Art, shame you don't like Drambuie - I bloody love it! gmace99 I was of course teethed with whisky - that is just standard lol. My pals mum use to put a wee bit of whisky in his milk! I went for Afternoon Tea today and winked round the table about the 'cream tea'. The English wimin did not laugh and Adam just just gave me the sigh of a long-suffering man. I'll have to remember about liking to dip ginger nuts for the next time :D

Aberlour is my favourite easy drink whisky. I also like Talisker and love Laphroaig. I really like Drambuie, have you tried that? It's a whisky liqueur, but the recipe supposedly came from Bonnie Prince Charlie so it's grand. First time I got drunk was with my Dad on Rusty Nails (whisky and Drambuie). I was 12, my mum was not pleased.

gmace99 I have fruit pudding in my freezer, it's my Scottish visitor tax. I can't get and miss - Edinburgh chippy sauce, black bun and fresh butteries (from when I lived in Aberlour for a few summers). Zuludog I have been known to wear one when dog training.

You're a bloody poet gmace99 Fanny pack/bumbags went out in the 80s in the UK Zuludog, along with shell suits and the mullet lol

lol gmace99 that was very delicately put

Love them!

Wow Aaron, that is incredibly generous!

Love the Robbie Coltrane story. My sisters and I pretty much grew up in a rugby club as a kid. As a consequence my Da was brought in to see the headmaster an awful lot. One of the more shameful time was for me shouting 'You're a fud' at my teacher in primary school. Oh dear. I still think it is one of the worst insults, reserved only for the truly, irredeemably stupid. Only time I ever used it was after Adam just passed his test and reversed into a bollard... then kept reversing, stopping and starting several times, with a look of utter confusion on his face :D I was an innocent when I went to gmace99 for leather help. Came out swearing like a sailor lol. Hope the move is going well matey. I've got my eye on Ebay - don't think your mate had anything. Give me a shout if you hear of any sales.

Thank you very much everyone. Will look at the vids right now Art lol Kevin, I forget all the time that people have no idea what I am talking about. Thank you for translating for me Zuludog :D I blame gmace99 he makes me too Scottish hehe.

Will keep an eye on ebay as well, thanks guys, Tandy don't sell the powder dye any more. I need some brown dye for edging, can I just use Fiebings oil dye or do I need to buy the special edging stuff (before I go wasting money)? Went to a place this morning and they were selling dog leads - they were not a patch on mine was chuffed to bits.

You did a braw job then, it is really cool.

You are a wee legend as ever

That's really nice, what's the stingray feel like? Was it nice to work with?

Hey, I am beyond poor, but I am loving my leather work. I want to buy a round knife as a recent play with one says that it is a really useful tool. I am in the UK. Le Prevo has one for £25, which is ridiculously low. Has anyone used one, is it ok or basically crap? http://www.leprevo.co.uk/photos/round-knife.html The other option is the Osborn #70 which is £60 and will take me a few months to save up for. http://www.handtools-uk.com/p116-70-round-knife-osborne-ref-70 Really grateful for advice as ever.

Had a brilliant day with George at his shop, wee legend that the man is. Edging is sorted, I just need some practice! Need to get better at handling a round knife, it's a lot harder than it looks and the only thing that's really given me trouble so far. Partner is now bugging me for a glasses case
