The "CROM A BOO" banner has something to do with the Fitzgerald's. Some time on google may reveal more info. Oh, and very nice pictures.

You're on the right track. 'Crom a Boo' is an Anglicisation of the Irish, Crom abú, the motto of the Fitzgeralds. It basically means 'Crom to victory'. (Crom was a pagan Irish deity of the earth.)

Great outfit as always, Jonathan. Love that sporran, and it looks good on you.

Thanks for sharing those amazing photos with us. What a grand friend you have to loan the sporran to you. PDCorlis is correct, there is nothing quite like real... old... stuff.
