
