[Jack Black]

You mean like....Australia.

NO??!!!!

So is it 'Schoono' or 'Schoonie'?

Yeah, my dad worked in old money. Everything was a 'bob' or multiples thereof.

Yep!

Thanks Jack, just the tops around Dovestones resevoir east of Manchester. Out of Greenfield station which is the next stop after Marsden.

Beautiful David

Beautiful pics; an ideal winters walk. HHB and spider web look amazing.

Thanks a lot mate

Admiring your lambsfoot on chip butty duties I spied your coaster. Here it is hanging on a wall:

Cool pics

Anyway I hope everyone has a nice Sunday planned. Meanwhile...

...I'll be using the ironwood later to fettle another futile contraption to out fox my erstwhile opponent in
'The Battle of the Birdfeeder'

Great pics David, and good luck defeating those squirrels, they are certainly tenacious!

Looking good Jer

I got my sausage sammich

 

[JohnDF]

Looks Amazing!

Also looks amazing.
Hope you're enjoying your trip, Taylor.

Always a good day when you stop in for a visit, Vince.

Great picture of your Charlie Lamb, Jack.
I can never decide if I like the Ebony or Jigged Bone versions better... I'm just happy to have one.

I always enjy the pictures of your beautiful and historic country, David.

There ya go
Now I'm going to have to have one today.

 

[JohnDF]

Good Morning Guardians
I have more house hunting and football watching planned for today... I love the weekends.

Thanks John, I think the same every time you post a pic of your Ebony model I should carry mine more

There ya go

Ace! I hope you enjoy it John

Good luck my friend, great pic of your regular Lamb

I'm glad you understand, Jack.
The Ebony has a simple and sleek elegance to it.
But the Jigged Bone is Bold and Beautiful... makes for a tough choice.

Definitely John, a lot went into finding the right jigging pattern, and GEC did a superb job I think, but they also found some stellar ebony, which makes for a very clasdy-looking Lambsfoot

Looks very raw outside where your walk took you but very beautiful too. Great photo of your HHB staying warm by the fire.

Cheers Guardians

Another fine photo of your HHB keeping company with what looks to be a hand wrought bottle opener. Very interesting.


Guardians, I hope you all have a fine Sunday - here in coastal NC we are getting rain all day. As it continues to move northward I imagine this will turn to snow and ice. I really don't care if I ever see that white stuff around here. More indoor chores to keep me busy today and I'll be carrying my Bagpipe ebony Lambsfoot to help out.

Thank you very much for the kind words Bill Sorry to hear about the rotten weather I was surprised to see some golfers out here yesterday, with the visibility so low. Great pic of your Bagpiper, and an interesting background

 

[bigfish64]

Nice to wake up to. Great shots and that pocket slip is great work.

Thanks. I agree the slip is fantastic, all credit goes to JohnDF , he’s the one that made it, I’m just lucky to own it.

Anyway I hope everyone has a nice Sunday planned. Meanwhile...

Love this shot.

I have more house hunting and football watching planned for today... I love the weekends.

Another home run of a shot John.

Another home run of a shot John.

Thank you, my friend.

I got my sausage sammich

The Guardians are eating well this weekend!

 

[Crazy Canuck]

Happy Sunday Guardians.

Jack's little Wasp keychain slingshot a few pages back made me want to share mine. Haven't banded it up and probably won't, but it's a fun addition to the keys.

LOL! Very cool Mike My trusty Scout is right in front of me, where I can grab it to see off pesky pigeons! Great to see your Charlie Lamb too buddy

Actually I've got to say when I was down under I found a lot, if not all pubs served pints. That was some years ago now so maybe things have changed.

Cool pics

I got my sausage sammich

Ha!! You can add clever, intelligent, cunning, devious, wiley, sneaky and a whatever else a thesaurus can provide to describe sqidges. They'd certainly have that sausage sammich off you if you turned your back.
I'm surprised humans ended up ruling the world, as they are, in comparison, remarkably stupid...

Love this shot.

Cheers! Froze me cahoolies off once the sun set.

I always enjy the pictures of your beautiful and historic country, David.

Cheers chaps. It's the Great Hall in Winchester, the Anglo-Saxon capital of England. It's actually a table and the myth is that it's the Round Table of Arthurian legend. King Henry VIII believed it to be so and used it for some Tudor propaganda in the 16th century, which is when the painting was done. As always modern science came along and ruined everything. Dendrochronology proves the table dates from the 14th.

I wish I could use one on the woodpeckers that like to drum on the siding. Unfortunately, that would be illegal, as they’re federally protected.

I love that and so wish it was real.

I won't tell if you won't! We have them drumming and drilling our cedar shakes. Believe me, I've been tempted.......
A visit with some good friends that don't get out much. The only fishing I'll be doing around here is of the ice variety....

That's what I would have thought mate I hope it's still the same

LOL! Yes indeed, I remember putting a simple bird feeder up on the tree in my front garden, many years ago. I walked back into the house, and the feeder was on the floor. I went to investigate, and in the space of about 3 minutes, it had been badly chewed, and then just ripped off the tree! I was thinking of getting another, but there are always squirrels in my garden, and apparently they're offering a Nobel prize for anyone who invents a truly squirrel-proof feeder! Some great videos online

Unfortunately, these past couple of weeks, the local squirrels have taken to foraging in my lazy idiot neighbour's over-filled bins, eating garbage, and littering my garden

And the day draws to a close...

Cheers David, I'm just tipping back one of Saltaire's finest myself I opened it with the same opener!

That must be extremely irritating Barrett
