Due to increased senility I wonder if someone could jog my recollection. I think there is someone on here, whom I have met and who manufactures bags?

Could be confusing where I met him. Have a wee project and wanted some guidance.

Thanks

Paul

Thanks for the useless advice to date!

No, bags, as in handbags and sports/holdall type bags.

The last of my family who sewed mail bags was back in the 70's in Wormwood Scrubs!

Please remember that anyone who tried to make the connection with my family and organised crime, sadly committed suicide by shooting themselves in the head...three times....with the same gun. Strange coincidence! Cabbish!!!! Just saying.

Paul, send me a text tomorrow and remind me to send you details. I think I know of some people in Glasgow that might be able to help you.

^^^^^ morning Jen. Steven here ;-) and Por911T - Thanks for the mention :-)

Can't assist with the sports bag alas, but carriers or the jute bag can do for you. I work for the aforementioned Marshall Wilson. Drop me a line if I can be of any help.

Paul, knowing your fascination with sheep is this the sort of thing you're looking for?



Or are you looking for something more bespoke, a holdall that you can discretely transport a full adult sheep in?

I recall there was a young Asian guy who came on one of the runs/events who said he had a factory making bags? I possibly met him elsewhere, but thought it was through here.

In an effort to prolong the mirth, I thought i'd post a picture of a colostomy bag.

A quick Google image search and all i've achieved is putting me off my lunch vomit
