This competition is now closed and the winner selected. Many thanks to all those who entered. The winner was Stephen whose entry 'my wife's Christmas stocking(s)' showed fine seasonal humour. His Porter satchel should reach him before Christmas. Merry Christmas everyone.
One of my favourite bags is my Tusting Porter satchel in Aztec Crazyhorse leather. The waxed finish, like all the best leathers, improves with age and use. It's a good size for work and is carried over the shoulder or in one hand. Best of all, it's made in England by a company that's been in the same family ownership for over 130 years.

I'm pleased to be able to collaborate with Tusting to offer a Porter satchel to be won in this Christmas giveaway. Click on this link on the Tusting website, register and answer the question, 'What one essential item would you would pack in your Porter to take on a Christmas getaway?' The best reply, as chosen by us (and our decision is final), will win.
The competition closes at midnight on Saturday 19th December 2015. The winner will be notified in good time for his or her bag to be posted in time for Christmas.

This isn't me, I wanted you to see that the Porter looks good whether owned by a man or woman |
