That's why they sell the sporran. The correct location is where it is high but still low enough to weight down the apron.

A quick weighing down with your hand helps too; as you sit place your hand down between your legs to insure that the material falls between your legs.

And yes, the sporran helps immensely

Aye, practice the quick 'legs-open-sporran-push-down' when taking a seat and it'll become second nature to you.

...and choose who you sit across from carefully. ;-)

I haven't the slightest idea what you're talking about!

You know what I meant

Aye, Chasem, I did, but just like my post about pulling the hose up over my thighs (not that you commented on it!), I had to have some fun and point out the misintended posting! Many a slip between the head and keyboard!

Yeah yeah, I understand.

Only reason I didn't comment on your "thighs" was because I didnt' notice
