I replied too soon. Great photos -- love the detail shots of the sporran too, thanks for sharing those with us. I guess that's the next best thing to being able to see something like that in person Lucky you!

By "take," did he mean "and keep it?"
At any moment you must be prepared to give up who you are today for who you could become tomorrow.
