I came across this picture of my first uke. It was plastic, with Jimmy Durante's face and signature on it. Shown with my first lambsfoot (a modern TEW).

I must apologize, Jack,I believe I posted yesterday quoting Saturday Sausage Sandwich. My bad.
They used to sell Stingo in the Bottle Shop on Stonegate in York. The last time I called in there though it had all gone three-quarters craft beers in cans, so I'm not sure if they do anymore. The Sam Smith's pub I go to in Chester sell Stingo but I think it's about £6? a bottle.
Great stag lambsfoot
Morning all.

Thanks,dc50 . Of course picture that was taken before I caught my head in that automatic rice-picking machine.
The handles are a synthetic that feels a bit like a charcoal briquette or pumice stone.

LOL!They call those handles Bexoid in Sheffield

I always intended to grind my own sausages, to avoid the gristle and bone chips you get from the store. But it would take forever, given my finickiness, and the exercise might drive me back to vegetarianism.
That is a truly epic mug.
And Happy Sunday to you! Here in the colonies, tomorrow is our second Sunday or "Summer Bank Holiday"--like you had last week! Love those knives, especially the staggie.Happy Sunday Guardians, hope you're all enjoying a great weekendPlenty to do in the house today, including some packaging, so I'll have these two with me, one to look at, and one for work!

Great mug! Saw a sign in San Antonio that said "KEEP CALM AND CARRY", a reference to firearms (legal to do here in Texas). A mug or sign or shirt that said "KEEP CALM AND CARRY A LAMBSFOOT" would be cool!They used to sell Stingo in the Bottle Shop on Stonegate in York.
