It was fellers, wish you could have been thereSounds like a lot of fun Jack!
Great stuff Todd, sounds like you're having a fantastic timeGood morning Guardians. Yesterday was our skiing day. Happy to report no broken bones.Today we’ll do a little shopping
and then a little exploring. I’m sure we’ll end up in a brewery or winery.
Thank you Harvey, I'll try to remember to take a few my friend
Stellar stag Harvey, and a great picGood Morning Guardians
I wonder if we'll ever find out more about that one? Hope everyone is having a good day
First time I have actually managed to get in the door of the Ukrainian Centre, and it's a beautiful old building inside, as well as out, very dated, as it was clearly fitted out by a much earlier generation of Ukrainians. Not a particularly welcoming, or accessible place I'm afraid, and only open for a few hours a week. I had a short, but interesting conversation with the elderly Yorkshire-Ukrainian barkeeper, who keeps the place going, having inherited the position from his dad. I'm not sure if he inherited his stoicism, but it is very typically Yorkshire - The war: "It is what it is." Rebuilding Ukraine: "It'll give 'em something to do." An exhibition of paintings produced by wounded Ukrainian soldiers: "They are what they are." I did sit in on the "speaking event" for a while, but it was conducted entirely in Ukrainian. I left a donation, spent some money at the fundraising stall, and walked back home again. 
Time for tea

I hope all you fine folks are having a great Saturday. Quick plow of the driveway was all that was needed for what we had this morning. Think its going to turn out to be a nice day. I have a little studying to do for an Interview to move up a grade at work and then just relaxing with a good movie at the house. I think I will order in some food tonight. Got the trusty ebony lambsfoot in my pocket today.

Beautiful covers on that one.
Cool picture Bob. I hope the music was good. You will be back on the links in no time brother.
Hope it warms up some for you bill. Love that the HHB is always a consistent carry for you. Its a treasure.
Have a great day Jon. Rosewood is looking great!
Sound like you had a wonderful day Jack! I used to love to go to local bouts but haven't in a long time. Happy that you got to get into the Ukrainian centre and thanks for the wonderful photos. HHB looking fantastic as usual.Hope it warms up again soon Bob, that's some superb jigged bone
Sounds like a good day to stay in with your Hartshead Barlow Bill
Good AFTERNOON Guardians, Blimey, took me more than an hour and a half to catch up!I had a very good night last night
After that me and my pal went to the pub for something to eat, and were joined by his missus and kids, which were nice. They all had pizzas, while I had a 'Beyond Burger' with fries and onion rings. Have to say, the burger was a very realistic replacement for meat. Not sure it's any healthier!
Me and my mate had our first pint, and then headed off to the boxing, where we were joined by a lot of old friends. The beer flowed readily, and the boxing was good. They were only 3 round contests, but there some very spirited fighters, with good skills. My friend was second on the card, and I have to say that, unlike the rest, the first 2 fights looked to be mis-matches. My pal is 45, but very fit, while his younger opponent looked to be a bit on the flabby side. After a scrappy few minutes, in which my mate quickly got the upper hand, he told me he backed off a little, because he felt bad for his friends who'd paid £25 for a ticket, but as his opponent rallied, he got stuck back in. Soon after, he dropped the lad with a devastating punch to the liver, and while he regained his feet, he didn't recover. After another battering, he was knocked out, and I have to say, it looked to me like he was glad to hit the canvas!
The other nine fights were much better, and it was a good evening, with a great, atmosphere, very friendly despite the central pugilism. After the boxing ended at 11.00pm, my friends who'd travelled to Leeds, wanted to carry on drinking, so I took them to a local pub, where we stayed until after 1.30am. A few then went back to their hotels, others went into the city centre to carry on boozing, while I walked home.
When my alarm went off this morning, I turned it back off, and then had a lie-in like I've not had since I was a teenager! When I woke up, I literally jumped out of bed, worried that I was going to be shouted at!I've only had some toast so far today, but I'm going to head down to Charlie's soon I think, and then to an event at the Ukrainian Community Centre. Hope you're all having a great day Guardians
Glad you made it off the slopes in one piece Todd. Enjoy your day my friend.Good morning Guardians. Yesterday was our skiing day. Happy to report no broken bones.
That lamb and picture are really awesome. Your picture taking skills are really good. Stag is amazing on that example. Have a nice day Harvey.Good Morning Guardians

I haven't been to many, but that was the best I've been to, very well-organised, good fighters, two title bouts, and beer! I'm grateful for your kind words my friend
