Oh no and I just bought a senator!Just showing this one again. It's really grown on me; I may need another Lambs Foot or two down the road. I know that some don't like the Senator pattern but I do; specially after I smoothed it up some to suit me. I also like the barlow type patter such as the Hartshead etc but they are out of my budget at the moment ( and no longer for sale) ; maybe down the road though.
too
Thank you, Harvey.
Gorgeous stag and wonderful craftsmanship by Jeremy.
Some of us love the Senator.
Thank you John.Gorgeous stag and wonderful craftsmanship by Jeremy.
Great to hear.
That looks superb, thanks for sharing.You will like it. I found the bolster corners on mine a little too square for my liking but lightly radiusing them made it more pocketable.
Mine after rounding the corners. Done with files, abrasive papers of various grits, and a polish with autosol (similar to Flitz)
It makes for a great photo Dave
I remember Wilson very well from being a kid, in fact I watched him (unexpectedly) resign, live on TV. His later Baronry aside, he was a much more down to earth politician than the ones we have today. Holidays, for example, were an annual trip to the Scilly Islands, just off the British coast, where he liked to go walking and birdwatching, with his wife Mary. Now our prime ministers want to stay in the castle of a Russian Oligarch, or on a private island, of equally dubious ownership, every other week 
Fantastic John, that'll be an adventureThank you, Jack.
I'm looking forward to my first big train trip this Summer... to Omaha and Back.
I'll be headed out to Omaha for one son's graduation, and then heading back home for my other son's graduation.
It's a two day train trip out to Omaha, The longest I've ever been on a train before has been a couple of hours.
Do many folks travel long-distance on the trains anymore? I've travelled all over Europe on them, but a day and a half is probably about the longest I think. One of the old fellers who visits the tool stall was a train driver on steam trains. He's a very down-to-earth guy. Years later, his best friend died, and willed him his house. Brian and his missus had their own house, so they sold it. They were in their 70's at the time, with no kids, so they decided to go right across Russia on the Trans-Orient Express! I was looking at this yesterday, but think I might be getting a bit long in the tooth 
Wish I'd thought of it a few years ago Glad you're enjoying the pattern ScevaJust showing this one again. It's really grown on me; I may need another Lambs Foot or two down the road.

Because I subsidised them, the Hartshead Barlows were cheaper than the Senators sell at, I think A shame we don't see more of them Thanks Harvey!
Thank you my friend, that's on the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway not far from me. It often appears in movies. On Saturdays, they serve some nice local ales straight from the cask tooCheerssome fine shooting, Jack.

That's a great pic
Hope you had a nice time The weather here has really changed this past week, and it's been raining most of the time
That would be so much fun.
Me too John, I like to travel by boat when I can, but I've never been on a tall shipThat would be so much fun.
I'm a sucker for old ways of traveling.. seems like so much more fun and adventurous.
Perhaps even better than the destination itself.
Black and white picture makes that Charlie lamb look antique.
You’re absolutely welcome Harvey. I love the stag on that lamb.All Aboard! Sweet.
Love it,
Cheers
Killer B&W, John.

Thank you Jeremy, hopefully I'll be OK in a day or two
Jack when I caught it I lost some of my sense of taste and smell. I was using some renaissance wax when I noticed I couldn’t smell it. Then I took a few good whiffs right from the container. Darwin Award candidate in training evidently. My good sense is still questionable but sniffer and taste buds are chip butty approved now. Glad you’re on the mend. No sniffing ren wax for you.I made meatballs, but nothing tastes very pleasant at the moment
I'm glad it came back OK, I lost my sense of taste for 6 months once, and it was awful
I have a very strong sense of smell, which is not always a blessing!
Couldn't really taste it much unfortunately
