        Nice, what are you making with it? Boots, jackets, wallets, belts? Do I ask too many questions?  😛

          I'm guessing the other color is Orange.  I'm also guessing that the tannery is Compiel, since that looks like the same color selection as Tricker's, and that's where they get theirs.

          Oh, and probably not jackets or belts, given the size limitations of cordovan shells.  And Wesco doesn't strike me as the type to do cordovan boots, but I could be wrong.  However, IH has used cordovan for wallets, card holders, key hooks and the like in the past, and Giles had mentioned a lack of reliable sources being an issue.  So those are my guesses…

            Cordovan isn't even suitable for garments imo unless as a detail such as a reinforcement of a strap or something.

            Think it, be it.

                  Red Robin is advertising its "bottomless basket of steak fries."  I am afraid to think about how many pounds I would put away before I collapsed into a coma.

                    Haven't posted in a while.  Moving has taken more time and effort than I originally anticipated.  I'm finally installed in Miami but the heat and humidity have prevented me from wearing just about any heavy weight fabrics.  I'll see how cool it gets over the "winter" to decide if I maintain my collection or off-load some of it.  It's really fucking hot here.  All the time.

                      My sympathies.  It must be one hell of an adjustment.

                      Emphasis on the "hell" portion…

                          Two things: first, my daughter has decreed that my car is now named "Strawberry Swirl."  Second, our local casual sushi restaurant has surprisingly good fries.

                            Just the one thing: yearly energy bill came in… They're re-imbursing me 407€... All the wine and beer we bought was free (and then some)...

                            More wine and more beer shall be purchased... All simple economics...

                                  I moved out of my flat in London last week, and it was pretty stressful.

                                  Off to Oz sometime in the next week. Just waiting for Yodel to find the package that they've misplaced in their delivery chain. (Hint: 24 hour delivery does not mean 120 hours and counting.)
