    Is it true that kilt wearers may have to obtain licences for their sporrans?

    never heard o that one lil..cant imagine it somehow as its basically a pouch like wallet thing,,i know the skean dhu ( knife in sock) was made illegal but i think the sporrans are safe,,

    remind me to show you a GREAT pic of my wee grandson in a kilt last month at a wedding ,,even the shop wanted pics of him in it,to use as advertising,,man i wept when i seen him in it,,rolling about the floor with his nappy off with his wee william hanging out LOL..

    Yes lil fek, tis true.

    Kilt wearers could face prosecution if they do not have a licence for their sporran under new legislation which has been introduced in Scotland.

    Rubes your posts made me laugh so much lol and yeah thanks for that EJ after reading it I’m wondering how they will determine the date of the fur if the the legislation applies to animals killed after 1994 and how will anyone be able to prove when and if the animal was killed lawfully..is it just me or is this totally insane? How much will it cost and does it apply to fur coats?

    Reading it again yes it does:

    “The regulations require anyone who owns any part of a protected animal to obtain a licence.”

    What about stuffed animals and handbags.. it’s never ending. Although, hopefully nobody has a handbag made of hedgehog!
