    Is the cord on your earphones long enough so you can listen to your ipod while wearing the sporran?

    I know you didn't ask me, but here's an interesting fact. The cord on my iPod Nano is long enough to reach my ears from my sporran, but if I keep the Nano in the sporran it generates static electricity from rubbing against the leather, and I get little shocks in my ears! I don't know if getting a case for the Nano would stop that; as it is I just have it loose.

    On a normal day, my sporran contains wallet, keys, cell phone, and possibly some mints and eye drops. If I'm gonna be out and about without the wife, I swap the wallet for a small leather organiser thingy, and add a zippo, pipe tool, a 1/4 bent Dublin, and a pouch or tin of whatever I'm in the mood for. Lately that's been Mac Baren's Plumcake or Whiskey Cavendish, purchased in bulk from my local tobacconist.

    Really?? Wow, that is wild! I haven't experienced that. I have however always had a silicone type case on every iPod I've worn in the sporran (Nano, Classic, and now the Touch...) Not sure if that's what's preventing me from the same experience?

    That's good to know. I recently got my first iPod (I'm "somewhere between forty and death" and got the iPod to listen to lectures and recorded books - yeah, I'm an old fogie) and hadn't thought about carrying it in my sporran.
