Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

[Crazy Canuck]

I just had my chip butty lunch, and I'm stuffed. Am I supposed to wait until Monday to post pictures?

Same here! Photos waiting until Monday, but did take a teaser photo

Interesting happenings over yonder.

Y’all got me looking at lambsfoots on the auction site. I’d never heard of it til I heard about it here.

So sorry Rachel, I just realised I missed this. I hope you enjoyed it! You can wait until Monday, or post pics now if you prefer

Thank you Jack. I would love to see and hear a clip of the Yorkshire Day weekend festivities. What a hoot!

I'm hoping there are some YT posts Harvey

It's a pattern that was barely known in the USA a few years ago. If you go to the start of this thread, you'll find more information (and please read post 1)

I did read post 1, and the whole first page for that matter. It’s an interesting pattern. Is it traditional to only have 1 blade? I seen a two blade model with pen secondary but let it go.

I ate my first chip butty and it was sublime. I used waffle cut and crinkle cut fries and wait for it…tater tot’s. It really didn’t need bacon. Picture on Monday.

Well done, I hope you noticed the link to the thread index (though it only covers part of the thread I'm afraid)? It is most commonly seen (most commonly by far) as a single blade knife, but is also seen with a pen secondary. Rarely, it is seen with other blades.

Glad you enjoyed it

You're posting some great pics John

Thank you, Jack.

Keep it simple keeps it beautiful.

Thank you, Harvey.

I like your Western rendition of a Chip Butty.

I went over to the nearby North Yorkshire town of Harrogate for a few hours earlier, and thought I'd share a few photos of the carnival there. It was dull and overcast, and very humid, but the rain didn't start until after the parade was over at least, and it was only very light for the first hour.

After watching the parade, and having a look round the park, I went for a pint and a burger...

The burger wasn't great, so I thought I'd better go elsewhere for coffee and cake

Hope everyone else is having a nice day

Looks like a fabulous and fun parade... Glad you got to go see it.

My wife and I ran over to the local "Taste of Britain" store to buy some brown sauce for our Yorkshire Day chip buttys. No Hendersons, unfortunately, so we went with HP Sauce, and consoled ourselves for the lack of Hendersons by picking up a few other tasty treats.

The lambsfoot pictured was along for the ride, not one of the treats from the store. (It would be pretty cool if they stocked lambsfoot knives, but I didn't see any.)

Good Morning Guardians

Didn’t have a roll, but did have a nice brioche hotdog bun. So here’s my American style chip butty. To my pleasant surprise, it was delish.

That lambsfoot is one beautiful knife Harvey. Great shots of it too.

Jack Black
Great celebration pics Jack! I love how folks over there take part in everything with passion. Very cool.


Have a great weekend all.

Afternoon Guardians, all this talk of Chip Butty's has got me hungry

Carrying the big Rosewood today

Well done Tyson, that's quite a haul my friend I recently sent 25 British chocolate bars over to the son of one of Guardians, but a rodent of some kind are it's way into the box, and having done so, ate much of the contents! I hope you and your wife enjoy your chip butties

There's only one way to satisfy the craving for a chip butty Steve! Great Lambsfoot choice

 

[SteveC]

I settled for a Pork chop and chips for tonight but I'll be trying my hand at a Chip Butty soon

 

[btb01]

Blimey mate, that's crazy! I'm glad you were OK

What a strange thing Barrett! Any idea how you may have contracted it?

It was bizarre, and I can’t say I’d recommend it. I got it from a mosquito bite. I even made the news — not by name, but because I was the first person in the county to get West Nile that year.

Looks like a lot of fun, Jack! Sorry about the disappointing burger. We recently went to eat at a place we hadn’t been since before the pandemic, and I was disappointed to find that the prices were higher (ok, that part was to be expected), the portions much smaller, and the same burger I had enjoyed there before had almost no flavor.

Nice haul, Tyson. My wife’s a big fan of the mint Aero.

While I was out running errands today, I stopped in at a store where I’d hoped to pick up a Dandelion & Burdock to enjoy with my chip butty on Monday. Unfortunately, it seems that Fentiman’s (the brand of D&B I’ve had here before) may no longer offer it in the US. The shop I was at had seemingly every other variety of beverage they make, but no Dandelion & Burdock, and it’s not listed on the US version of their website.

alas... some people win the lottery... others, against all odds...

Nice haul.

That stag!

Here's my original chip butty with tots... can't beat tots.
Oh ya, the burger was really goo too.

Thank you Dwight. Love the dark mood look of your JB Barlow image.

That looks like a feast Steve

That's rotten luck Barrett

Thanks mate, big pub chain, the food is never great TBH I am finding just the same here, with places I used to frequent regularly pre-Covid having hiked their prices up. That is one thing, but the quality of the food has often really gone downhill too, with smaller portions, and sometimes poor service too. It's so bad in Leeds, I'm struggling to find places for lunch, since a lot of restaurants don't open until late afternoon or early evening

That's very strange isn't it, maybe it wasn't a big seller compared to the more familiar products ? What a shame

I was wondering what the burger was for a minute, thinking it might be some other sort of potato dish!

Thanks, I love me some tots.

You have got me craving them now too! I need to stay focussed on chips though!

Good morning Guardians, I hope everyone is having a great weekend I'm grateful to those of you celebrating Yorkshire Day with me, and I hope that you're having fun It's still raining here - they say "Drought!" in London, and we get days of rain up north! My back continues to get better, I'm pleased to say, with only a small amount of pain and stiffness today. I think I'm going to have an easy day, but I do need to catch up with a few things I've not been able to do earlier in the week. I have remembered to unfurl my Yorkshire flag, and run it up on the porch though Thought I'd carry the Yorkshire Rose Have a great Sunday Guardians
