Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

cudgee said:
Good evening Guardians, hope you all have a good and safe weekend, especially those in England, re-opening everything does not sound like a good move to me, but what would i know. Had to get us back onto page one :) . With all the photos of the tools from Jack's mates tool stall, had these out to do some tinkering, and had to post. These are a throw back to past glory days when we actually made things. You cannot but these anymore, you can get the drill bits, but not made here. Did some color scheming with Charlie's Lambsfoot. Have a good one.:) .

Sorry Leon, I just noticed I managed to drop your quote 🙄 Thanks for getting us back onto page 1 mate, and also for the good wishes :) As for that other thing, you're just bringing far too much common sense and intelligence to the situation! 🤨😖😱 That's a cool pic my friend :) :thumbsup:

It's Yorkshire Day on August 1st, and I usually do a giveaway :) Just wondering if I can do one this year 🤔

In the unlikely event that you've never heard of Yorkshire Day, it's a bit like US Independence Day, but on a slightly smaller scale ;)

Looking at those 3 razor sharp minds, i am wondering who paid for the round. 🤣 🤣 🤣 ;)
 
Ok folks, I managed to find a prize for a Yorkshire Day giveaway. I didn't even know I had this one, it was still wrapped from the factory, probably from 3 or 4 years ago, got some nice Rosewood on it I think :)

Those Guardians who've been here a while will know that Yorkshire Day is celebrated throughout the world, and is the day when Yorkshire folk unlucky enough to have left this sun-kissed county, weep into their beer and pine for home, and where those of us blessed to live in God's Own County, whoop with joy, throw our flat-caps into the air, and sing our largely unintelligible anthem to the heavens, while downing a good Yorkshire-brewed pint! ;) I hope you'll help me celebrate, and while it isn't unique to Yorkshire, what could be better than a chip butty, or for the ambitious, a thick slab of Yorkshire pudding, smothered in rich gravy? :) This is a culinary challenge my friends, and I don't think there are going to be any losers here :D I'm posting this early, so you can look up your recipes, and get in the few provisions needed, but on Yorkshire Day, how about joining me in scoffing a chip butty or a plate of Yorkshire pud. The chip butty is certainly the easier dish to make, and maybe you can even get one made for you at a local eaterie. Yorkshire pudding is a bit of an art, and all I'll say is, MAKE SURE YOUR OVEN IS HOT! ;) Whichever option you decide to go for, a photo of the dish with your Lambsfoot is essential (if you don't have a Lambsfoot, you can post a selfie, but no non-Lamb knife content please). If you're lucky enough to already have a surfeit of Lambsfoot knives, you may nominate someone else for the prize :thumbsup:

Yorkshire Day is August 1st, next Sunday, and you have the whole of next weekend to make your entry. Good luck to everyone who enters, and I am looking forward to seeing your photos :) :thumbsup:

I’ve never eaten a chip bitty or Yorkshire pudding; this is going to be a real treat! What a fun giveaway, Jack!

Wonderful photos from your stroll Jack.:thumbsup: I really enjoy them. Some interesting pathways indeed - the wild life and old architecture are captivating.:) That pint looks pretty refreshing too. Your HHB pile side stag is gnarly!😁:thumbsup:

Not much of a cook (I'm a disaster in the kitcheno_O) I'm afraid so I guess I won't enter the give away but it's fun to hear about Yorkshire Day.:thumbsup: Looks to be a fine knife; best of luck to all the entrants.:thumbsup:

Sunday is shaping up nicely. Coming to completion of a hand rubbed finish on my gunstock.:) Working with Napier's London Oil and once I learned how to use it, was a pleasure. :thumbsup: This stuff is used by gunsmiths around the world on the finest rifles and shotguns and now I see why. My HHB has kept me company though out the process too!:thumbsup::DIMG_3051.JPG

Thanks for another generous Yorkshire Day GAW, Jack! I love these Porch traditions! :cool::thumbsup:🤓

Believe it or not, the news of your GAW had me googling "Yorkshire mathematicians", but somehow I got sidetracked and found this lovely ballad that I thought might help inspire Guardians to participate in the Yorkshire Day festivities.

Anybody can heat fries, and make a sandwich Bill! :D It might not be an authentic chip butty, but it'll get you in :) Or you could just go to your local cafe and ask them to make you one, what's the worst that can happen?! :eek: :D ;) :thumbsup:

I only came across that a couple of years ago myself Gary :D My dad supported the rival team, and nothing red was allowed in the house! :rolleyes: :D :thumbsup:

Thanks John :) I had to add a new one to my CV yesterday, getting thrown out of a church! :eek: I've mentioned the Harewood Estate before, a vast private estate built on money from slavery by generations of a ruthless and corrupt family (who still owned plantations in the Caribbean until 1975, and were still being compensated for having to give up their slaves until about 5 years ago). There are suspiciously few public rights of ways through their land, and while they suck up every grant and hand-out they can get, access is only allowed to most of the estate on payment of a fairly steep admission charge. I've visited the 14th century church many times, and have never seen another soul there, but it seems, contrary to what I'd always understood, that's owned too, and when I visited yesterday, a security guard told me that access is now only permitted to those paying an admission charge! :mad:
