        That’s awful @marco23d . How long have you been waiting for them to turn around her passport?

          @sabergirl since February. we sent it in due to name change. if we knew it would be like this we would've not done it and traveled with name change documents. we inquired about cancelling her application but they stated that route takes a couple of weeks getting your old passport back

            @sabergirl it was an emotional rollercoaster of a week. multiple calls on hold for hours. we leave tomorrow. my wife drove to LA without an appointment and they denied her entry to the agency. she called me to cancel our flight and i asked her to call the agency one last time. she did and got an appointment in san diego and they're printing her passport today. can't believe it!

              What a horrible chain of events for it to finally work out. Congratulations and enjoy the honeymoon!! Might need an extra bottle or two to celebrate.

                    Dude, @marco23d what a saga! I’m sooo glad that you were able to get it worked out. I hope that your honeymoon is nothing but smooth sailing after this.

                              Hi one of my kids while adolescents wanted to see how sharp my knife was and did this is there a way of glueing or repairing it. Just a tad pissed off.

                                @Gammaman there is a special leather glue. If you glue leather you have to use a glue that’s very flexible. Otherwise ask a cobbler for any tip since they are leatherworkers.

                                        @Gammaman I’m tagging @seawolf who is an established leather worker for advice on this. He has made quite a few belts and other items for people on this forum and would have some great info for your question.

                                        Also, is the damage to the wallet or to something else? I can’t tell from your picture.

                                            @Gammaman That’s not my cup of tea…

                                            Some wallet’s have a strap that hold the wallet from opening in case it falls out when you’re riding. In this case I couldn’t tell if it was the strap attaching the wallet to the belt or if it was a strap to keep the wallet closed.

                                            If it was either, an option would be to replace them if possible. If it was to the wallet itself the repair could/would be much more difficult.
