“To Market To Market.”

Congrats Bill. i love the look of that Senator.

Thanks Harvey. The Senator is a very nice sized Lambsfoot knife and very easy to carry in my jeans pocket. I'll need to get a slip for it because I know that I'll be carrying it often.

Good morning Guardians, another beautiful day here in southern coastal NC. Going out to play golf at a Scottish links style Course; Castle Bay. Very interesting course and very difficult.
I have my Jack Black SFO Ironwood today.

Have a good time at the Market, Jack.

Thanks a lot John, the weather has been absolutely rotten today, but we still had a good laugh

Yikes! Hang in there, Jack. At least you look well stocked for pie.

Thanks Greg, it's been pretty nasty, but not as bad as in Scotland, where they recorded gusts of over 101mph (at around 3000ft) last night We have lost an awful lot of trees this year, and it looks like the coming storm, which will affect the south more than us, will take a lot more

The Boy is back!

Hi Guardians, it's just coming up to 4.00pm here, and I haven't been back from the market long. It's been raining heavily for much of the day, with strong, cold winds. Not the best weather to be standing in the open, with just a tin roof overhead, but I had fun with the regulars, and managed to get in a Sausage and bacon sammich, and some cake! I better get on, and put my stuff away before Her Majesty is here! Hope everyone has had a good day

Glad you had a good day at the market Jack. We are traveling so I don’t have a Lambsfoot to post (it’s in my bag) but here are those pictures of my grandfather. In the bottom photo he is the one on the right in the white shirt, he was such a character, and to a young boy, he was larger than life.

Thanks Todd Wow, those are great pics my friend, and AMAZING fish No wonder he looks so happy! Wishing you a safe journey buddy

I found this odd thing in the market, an archaic sandwich toaster! They must have been making sandwiches for the fairy folk I think!

In the office working today. It’s a gorgeous sunny preview of Spring outside.

 

[JohnDF]

Okay, now I have to try a sausage sammich with bacon on it.

Beware the deadly flashing blade,

unless you want to end up shorter.

Yeah, I have Nessmuck's book too, and Bernard S Mason's (though not the edition from my boyhood unfortunately). The reprints are inexpensive, and the PDF versions are free to download

Cheers! I didn't know there was a PDF of Mason's book available.

Lovely colouring there Jose. Portugal is obviously seeing more sun than the UK.

but not as bad as in Scotland, where they recorded gusts of over 101mph (at around 3000ft) last night

Lucky no one lives at 3000ft then I always enjoy the weather hysteria with a storm were they start reporting the weather from places they never mention any other time of the year. Like the summit of Snowdon, Capel Curig, The Needles or Dunvegan Head so they can ramp up the weather hysteria. I always wonder why the don't report the weather from the summit of Ben Nevis in the middle of July, and from the suburban Cheshire plains in the middle of January instead of the other way round.

Wow. That's incredible. I hope it ends up being less bad than expected.

Speaking of places of altitude in Scotland, this has been my occasional bedtime reading lately.

The author sounds like she was an incredible adventurer in the Cairngorms. I've yet to see mention of knives, but I trust that she would've found a lambsfoot to be a useful companion.

Yes it is true, we are having a lot of sun and little rain. Thank you so much, David.

Showing my age. We had one of those at home when i was a kid. Most people had open fires back then. Over winter Sunday night tea{ dinner } was toasted sandwiches made with one of these. The introduction of mass produced square bread was their achilles heel and their downfall.

We had one of those in the basement, going back to our camping days. We had a gas stove, a big tent that attached to the tailgate of our Plymouth station wagon, a set of nesting black and white enamel pots, and a gas lantern with a mantle, I think. This gas being canned gas, not gasoline. We had some folding wood-and canvas army cots, too.
Mom and Dad got over the duty to camp fairly early. I vaguely remember the tent being pitched in the rain at or near Gettysburg. That was where Uncle Bill came by and said, "You don't want to stay here". And hey, he was right!
