One of the best Lambsfoot pictures I've seen... Great job, Dwight.
That is a very handsome Lamb.
I wish they'd go back to using their fists.
Disappointing for sure Jack.Sorry to hear about the wet weekend Bill, I can remember playing football and rugby in the driving rain, at school!It's always nice to see your Hartshead Barlow
I've just returned from town, where I had some errands to perform. There was a minute's silence to mark the first anniversary of the invasion of Ukraine, and I thought that the Corn Exchange, photos of which I posted the other day, would be a peaceful place to take part. I had a coffee, and a muffin, before the hour approached, but was then astonished when the awful lift music they were playing, continued, and the moment's silence was ignored
Just written to the local newspaper:
On Friday 24th February, at 11.00am, throughout the country, people stopped what they were doing, and fell silent, to mark the first anniversary of Russia’s brutal invasion of Ukraine. But not in Leeds Corn Exchange.
I had travelled into the city centre, specifically to take part in this event, a moment’s silence in solidarity with the Ukrainian people, and mistakenly thought that the Corn Exchange would be a peaceful place in which to observe it. How wrong I was.
I entered the building around 10.30am, and sat down for a coffee. At five minutes to the hour, I put my coat back on, and walked to the side of the building, in an area, which I thought suitable for a moment of quiet reflection. When the appropriate time came though, I was astonished when the soulless lift muzak, being played in the building, was not even reduced in volume. Shoppers loudly conversed, doors banged, the security guard stared at his phone, a waiter served drinks, a woman cackled loudly on the balcony above. I felt sickened.
The shoppers in the Corn Exchange may be forgiven for their ignorance of the event, but what about the management of the building? While thousands of Ukrainians are dead or displaced, with the country now having faced a year (and arguably more) of sustained barbaric assault, in Leeds Corn Exchange, it’s ‘Business as usual’!
Thanks John, it's been a good companion over the yearsThat is a very handsome Lamb.
Thought you'd like this! 
Yes, very sad Todd
If the Nazis had invaded, during WW2, I think my grandfather's generation would have given them Hell! Today, I'm not so sure Enjoy your day Todd
Hope you stay dry Bill. Lovely lamb as usual.Thanks Paul. Was a good round. Stayed overcast so we weren't getting overheated from the sun bearing down on us.
Good morning Guardians. Another sunny morning but rain will be moving into the area tonight and all day tomorrow. My son will be officiating a soccer tournament tomorrow and it looks like he will get soaked.

Very powerful message. It is crazy how fast the world can forget. Headline news for a few weeks and then hardly anything. I hope that message finds as many people as possible. You certainly have me thinking about it more than I normally would. Shocking and barbaric what Ukraine is going through right now and they need all the help they can get. Thank you for reminding me the significance of this day Jack. Wonderful lamb as usual buddy. Have a good one my friend.Sorry to hear about the wet weekend Bill, I can remember playing football and rugby in the driving rain, at school!

Hope you're enjoying the mini vacation, Todd. I'm sure you are gracefully flying down the slopes and knocking back as many cold ones as possible.
Thanks, You as well Jack.Nice choice Paul, hope you have a great day
Hope you're having a great time, my friend.
I never broke the law... I am the law!
Thanks Jack.Thanks John, it's been a good companion over the years
Yes, very sad Todd
Enjoy your day Todd
Beautiful handle on that one Paul.
More like knocking down the slopes and gracefully drinking beer!
We are, thanks John.Hope you're having a great time, my friend.
Sadly, history repeats itself with surprising regularity, and we still fail to learn from it
Thank you my friend I never broke the law... I am the law!
Sounds like you're looking forward to the weekend Pete
LOL!
Nothing boring about that Lambsfoot John A few years back, I replaced my morning toast with muesli, drastically cut down on carbs, and cut out sugar and booze. I lost 30lbs, but boy, it was miserable! 
Have a great Friday evening Guardians, I reckon I'm going to be out until late! 
Thank you, Todd.
I'd rather be "Fat and Happy"
Have fun and be safe.
Somebody got you on a diet, John?
You’re having an interesting day. Sorry that part of it was spoiled. Hope the rest of your day returns to good times.Good morning Guardians, I hope everyone has had a good week. It seems to have gone fast! I have a busy day today, I'm going to head into town to take part in the minute's silence to mark the anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and I'm hoping that I can even mail an overseas parcel at the post office. Then I have some stuff to do at home, before heading into town for a Ukrainian vigil and rally, and then heading back this way to go and watch my mate boxing, with some other friends. Probably going to be a boozy night! I'll be carrying an Old Friend with me, (except for the boxing). After coming across a lot of stinkers, this was the first well-made Lambsfoot I had from Wright's, which showed me that while they preferred to turn out cheap second-rate knives, they were at least capable of producing a good one. It's a contract knife for a British retailer, and the first I'd seen with ebony. Here it is with my Sunday Roast!
Hope you’re both having fun.
Breakfast and Lambfoot of champions.
At least it wasn't Soylent Green.Yes, I think many meat pies contain more soya than meat!
