    Hi there,

    We've just joined this forum and thought i'd take the time to investigate the problems with your sporran chain.

    Can you remember when you purchased the sporran from us? We have changed chain straps in the last 6 months so i'm wondering if you got an old one or a new one. What would you say could be improved upon in the quality of the chain strap?

    Fantastic job on your sporran btw - looks great! Truly original!!

    Regards,

    Great idea. You could do other sports, other teams... the possibilities are endless... three soccer ball keychains and a FC Barcelona crest on the lid perhaps???

    I agree with Rex and there's plenty of time before the Six Nations rolls around again.

    A great idea and a great inspiration! I'm going to have to make one of those. What about a Lions version for this Summer? Plenty of scope for improvisation there.

    Lol - I'm liking your thinking..... I did consider a bottle opener as the centre one and english and scottish enamel fobs either side - as I wore it to the Calcutta Cup this year.... But then I remebered that you dont need a bottle opener for a wee dram!

    Lions mod? Yes except that we've only got 2x players on the squad! Where oh where is Chris Paterson's call up? The BEST kicker in the World and he doesnt make the squad?

    Of course there are so many places that this 'type' of sporran could be worn the trick is not having too many you dont have room to store them!
