Congratulations on a great addition Ham. 
You do some excellent work Glen.
I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear

Great work Glen! What a wonderful gift.
The question is though, does his lairdship have shoes to match? 
Cheers

I am so pleased to see the set on you with your wonderful Green Sporran, you have no idea how I agonized over the colour. To tell the truth I was ready to scrap it and start again, as I was sure it would not match sufficently, it is a great relief to see that it does. It was a pleasure to make them for you my hope is that they bring you many years of wear. Alex, thank you again for acting as courier, it really was a pleasure having you over in Toronto.

Thanks guys for the compliments but it was all down to Glen - AND Alex! How could I forget Alex? I thanked him personally for transporting these wonderful accessories from Canada and into my hands at the Harpenden Gathering, but I should like now to do so publicly.
So, Alex - Thank You for doing that. I know it was a last minute arrangement and I hope you were not inconvenienced at either end of your journey as a result.
Warm thanks to Glen and to Alex.
Take care,
Ham.

Very nice. I really like that green color. It reminds me of an old Jaguar E-Type.

Oh, the possibilities! I think echoing the shirt or hose color would make for some smashing ensembles. Purple or green with my IOS. Gold or rust with the Bear. And, of course, grey or blue [maybe even yellow] with XMTS. Stick with black or brown for shoes and sporran.
Too much?
