Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

I'm curious what comes next for those royals. Please correct me if I am mistaken but isn't Charles ineligible to be king because he got divorced and the other guy is seen as a rapist?
 
I can tell a story about the queen. One thing she did do was loved animals, all gods creatures. Years ago when i was a kid i used to spend my school holidays on a family friends farm, that was my introduction to the Lambsfoot knife, { content }:rolleyes:. All the old farmers told me that animals were the best judges of character, they could sense a good person. Years ago i saw a documentary of the Queen attending a local country show, she was giving out ribbons to the winners of the equestrian events. She had to present the blue ribbon to a 13 year old girl, she starting asking the young girl about her horse as the kid was holding the reins, usual stuff, it's name and age, etc.. As the conversation was going on the horse stepped forward without any prompting and nuzzled it's head under her arm and she started to stroke it's head. I remember thinking at the time, you are a kind, gentle and good human being, the horse knew and wanted to be patted by her.

Condolences to Jack and our other Commonwealth members on the Queen's passing. She was undoubtedly a great lady and will be missed.

She was a very special lady. An end of an era indeed in so many ways.

I'm glad you had a good market day Jack. A very handsome sandwich the tool man was laying waste to. Glad you rescued Milo.

Another great video of the Mandarins John. I really love the special sound effects they do from time to time. Super cool.

Good morning Guardians,

I first learned of the passing of the British monarch here in this thread. Thank you for the thoughtful words my friends, I appreciate them, but no personal condolences are necessary. I was born a subject, by an accident of birth, just as others are born rulers in the same way, and I had no relationship with our former Queen beyond that. May we all get to die peacefully, in our 90's, warm, and with few worries, surrounded by family. It's certainly the end of an era, and today I wake up subject to a King, whom I had no more choice in choosing as my ruler, and who I think lacks many of the qualities of his mother. My best wishes to any of our members who do feel personally affected by these events. A photo which moved me was this one of an elderly lady, quietly mourning her deceased husband, alone because of the government Covid restrictions (while the leaders of that government were drunkenly partying, singing, and vomiting wine up the walls of 10 Downing Street).

Afternoon Guardians! Looks like you had a good time at the market Jack. 👍 See Tool Man had two Foot Print wrenches. I have one or two of them around here somewhere.

Thanks :) Well spotted! They're excellent tools I think, from a rare survivor of the Sheffield tool industry. A brief history of the firm here :thumbsup: Handsome Lamb my friend :) :thumbsup:

Thanks Dwight, that man can eat! :D Poor Milo, he's such a friendly dog, that could have ended very badly. I think his elderly owner might have been better getting a smaller and less athletic dog really, she's very old, and very frail. Fortunately, she has a good son, who lives with her :) That's another beautiful photo my friend :thumbsup:

Grumble Towers is in silence today, as I don't want the radio on. I was supposed to be meeting up with my best pal today, as I haven't seen him for a couple of weeks due to him taking his family on holiday, but he's had to work unfortunately :( Not sure what today will hold, but I'll have my Hartshead Barlow with me :) Take care Guardians, and have a good day :thumbsup:

I'm very pleased with the large framed map of Yorkshire that I acquired in the market last week :) Yorkshire looked very different in the early 17th century, with many of today's large towns and cities, mere villages, if that, while towns of historic significance, are minor towns or villages today. Sheffield (spelled in an early form, the town is named for the River Sheaf), is at the point of my Barlow :thumbsup:

Always great to see a prodigal son return my friend 🙂 That's a shame about your Charlie Lamb, but you have a nice Lambsfoot there 😎 Use it with joy in your heart! 😉👍
