    I think one of the reasons that the hair of highland cattle hasn't been used for a sporran is its colour, which seems to be the same colour as most toupees one sees on the number 47 bus moving through Edinburgh traffic...

    I did see one fella wearing a pair of boots made from the hide at the games, he was working around the live display near the Gordon tent on Saturday. I thought it very strange!

    I have one coming from my wife as a Christmas present, so I can't post a pic until late December! It's more of a tan/blonde color than the orange-red associated with hieland coos....
