It looks like 2023 has some catching up to do!!
Definitely Charlie!
Beautiful pictures, Jack, thanks for sharing. We also love checking out lighthouses in our travels.
I’ve been negligent in posting here, hope everyone had a great holidays and your new years are off to a good start.
Snakewood lamb with me today.
I miss the days before they were automated Jeremy, though I imagine many lighthouse keepers do not!

Have you read any of Bella Bathurst's books (possibly a TV series on lighthouses too)? Your Damascus Lamb looks great with that excellent mug!
Gotta get me some of them Czech Budweisers!
They're about a thousand times better than the other ones I think Vince!
Evening Guardians! 19 taking care of business today.

Looking good David
There sure are some fine ebony Waynorth lambs shown lately so I'll repost mine from the other day.

You take a beautiful photo Dwight
My A Wright & Son lamsfoot turned up at the start of the week. There are no doubt some issues with fit and finish and if I tried using the nail nick my nail would depart my finger. There was still a burr on the blade too, but I touched it up to hair shaving sharp and to be honest for 45 quid posted to Aus its a decent working knife and I'm happy with it.
The one true disappointment is that they have "made in sheffield" stamped on the blade but nothing about the brand.
Sorry to hear about the issues Jack, not uncommon unfortunately

If you flush out the joint with oil and canned air, you'll probably find a lot of muck comes out of it. You can find lots of other tips on bedding it in in the forum index, which is linked to from post #1 of this thread
Have a good one at the market Jack.

Try to keep Tool Man on the straight and narrow.
Thanks David, easier said than done!

He was telling me about emailing an online retailer, and having not received a reply. I asked him if he had checked his 'Spam' folder, which led to a very long, frustrating, and ultimately fruitless, conversation, as he not only had absolutely no idea what I was talking about, but refused to learn!

Good morning Guardians. Another warm day outside. Going to pick up some new chairs that we ordered for our sunroom; about a year ago! They finally came in. Got my Senator to help unpack them.

Enjoy the sunshine Bill
As wonderful as the Charlie lambs are, I had both and let them both go to new owners. RALF and I formed a bond which just could not be broken. He now shares pocket time with my new Benini stag custom, his rich cousin from overseas.
I wish I had a rich cousin overseas!
Hope you're having a good day at the market !
A good day, thanks, Steve
Good Morning Guardians
