Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Thank you, Jack. The whiskey was superb, I really enjoyed it. American made single malts aren’t all that common (at least not where I’m at) - you kind of have to intentionally look for them. I got it in with a few other bottles, including this very fine Islay.

Looking good Ken :thumbsup:

Hope everyone is having a good Friday :) Pretty warm here today, and I've just been sat outside in the garden with my neighbours and their kids, but the kids are getting tired, and the mosquitoes are biting, so we've called it a day. It's nearly10 o'clock anyhow. Time for a dram I reckon ;) :thumbsup:

A fine Islay malt my friend along side a fine HHB in stag. Here's a recycled photo. One of my favorite Islay drams along side my HHB.

Thanks Bill, great pic :) Hope you're having a great weekend :) Certainly the hottest day of the year here, so far. I enjoyed going for a walk, and some slingshot practice, but it left me worn out! :D :thumbsup:

Yes Jack, the heat will really do you in. Here in NC the heat and humidity are oppressive. Really not suitable for Scotch; LOL. However, inside with air conditioning it is quite comfortable and conducive to a wee dram.
 
I've got a couple drams left of that Ardbeg "Oogie"...and most of a bottle of Laphroaig Quarter Cask.

But since it's so hot and humid here in western NC in the mountains, nobody was energetic enough to tell me that it wasn't appropriate weather for single malts.

Fortunately, we have bourbon and beer on hand. Those are always okay, apparently. 🥳

(Sorry, I sent my lambsfoot to Israel as a gift a few years ago.)

That's a great argument for air-conditioning Bill! I've been sat outside drinking a few beers with my neighbours. I only noticed it was almost midnight when I came in. We don't get too many days when you can sit outside in a short-sleeved shirt at that time here :thumbsup:

I'm afraid the only other photo I can find is this one, and the whole tool is 4-5 times bigger. Maybe I can get a pic next week :thumbsup:

And that seems like a good idea, Mike! Great shot!
Jack Black said:
I've had a bruising week, and didn't really feel up to having a full hike today, but hoping to get out for a shorter one later this morning. Probably just going to have a walk in some local woodland, maybe some catapult practice ;) Whatever you're doing, I hope you have a good one Guardians, have a great weekend :thumbsup:

Like you and others have mentioned, it's been unusually wet and humid here as well! But I really can't complain thinking about all the folks out west caught in the drought, low water levels and the fires as well. 😠😡 I do pray they'll get some relief!
Jack Black said:
Hoping our pal Charlie waynorth waynorth waynorth waynorth is doing OK after his hip op :thumbsup:

Nice! Great field for that purpose!
Well seeing all the slingshots you, Mike Crazy Canuck Crazy Canuck and Dan CelloDan CelloDan have and missing that fun from childhood, I broke down and bought one of the newer styles with flat bands, just need to attach the bands and get at it! Won't be a safe paper plate or aluminium can around! 🙄🤣 Got the Big'un helping me out with this task!
