mate. if I had the cash I'd definitely have at least two of your bags. I love local business and am a huge fan of bespoke handmade equipment. I do have a friend who is VERY keen in ordering one of your big bags. He's an archaeologist (like me) and lives out of a bag most of the time and I've been telling him how much the shiznit your stuff is. He just wants a direct email address and it's 99.9% a sale for you chief.

.

yeah, i warned of that but he's more than happy to wait for decent goods. I'd expect an email from a guy called Aleck if I were you.

• managed to nab him from ordering a timbuktu bag if that helps
  

Nice flap.

i too am dying to send some cash scott's way, these are some exquisite knapsacks and no mistake.

MrSmith only one 'p' in hapiness

Oh bugger, I missed that, to be perfectly honest I'm realy happy with it just the way it is, for what it's worth this was the inspiration,

it's a friend's kitchen sink, and the picture on the bag is of her husband, who painted this is the first place. Great place, even better people, so what am I here, not there? I must be mad.

Anyway, Scott the bag looks amazing, can't wait to get my hands on it, just the thought of it fills me with haPPiness.

It's a good job you're a photographer, not a writer...

Yeah, I thought that didn’t look right and my spellchecker definitely says it's "happiness", so there!
Rather more worryingly, why did it take someone else to raise this before it even occurred to me to check it? It must be MrSmith's authorative tone, or more likely coz it was late and I'm was just chuffed at how well the bags come out, so I’m still overflowing with haPPiness either way :)

how many p's in hippiness?

Surely it was a wind up?

Yeah, you're probably right, I shouldn't log onto the forum late at night after my brain has gone to sleep. Ah well.

.

if i'm posting it's a 50/50 chance of being a wind up.

...and matt i can give you the cash for that t-shirt at the same time...if my mate dosnt phone me to thank me for it, after sending it in the post, do i still have to pay? ;)

scott not scot

Picked my bag up from Scott yesterday and it is utterly fabulous. As Scott said it's taken quite a while for this to come together and over the passing months my expectations for how the finished bag would ultimately come out had grown to ridiculous proportions, anyway the finished bag more than exceeds all of them. It's comfortable to wear, a pleasure to use, has all sorts of cleverly thought out little details (especially the accessory straps) and aesthetically speaking has come together exactly as I wanted it to.
I realise everyone’s going to think their bag is the business, but sorry the rest of you are wrong, nice as the rest undoubtedly are, my Grobag is just the very bestest of them all. So thanks a million to Scott and thanks also to Naomi Ryder for taking care of the embroidery. In case anyone hadn’t guessed I’m kinda happy with my bag :)

scott not scot .it should get more comfortable as it breaks in too..:)

bet you say that to all the guys...
