Dunedin Scottish

However, I almost walked out with a sporran that was made locally. I forget if Darryl said it was his son or son-in-law, but he does leather work. It was a nice, plain, black sporran, magnetic catsh, wide mouth, and made from a very soft and supple leather. It is the third up from the bottom on the left hand side. That row has an extra sporran on the left side with tassels (another one made by the same person), and the one next to it with no tassels and the medallion on the flap is the one. The mouth of the sporran was also a nice big size.

That sporran looks very much like the Country Sporran available at the Scottish Tartan Museum and a few other places. I have the Country Sporran and it is the sporran I use the most.

Hey BP, where is your cousin? In Tampa or Brandon? Or possiblt misled by the shops name as it is NOT in Dunedin anymore. I talked with Darryl, the owner, and they moved out of Dunedin many years ago because of rent costs and their building being torn down. Too bad as we used to live in Oldsmar, which is a very short drive to Dunedin!

I do believe that is the Country Sporran, the are really a good value for the price. I have one and I really like it, they are soft and roomy.

Yes it is true, Dunedin Scottish is no longer in Dunedin, they have moved to the East side of Tampa.

Speaking of Dunedin, have any of you been to the Sunday afternoon bagpipe band concerts in the city park there? I think it's Highland Park. I lived a few miles North of Dunedin for almost 15 years.

Small world isn't it?

Darn it I spent a week outside of Tampa over the holidays. I would've made it a point to try and go there. Even just to cheer myself up. It was a rough holiday.

Of course then I might have bought something and I was already broke when I got home......
