Today I read that the Sporran, yes the Traditional Scottish Sporran is usually/ normally made from.......wait for it...... Seal Skin!
It seems that those who produce same, are complaining that they are having trouble obtaining this item, and feel that that they are being discriminated against.
Seems a tad strange that the last talk on seals was how Canada was such a 'heathen country", when the Scots require the 'finest pelts' for their Sporrans........and by golly they are going to continue their tradition.
Kind of like the United States complaining about the Canadian Oil Sands, when it fact much of the oil produce is shipped to the Unites States, in fact they are demanding that Canada raise their output!
Perhaps those from the UK who do the shouting, should take a look closer at Hame! Without demand there would be no supply.
