I'd love a pair of Chestnut

After waiting a week today I got my RM Williams from Stitching Horse Bootery. I placed an order through them so I can have my size - 8H (H being Wide Toes). This is my second pair of RMW Comfort Craftsman and the first pair is still quite all right except that my right boot is a little loose because my right foot is; yes, shorter in length than my left. That's my logical conclusion. Also this time around I realized I bought size 9H for my first pair. As a result it has now become less fitting.
It has got to be black, of course. Although I'd have loved it to be Chestnut ....
Specs:-
  • Dress boots.
  • Yearling uppers, leather lined.
  • Sewn welt leather soles with flat heels.
  • Chisel square toes.
  • Black, Chestnut (dark brown), Dark Tan,
    Whiskey leather and Brown Suede
  • Mens 6-12 (US7-13)
  • Ladies Sizes: 3-8 (US6-11)
  • Medium (G) or Wide (H) Fittings
I sat down at Koutouki Cafe a few doors down and ordered a Souvlaki and a cup of Greek coffee. I got to have Souvlaki today ....

Saturday 14 Sep Big Sister invited all of us for a BBQ at Ruffy Lake Doncaster to get together with Victor and his family .....
Friday 27 Sept dinner at a Backbone Grill ....Greek sald, warm roasted potatoes, mixed rotisserie of chicken, lamb and beef
We could not finish our dinner so we asked for a "doggy bag" 狗仔包。The next couple of days my woman made wraps using the left overs together with lettuce, cucumber, mozzarella, mayo, whole grain mustards. Yum.

Korumburra

Today I drove 80km (one hour from my office) to Korumburra to make my first visit to Burra Foods. Korumburra is about 33 km NE of Wonthaggi and it is in my sales territory. Korumburra is 220m above mean sea level so it is common to see rolling hills and valleys in this part of Eastern Victoria. Although it's Spring time but today was over cast and showery. It was a nice drive in the country and I enjoyed a bit of reprieve away from my desk.

Wonthaggi II

Friday I made my tracks in the morning for Wonthaggi, again.Two weeks ago, I was on the desal plant site to resolve a stuff up - the forklift mast was too tall for the site conditions. After taking the forklift back to base and changing the mast to a suitable one I arranged to have the unit delivered to the site again a few days ago. Friday I was there to do the handover of the asset. And this time, all was well.

I could not resist stopping by Kilcundra again and look out to the Bass Straits. Beyond this lookout far away is Tassie. I also took a picture of the Kilcundra "town" which is effectively a row of shops and some houses nearby.
