That's a cracking card Jack...and an amusing 'senior' moment! ;p
Glad you were able to have a good get together with the family.
Happy B-Day Jack!!!! I hope you had a wonderful time with your family
Thanks a lot guys, I had a great day
Great cooking Pete

And great carving Mateo :thumbup:
Today, my knife (a Queen Workhorse Utility) hasnt done much, other than cut a baked potato. Yesterday however, was my birthday, and I had more fun with my knives, specifically my Bladeforums 2011 Easy-Open Jack, given to me by Duncan, and my Ka-bar Peanut, given to me by Pete.*
I used my EZO Jack to open some very nice presents, many of which were knife related. Ill post some pics of the actual knives themselves elsewhere.
Having decided to go over to the nearby town of Huddersfield with my girlfriend for the day, I decided that I was passing through two train stations on one of the busiest days in the sporting calendar (think soccer football

), Id be better just taking my Peanut with me.
First stop in Huddersfield was a great little coffee shop for a large coffee and a bagel with pate and olives, which the Peanut cut in half.
After picking up a few knives in the busy second-hand market (pics elsewhere), it was time for my first pint, while the Peanut looked on :thumbup:
Lunch came in the form of some traditional British pub fare, the chip butty (a sandwich made with fried potatoes or fries). Washed down with another pint. Unfortunately, taking these pics seemed to make the entire staff of the pub suspicious that we were food critics or health inspectors (think
Fawlty Towers)! If we had of been, theyd have got a great write-up!
I wasnt able to photograph all the wonderful beers sampled in the next two hostelries, but this is how it wound up, with a final beer and some antipasti before heading home for supper. Had a great day
