Thanks, it was absolutely delicious.
Thank you, Dennis.
I'm very jealous. Our forests, and thus our rivers, are closed for a while longer due to all the fires.

I hate to hear that, John! Hope things recover quickly! You can always come out our direction, not much trout, but some great bass and walleye!

That is the book. I tried the Italian displacement moves in a meet. It was not successful. I went back to the French moves (Epee)

Thanks Dennis. Wish I could say it was for chili relleno but it’s just a regular green pepper from the neighbor’s garden and it went in a salad. Nothing too exciting. Betty sure is looking good though.A real dandy looker, Todd!
I like the energy, what is the pepper going to be? (I'm in the mood for a chili relleno!🌶

I'll just say Military Intelligence and leave it at that.Looks like an Ace you have there, Jon!!
What's your MOS?
Hot dog for breakfast? You guys mustvbe hardcore!
It's always amazing to see what the mess hall can do with visiting Generals!
And the chow hall here is...lacking to say the least. Its run by the host country. Frankly I'd rather have an MRE anyday.
It's pouring rain here so I'll grab a picture later, but carrying the same lambsfoot as usually.

Sounds like you got swamped Tyson, I know how that can happen!I'm finding it useful! It's interesting, in the week or so before and after the lambsfoot arrived, about five other new knives arrived, too. (I am not a collector - I have a relatively small number of users, so six new knives all at once is unheard of for me.) So it hasn't been put through it's paces as thoroughly as I would usually have done for a new knife, but we'll get there. So far, I like it a lot! It's a convenient size for me - small enough to pair nicely with my GEC 97, but if it's the only knife I have with me I don't feel 'underknifed', either. I'm also a sucker for wood with distinct grain to it, so I really like the looks of this knife.
Last year I had started a thread asking about A. Wright & Son knives - I kept seeing pictures that looked good, and the Wright name caught my eye, too. But I'd never seen one in person. The end result of the feedback on that thread was that I sadly decided not to buy one of these - it seemed likely that I would be more disappointed than not. I don't know how representative this one is of the line as a whole, but I'm quite pleased with it. Thank you again for your generosity!
Here it's doing some work on the very last bunch of tomatoes from our garden this year:
I remember your thread, and all the negative comments must have caused you some disappointment. I'm glad you won the giveaway, because I think that knife is much better than you'd get from Wright's/a UK dealer. Some folks get lucky, but most don't I'm afraid 
Thanks for giving your first impressions of the Lambsfoot pattern, and I hope it continues to grow on you 
Such a cool hat there!

very kindly sent me one a while back I'm afraid that my own knowledge of European historical martial arts is very limited, I first came across single-stick while studying for a degree (Leisure Studies), which included a lot of English history. I've read little else about it since then, but I do enjoy watching a couple of YouTube channels, which by chance, are run by two brothers-in-law. They cover different subjects, but are both interesting I think Thanks for asking
That knife has very much a Sheepsfoot blade I think, and the lack of a taper is part of that That's good to hear my friend, I would certainly love to have a closer look at that Lambsfoot knifeDoing ok for an old broken grunt! Thanks Jack!
That is a cool photo of Mallory's knife and goggles.
I've read a number of books about Mallory, but I'm afraid the knife barely gets a mention Obviously, a minor detail in a short, but fascinating life, but I'm glad he chose a Lambsfoot 
Thanks DennisA very cool heritage Lambsfoot, Jack!
Thanks again buddy, that's reassuring
I'll give him a ring later to see how he's doing. The market was busy yesterday, so he'll be gutted, he didn't make any 'brass'! Looks like it has gone through some battles itself!
I appreciate your kind words pal, Betty is looking good, as alwaysLike a pair of your favorite shoes, always fits perfect! Looks good, Jack!
Betty again, of course!

Sorry to hear that John, I hope you can get back to the water soon
Hope the sun comes out for you Jon
Good morning, I went out with my mate, but it was a bit close to his boxing for a full breakfast, so we just had coffee and cake. Great selection of cakes though. I couldn't decide between the apple pie or the cheesecake. The waitress suggested might be better for breakfast, and I said I was going to have that, but I really loved cheesecake, and might come back for a piece to takeaway. The apple pie was absolutely fantastic, and the waitress gifted me some cheesecake to take with me
Made my day, and hers, she said 
Back at my desk now, and the sun is so bright outside, I'm struggling to see the screen. Maybe I should try and find something to do outdoors
Have a good Friday Guardians, and I hope you're looking forward to the weekend

I don't think I have the elbows for tennis anymore I'm afraid, and I certainly never had the skill! Cool pic of your 2018 Ebony my friend

Thank you. I never played tennis, fortunately. My knees are delicate enough as it is.
I bought a book on tennis when I was in Japan, Kathleen looked so fine in her tennis attire.

Me neither Jer, bit of a posh boys' sport here!Thank you. I never played tennis, fortunately. My knees are delicate enough as it is.

I think I might have held a racket 3 or 4 times in total And, I should have also mentioned my knees! Another great pic though, and that sounds like a worthwhile tome

Wow, that tennis racket is a blast from the past! Jimmy Connors made that model famous. The Lambsfoot knife is very nice.Thank you. I never played tennis, fortunately. My knees are delicate enough as it is.

Thanks Bill, I had some sourdough toast first thing this morning, so I think I've pretty much ticked all the food group boxes today!
Have a great day my friend, and enjoy carrying that good-looking '19

I like that it's all steel.
Jimmy Connors! Tennis sure was hot back then. I mean it was very popular, not that I was attracted to Jimmy Connors.

Thank you Dennis! I love that little strand of light brown running through your knife.Doing ok for an old broken grunt! Thanks Jack!

A very cool heritage Lambsfoot, Jack!
Great photography there!
Sorry to hear your mate caught it, Jack. Hopefully he had the vaccines, I think that really does help so it's not so severe. We know 2 or 3 elderly couples catch it, and they were better in 3-4 days.
Lol!
A real dandy looker, Todd!
I like the energy, what is the pepper going to be? (I'm in the mood for a chili relleno!
A great looking pair for a double-lamb-day Joshua!
But your Jedi-Lamb pulls it through the dark side!
Looks like an Ace you have there, Jon!!
What's your MOS?
Looks like it has gone through some battles itself!
Great looking horn on your Big'un!
Nice setting!
All you need is a hammock and a margarita!
Another great photo, Dylan! Good company indeed, (though I don't smoke.)
Hot dog for breakfast? You guys mustvbe hardcore!

Love that honey horn, José, always a treat to see!
Hope you had a great day, Bill!! Your covers on your HHB are awsome!
Great looking Lambsfoot!
Welcome to the Guardians!
Nice photo, José!
Hope you get things sorted out, Leon!
You stay safe as well!! See you soon!
Nice, John, on both accounts!!
Fall is here, cooler weather coming! Putting some new line on my rods!!
Dang Jer, you're as bad off as me, hurting something every time I turn around!!
Betty again, of course!
