Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

[screened porch]

by the time I got old folks would be retiring at 50

Except the robots will be doing all the work! There won't be anything to retire from!

Cool sleigh Jer, do you know how old it is? Looks like your Lambsfoot is in for a great ride

Thanks. I think it's genuinely old, but I don't know how old. I'll see if the new Kovel's price guide has anything on it.

Yes, if you remember Jer, back in the 60's, people naively thought that automation would lead to a world of increased leisure, rather than redundancies and unemployment My mother told me that when I grew up everyone would own their own helicopter!

Almost as if we thought a rising tide would lift all boats.

I remember being uneasy about the helicopters. I thought we had enough crashes travelling in two dimensions.

Yes indeed Jer

I see plenty of people who can't even WALK in a straight line!

Some years ago, on a wet and windy day in Fort William, in the Highlands of Scotland, I visited the small West Highland Museum. They were selling off a few old photos to raise money, and I bought the one below. I love the expressions on the men's faces, particularly the radge in the centre, who looks like he's eyeing up a tourist for a daein', or about to have a 'square go' with the main radge from the next village! They are in fact about to embark on the 1900 Ben Nevis Race

Nasty stuff, Ed. Almost pure alcohol with no taste. Try a good single malt from Scotland!

We have used Taaka vodka for cleaning and disinfecting. But of course I am teasing you a little.

My mate with the tool stall still gives out prices in 'old money'!

If we're showing old tools will show this old made in England wrench. When i was growing up the local councils used to have hard rubbish collections 4 times a year, you could put rubbish and junk out on the nature strip and council trucks would come along and remove it. It was heaven for us kids, we would ride around towing trailers on our bikes or pulling billy carts and grab what we could use, anything we thought we could find a use for, and any old toys or bikes were just gold. I remember one collection as me and my brothers and dad were walking from the back shed with stuff, people had already taken half the stuff we had already put out there, and old scroungers would drive around after dark sorting through the piles of rubbish. Now you get 2 a year and have to book, but people who do not want to waste one of their 2 bookings just wait till it's dark and dump their rubbish on your heap. My neighbors who used to live opposite me saw there pile multiply about 5 fold a few years ago till i set them straight, i told them don't give people a heads up. They started putting their rubbish out days before it was due to be picked up, i told them wait till the night before. Anyway last week was out having my early morning walk and found a pile of rubbish, it had some books and had a look through looking for something interesting, zilch, but spotted some things sticking out from the bottom of the heap, gold,-tools. Now what bloke can resist tools, ya can never have too many, i found this English made wrench and some spanners made in Japan. Now all you geniuses out there, can you tell me about Japanese tools, i know nothing about them, but they look like really good quality. Any way hope you all have a good weekend, and enjoy lockdown those in the " Olde Dart ".
