Quality Sporrans for less money

Nice WE Scott seal Evening sporran with the "D" (diamond) pattern cantle for a dollar.

I haven't looked closely, but the cantle might be the higher-level silver-plated type.

If so, it will probably have "Made in Scotland" in tiny letters stamped on one side.

That's funny but I understand. Sometimes you have to say that when referring to Oakland. My brother used to live right on the border with Piedmont and he just told people he lived in Piedmont - no explanation necessary and it avoided the "oh I'm sorry" looks. I'm in OC for the time being, looking after my dad who had a lengthy stay in the hospital back in Dec/Jan.

Yes often I'll say "my nieces live in a part of Oakland that feels like you're in Berkeley" and everybody from the Bay Area knows exactly where it is.

And yes, it's faster (and in a way more accurate) to just say they live in Berkeley.
