    I love it when things work out.
    When I first attended a Chicago Kilted Night Out, Auld Argonian was there in his Nightstalker, and Brewboy and I had both been talking about when/where to find one. I'd been on the list of folks to contact when Jerry got them back in, and was doing a happy kilted dude dance when I got the e-mail yesterday.

    I'm seriously jonesin' for that sporran. I mean seriously. But then, it's working its way back through time to me already.

    Well... My Nightstalker sporran isn't here yet (jones-jones..aaahh!) but I did get an email from Jerry telling me it was bagged, tagged and on route so now it's down to US / UK mail I suppose...

    I have however Ebay'd the greatest kilt pin ever (for a solid colour Kilt) I'll sneek it into the photo's when me Spozz arrives.

    I am delighted to report that my Stillwater black nylon sporran gets very frequent use as I go about my day-to-day business, and I was so thrilled with it that I ordered a brown leather version as soon as Jerry brought them out (last year or early this year). The tassels looked rather odd at first but I have got used to them now.

    Take care,
    Ham.

    Don't feel too bad, I ordered 2pr of cufflinks, 2kilt pins from ScotWeb and the postage was US$23.15. It's that trans-Atlantic/foreign postage bit. I'm closer to Scotland than to Seattle, go figure.

    Thanks for this post, I'd been waiting for the sporrans to be available again and missed it.

    So, like you, I'm now awaiting the arrival of one from the States...

    By the way, has anyone taken a good look at the photos of the NightStalker? The one showing the main pocket shows, amongst other things, a Butterfly Knife.

    That raised my eyebrows a bit.

    I'm not entirely sure that's the impression I'd want to be giving but that's just me...

    If you read the description, he references other hardware generally not to be discussed on this board.
