I have been sewing the buttons back onto my pants and reinforcing them as much as i can but they seem to be constantly breaking and falling off I know my fat stomach is not helping and me using force to close my pants ain't helping so I figured the next step is try get the buttons riveted on my work pants

for reference the pants are something like this just sewed into the pants but i am trying to find a tailor or way to rivet the button into the pants

anyone have any ideas?

I guess I don't mind travelling far if i have to get it done.. will probably need to do a few pants if i can find a good one

This may not be interesting to many, but I noticed this graffiti along the track near Coxs Cave/Fairy Bower which apparently says “Will […] Carlton Artist” and I wondered if anyone knew if it was historic or who this is/was. Google returns a 19th century American artist but I can’t find any reproductions of his signature to verify.

There is also graffiti that says “SUMMERHOFF” but that looks recent and not as interesting to me.

Turned up to our house on Clear View Pde.

Thanks!

We saw this in the Blue Mountains, but we haven’t been able to work out what it is. It looked like it was half moth/half caterpillar. Anyone have any ideas?
