    Time to pack

    Well just finished a black leather kilt, my dad should be arriving soon. It's about time I start packing...why? Well. My father wants to go back and visit his homeland, and I get to go. In about 18 hours my dad and I will be heading of Toronto to catch a flight to England. The Ham-mobile will be picking us up and take us to his lovely part of the country. I know he's itching for that leather kilt...not sure if I should have it ready for him right off the bat or wait till after morning tea.
    We will be there for a couple of days but I'm unsure if that's long enough to view the Kilt Kollection.
    Dad and I then go back to Holland. It's been 19 years since I went back home so I expect a few changes. Robin will have to wait till April 30th at the Scotfest in Tilburg Holland before he gets his Rosemary Kilt. I wonder if I will make it through the entrance gate?....
    Really looking forward to this. Taking plenty of batteries and a couple of camera's and hopefully we will be able to get at least one picture.
    Please everyone here have a safe couple of weeks...do a random act of kindness and make someone smile.
    Cheers
    Robert

    Travel safely, Robert ....... and don't let any Customs officers near my kilt!!

    The Ham-mobile is primed and ready to transport you and Henk to Ham Palace ..........and, if I don't get my hands on that kilt at the airport I'll be leaving you there for a couple of days - so let's have none of your nonsense about waiting until after morning tea before handing it over. Huh, the very idea!

    I also have a goodly supply of camera batteries and am expecting to post some photos of this historic visit within a few days.

    Yes, I am back on-line at last, but only just, so beware!

    Don't forget to stop off at the post office before you go, Robert. Jonathan is SO jonesing for that kilt. It was great you could get it done before your trip.

    Have a good visit with all the folks over the water.
