Happy Birthday again, Jon. Glad you got to spend it with another Guardian.
Thank you! I definitely had a better day than some of our friends in Texas from the sounds of it. Hopefully everyone made out ok where the tornadoes hit
The colors are so cool.
Thanks Todd, yours isn't so bad, either.
That IS nice light ToddNice pic
Thanks guys, you know the phrase…even a blind squirrel…
Mexican train is such a fun game! We haven’t played it in a while, but always have a blast when we do.Good Morning Guardians
I have a small hike with the wife and the pup planned for this morning.
Later today we will meet some friends for Luncheon and Mexican Train.
I had a blast also, Jon. So nice to sit with a fellow knife nut and gab about knives. Looking forward to many more lunches with you, my friend. Happy birthday!View attachment 1772149
Hope everyone is having a good day. Finally had the chance to meet up with fellow guardian M mcc850 . Bonus is I got to nerd out talking about knives on my birthday. It was fitting that both of us had our lambfoots frombigfish64 so he could be there in spirit. Thanks Mark for lunch and I had a blast!
Shoot that weather!
That sounds pretty intense Pete, hope everyone is OK. Great pic by the way, a triumph in adversity Well remembered Gary
Wouldn't anything added to a sig line be applied retrospectively? I did a search on my phone, in the wee hours, and found a comment by Dave

close to the same date though (unfortunately, the search function isn't working currently, so I can't repeat it). I read back half a dozen pages, and couldn't find prior use, in discussion, mainly about the 2018 Guardians SFO, but if I get time, I'll have another look later. It was nice to read some of the old posts That sounds scary RachelReady to shoot that tornado, Tex?
I wasn't expecting to actually go sit in the closet (only room without windows in the house), but after watching that one cross I-35 about 10 miles to the north on live TV, I figured better safe than sorry.
Hope all our friends in Texas are OK Here, the only frightening thing about the weather is the thought of losing my hat! Glad you were prepared Pete, and that you're OK buddy
My storm plan calls for everything so I have a few tools to grab when we get into the safe space. Lucky for us we had sheeting rain. No hail or heavy wind. I am with you. Better safe than sorry. Glad you were okay.
*** we also only have some hall space without windows. Not like up North where you have a basement. Texas basement = solid Limestone
That rain does sound sheet! 
You're too modest Todd!Thanks guys, you know the phrase…even a blind squirrel…
I didn't sleep too well myself, but that was down to drinking too much coffee, and having too much to think about! 
We've had several days without rain here, so I imagine a sprinkler ban is already being discussed in the hallowed halls of the Yorkshire Parliament! Have a good day everyone, and stay safe out there 
It's always nice to see Old Toffee Wings Jer
Well, depending on the hat...That sounds scary Rachel
Well, depending on the hat...
It sounds like you are kind of used to them Rachel, I'm glad nobody is seriously hurt
Judging from that footage, I guess a lot of folks were glad to get home I reckon you're right there, the Big 'Un is a serious bladeFor Lambsfoot content, I think a Big-un would be best to have on hand for disaster prep. The only question is: Ebony or Rosewood?
Scary for sure, Rachel, and something you can never be too prepared for. On a lighter note, I don't think either choice of lamb would lead you astray.Well, depending on the hat...
There seems to be a lot of property damage up in the suburbs north of town, but I haven't heard of any major injuries/fatalities.
We get severe storm watches and warnings quite a bit in the Springtime. I felt a little silly, moving the laundry hamper out of the closet and putting a chair in there, then watched this live on the TV:

You too, Jack. Wishing the same for those in Texas.Have a good day everyone, and stay safe out there
I can feel the warmth of the Sun reflecting off this image, John.
Well that looks mighty fine.Having a pastrami sandwich for lunch
Thanks Harvey
Great that you're still managing to pic up those old Sheffield Lambs HarveyA newby C J Johnson
Thank you Jack. Hello my name is Harvey, and I have a vintage Lambfoot collecting addiction.Great that you're still managing to pic up those old Sheffield Lambs Harvey
It's been a while since I last had my Spydie sharpener out. Been giving my handmade kitchen knives a tickle, so I thought I'd touch up my Hartshead Barlow
Sharp looking sharpening image.
Answer, "Both".
LOL!Thank you Jack. Hello my name is Harvey, and I have a vintage Lambfoot collecting addiction.
In solidarity with our storm-tossed Texan friends, I thought I'd open a bottle of Yellowbird sauce, and fry up a couple of sausages to try it on 
Good stuff
Amen
'Old boiler' is also slang for your wife or a lady who is...'past her prime' shall we say...I've been reading about your boiler challenges for over a week (and hope that the most recent repair does the trick), but I'm not exactly sure I know what you mean by "boiler".When I hear "boiler", I usually think of a major component of a heating system pumps hot water through pipes to heat a building. I think they're quite common in schools and other "institutional buildings" in my area, but not very many private residences have hot water heating any more. So then I wonder if "boiler" is the term used in Yorkshire for what I call a "water heater", which is the tank used to heat water to be pumped to the hot water faucets in sinks, showers, bathtubs throughout the house.

Ahhh that's interesting to know GT. Their doing the same over here. My cousin's fiance is one of the lead engineers on the 5G roll out here in the UK. Deactivating the 3G is for no other reason than to make everyone buy new phones. They also want to deactivate 2G but apparently it's something to do with our national infrastructure.Sorry to hear about your phone problems, Jack.
I recently received a letter from my cell phone service provider informing me that they will be "retiring" all of their 3G service at the end of 2022, and that my trusty old unsmart flip phone will be unusable when that happens, so I need to replace it. Not looking forward to that.

I do regret not picking one of those up. They are particularly handsome knives.Good Morning Guardians.
My sister's first husband was a Kiwi. When he came over to the UK he didn't know what radiators were as they don't (or didn't) have them in NZ.
It's 5G, but we're only on 4G in my area
