I hope this isn't going to be against any forum rules...mods please intervene if it is. Im not trying to advertise, just let others know of the bargain I found.
I was looking on the Clarke tin whistle website and ordered one of their cleaning brushes, and I noticed a whistle bag. This bag was drawstring and had pockets for whistles. I thought it would be ok to take in my van camping, keeping whistles, cleaning brush, and any music etc together and protected.
The bag was £2.50 (UK) and for that small amount I was expecting a cheap nylon bag.
When it was delivered I couldn't believe it, it's made of really thick good quality canvas, has strengthening imitation leather patches on the bottom corners, two large pockets inside, and even a keyclip on a canvas tie inside.
Im telling everyone I can about this bag, not only because Im so pleased with it, but also I think others would maybe want one if they knew how good it it...and so cheap too. I've got an A4 sized plastic pocket book that Im collecting music tabs in, and that fits in with room to spare at the top.
It's really nice, well worth a look
Whitsle Bag.

Re: Whitsle Bag.
Which bag are you talking about? On Clarke's product page https://clarketinwhistle.com/products/ I only find a pouch for one whistle, nothing for several with space for sheet music and at £ 2.50...

Here's the link, although the bag has gone up by 50p, it's now £3.00

Re: Whitsle Bag.
Thanks! I guess I didn't look far enough. Unfortunately for me in France it would cost £ 19.20 with shipping, making it pointless...

Re: Whitsle Bag.
Unfortunately, if trying to buy it alone it costs quite a bit!
Subtotal £3.00
Shipping and Handling Flat Rate: £4.50
Total £7.50 (includes £0.50 VAT)
Not such a bargain.

Re: Whitsle Bag.
Yes, it only makes sense as an add-on to something else you're buying already.

Re: Whitsle Bag.
It was an add-on...but it's such seriously good quality I still would have paid the price plus postage
