    Outstanding combination, Brian. Thanks for setting it up!

    It was great to meet you and your wife, as well.

    Bob,

    Nice pictures. I have a question. Were does one get a nice wide belt like the one you are wearing? I think I have seen pictures of Graham wearing the same sort of thing. I can't seem to find a 2" brown belt like that.

    Thanks,
    mudd

    These belts are not really that expensive (I paid almost the same price for one, and that was twenty-something years ago!) and they are authentic and 'correct' for casual kilt wear. The belts with flat, decorative 'plate' buckles are really intended for Dress wear, although I do have a brown pigskin belt with a plate buckle in brass which I very occasionally wear as 'very smart casual'!!

    Most of the day-wear belts seen in my Photo Album, came from a Spanish leatherworker's stand in London's Covent Garden Market, where they are still to be had at around £14.00/£15.00.
