    Just a little *yaaay*

    Aside from kilt fabric, I haven't splurged on much of anything for myself in the kilt department for quite a while. OK, yeah, I bought myself a $5.00 anchor kilt pin this summer. sheesh. So it was kind of cool when the Athletic Director handed me my cert. for winning the 50+ Masters Class at the Seaside Games and said " take this to the Buzz Kidder booth. You get $40 of anything in the booth for winning your class."

    WOW! cool.

    So I am now the proud owner of a Buzz Kidder black Rob Roy sporran, which will replace my *extremely* tired el cheapo sporran I got off of ebay, three years ago. Even black shoe polish and a load of Panache's elbow grease couldn't quite restore that tired sporran.

    Yay for Me!

    Alan,

    I know you are going to enjoy your new Buzz Kidder sporran, but boy, talk about earning one the hard way!

    Cheers
