my new belt
I was up in Stratford Ontario the other day and dropped in on my old friend Robert at R-kilts
http://www.rkilts.com/
I had few hours to kill so we had coffee chatted a bit (well a lot )
and got up to date with what we where up to, and all the latest news.
I was looking at the belts he makes,as mine is a bit small now, due to me putting on a few pounds. he very kindly agreed to make me one as I waited and watched. very well made. it was kinda cool to see Robert at work.
he has a nice little shop/workshop on York street, and later in the evening we went a few doors down and had supper in a nice little cafe.
thanks Robert for a nice day and a very nice new belt.
oh yes I forgot, I got a nice new pair of kilt sox too. bit itchy for me due to the 25% wool, but it was not too bad.
the silver buckle is an old one of mine, the black powder coated buckle is one I got from Robert that day

Phil it was a blast! I was so pleased to see you come to the shop.
Also to catch up on your business ventures. It was awesome.
It's not often I have the opportunity to make something with the customer watching the process, I truly enjoyed that.
Take care mate hope to see you again soon
Cheers

Congratulations on the belt, I've got one of Robert's belts and just love it. It really is a nice we shop, and Stratford is a great town. Glad the photo worked out as well. Perhaps we can get you out to the next kilt night we have in Stratford.
