Good call, my friend.I said I'd take it with me, and have it in the morning!
Same here Steve, the past few NYEs I've been in bed at midnight!That sounds like quite the party Jack. I would be needing an afternoon nap if I was up that late. I'm lucky if I can stay up to midnight on New Years Eve![]()
I wasn't sure how long the Cake Tasting Ceremony would last!Good call, my friend.![]()
Wow Jack, sounds like a long night! Afternoon nap may be the ticketβ¦Thanks Bob, my neighbour's neighbours parties are always interestingI'm far too old to be keeping those sort of hours though!
Me neither!I had been intending to leave about 12.30am, but had then been encouraged to stay for the cake cutting, which I'd assumed was imminent. My neighbour disappeared for some time, and it turned out he'd decided to get changed, and put on a suit! Then they had to sort out the Happy Birthday music, etc. It turned into quite a ceremony, with my neighbour taking about half an hour to carve the large cake, which featured a photo of him, and a lit firework, with the help of his daughter, and a large ham knife!
I was handed a piece on a paper plate, and folks seemed surprised when I said I'd take it with me, and have it in the morning!

Thank you Jack!Ethan is looking goodI see you got Geoff Tweedale's book, a great investment

For those with an interest in Sheffield knives, I don't think there is a better investment, and the 2nd edition is very good valueThank you Jack!Just got the book in the mail yesterday. I'm looking forward to delving into Tweedales book. Looked ar it a little bit last evening and went into overload from all the information.
Glad you survived the birthday party. I found out last night my brothers birthday dinner is this evening. Guess we're going to Wichita for steak. I can assure you I wont be up till 0200.

Party, party, party. Now onward toward recuperation.Good morning Guardians, I hope everyone is well, and having a good weekend. I'm a bit later checking in than usual today, as the birthday cake wasn't cut at my neighbour's birthday party until 2.00am!I had to speak my terrible French all night, but I did have some interesting conversations, including a couple about knives
I have a bunch of stuff to do in the house to do today, which I don't much feel like doing, but it needs to be done
Thought I'd carry this @jsdistin re-build today
Have a good day Guardians, and enjoy your Sunday

I am the same way Jack. After a work week, chores and honey-dos usually the last thing I want to do is go out. Itβs rare for us these days.It kind of was Pete!My regular party-going days are long over, I'd rather stay in!
I'm sure I'll feel fine tomorrow

We are going to see Bill Burr in a couple weeks with another couple. That will be fun.
Nice pic David

Gotcha. Yes it stands for βnot suitable for workβ. Iβll edit out the video just in case. Has adult themes and such.I always think I should go out to see more comedy Pete, I hope you enjoy the showI'm not sure what NSFW stands for, but if the video contains adult material, please bear in mind that some Guardians like to browse the thread with their children and grandchildren, and that is reflected in the forum guidelines
