Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Hello all. Hanging in there. Tough week.

Fortunately I have two weekends in the next two weeks. 😂

Sorry to hear about your week Pete, I hope that you have a smashing weekend :) Great pic, it looks like you have a wonderful arrowhead collection :cool: :thumbsup:
Fantastic colours Dwight, that's a beautiful Lamb :cool: :) :thumbsup:
Good evening Guardians, I’ll be flipping channels tonight. 😎👍View attachment 1971241
Good luck to your teams Todd :) :thumbsup:
Great Black Friday choice Steve :) :thumbsup:
Walk over to the RR tracks to try a get a pic of the SKOL that's been going by west bound at around 6:30 last couple evenings. It was a no show this evening.

They're still cool pics Steve :) It's rare here to be able to get close to railroad tracks, they are all located on generous swathes of private land, enclosed by high security fences, and patrolled by security companies, and the British Transport Police :eek:

Good morning Guardians, it sounds like Angry Waiter Angry Waiter has had a hard week :( I hope everyone else has fared better. I have worked for myself for the past 30 years, it's not always plain sailing, but I certainly have no regrets about it (these days I'm quietly coasting into semi-retirement) :) I've got a few things to do today, including doing some work, but I'm hoping I might be able to meet up with one of my pals, or at least get to Charlie's cafe ;) Have a good day everyone, and enjoy carrying your Lambsfoot knives :thumbsup:

Hope everyone is having a good day :) Mine has been pleasant so far. I got talking to a feller who was doing some work on the road where I live. He was telling me about being out shooting pigeons on some farmland recently, when the police turned up. Someone had reported him! The first copper had no more idea about the law than the informant, and became so aggressive that his colleague ordered him back to the car, before handling the situation more politely and tactfully (checking his gun license, and permission to shoot). Could have easily gone wrong though 🤨 After leaving the chap to his work, I called in at the doctors to chase up a prescription, and then walked down to Charlie's Cafe, where I bumped into an old friend :)

Primble Primble - Ironwood trigger warning! :D

I had to go into town for a few things, and was crossing the road when I spotted a delivery van for one of my favourite local small bakeries. The driver was just about to drop off some freshly-baked pies and sausage rolls at a nearby shop, so I went in and got one of each, a sausage roll for now, and a chicken pie for later ;)

Sounds like your day is off to a good start Jack. That sausage roll sure looks tasty !

Your pastries look delicious Jack. Very nice photo with the LF knife. I can feel for your hunter friend that was shooting pigeons. My brother and I used to be able to shoot doves in farm fields that were next to our back yard. No more, I'm afraid. It's gotten so bad for hunters because society has taken a dim view of hunting even when you eat what you harvest.

Good morning Guardians. Hope you are having a fine Friday and preparing for an even better weekend where you are. I'm going out for a stroll in the neighborhood this morning and then a workout at our fitness center.

Back with my HHB today.

Beautiful lamb and good eats Jack. 😎👍
 
Good morning, Guardians.

Hard to believe it's almost November. Soon I'll be choosing a new calendar:

In 2023, you can reuse calendars from 1933, 1939, 1950, 1961, 1967, 1978, 1989, 1995, 2006 and 2017

How do you figure that out? Or do you google it? But still, how would somebody else figure it out.

I need to have a calendar on the kitchen door since we always did at home. It was a big Currier and Ives calendar from the insurance agent.
I'm ready for the new year:

Thanks Bob, they are considered to be pests here, in the same classification as rats, and farmers are happy to get rid of them. That's a shame, it seems that some of the same people who are appalled by hunting are happy to buy factory-farmed meat from supermarkets :( When I go out with my slingshot, I only shoot at targets, but try to be discrete, in case some busy-body thinks I'm shooting wildlife, and calls the police :rolleyes:

That sounds like an industrious morning Bob, good for you :) Nice shot of your Hartshead Barlow :) :thumbsup:

I remember your calendar tip from last year Rachel :) I wish I'd thought of it some years back, it always seems a shame to throw calendars away. It looks like your Bagpipe Ebony Big 'Un has been seeing plenty of use, nice pic :) I'm sorted out for next year, thanks to Mr & Mrs Tyson A Wright Tyson A Wright :) :thumbsup:

Thanks a lot Todd, I've just had a few Turkish figs too ;) :thumbsup:
Now I’m hungry, but that’s good because Mrs. Bigfish and I are going to our favorite Mexican restaurant tonight…highlight of my day. 😉👍View attachment 1971576
That sounds great Todd, I hope you have a lovely time :) Cool pic there my friend :) I was just thinking, last night, I haven't been to my local Mexican restaurant in ages. It is only a small place, with no outdoor seating, so was closed for most of 2020, and some of 2021. I'm glad they've survived :) I should visit soon :thumbsup:

That looks cool Jer, I had a lighthouses calendar one year :) These days, I rarely write anything on it, but I do like having one, and it brightens up my kitchen wall :) :thumbsup:

I just google equivalent calendar for year____.
There are only 14 calendars: Seven days of the week that Jan 1st can fall on, times two for leap year or non leap year.

Nice!
 
Thanks Rachel, it has some great pics :) I was disappointed with the Slingshot World calendar I had last year, which had about 4 decent photos! :rolleyes: Even that was better than the Godfather calendar I got from the £ Shop about 15 years ago. Each month had the very same photo of Marlon Brando as Don Corleone, with a different filter/background :rolleyes: 😂 :thumbsup:

I looked for Scenic Upstate NY once, but Upstate wooded, watered hills and hollers look a lot like wooded, watered hills and hollers elsewhere.

Nice!
Thanks. I guess that's not so wizardrous.
I do scrawl on them, though.

Speaking of pastry, I was in the wrong place at the wrong time, so I'll be chopping potatoes at church this afternoon for the United Methodist Women's pasty sale. And me having missed the time for ordering them.

That is just cruel Jer, can't you just tell them that you are a long-time lurker?! :D ;) I hope they relent and furnish you with a pasty or two brother :) I was once recruited to do a load of cooking for a free food event in Barcelona. There were about 20 of us, and we worked really hard. I was really hungry, but then had to leave to pick up a friend from the airport, and never got a bite to eat! 😭
