Incredible isn't it? I have the radio on when I'm at home, and read the British newspapers online every day, bizarre!I thought about his ordeal a lot yesterday. It's crazy that I didn't hear a peep about it. I know what Meaghan Markle had for breakfast but have no idea people are going through a terrible natural disaster. It is unfortunate really. I hope your current bug works itself out of you in short order. '19 is a wonderful looking knife. Hope your day was memorable Jack.
I'd never had it until a few years ago, as there are relatively few Vietnamese immigrants here, but I have been very impressed PaulCan't beat a nice bowl of pho.
I'm sure all your friends here are rooting for you buddySun is finally shining!!! Regular day of work for me today. Had my interview for promotion yesterday and felt I did well! At least I can say I made it interesting. I'm sure one of the candidates with more seniority will get it but you never know. Got the faithful IXL in the pocket today. I really like this knife. If they offered a carbon steel version of this knife it would be perfect.

Awesome lamb Bob. The covers are really nice. I think I favor a nice piece of wood over all other materials. Sorry to hear about the hip Bob. Hope your feeling better in short order my friend.
Ain't that the truth.

Looks tasty Jack. The grain in that lamb looks really cool.While I was in the market, I picked up a longstanding favourite of mine, Eccles cakes, and had one with my afternoon cuppaThey're quite an old-fashioned English pastry, which are less ubiquitous than than they once were. They're named for the town of Eccles, in a neighbouring northern county. I don't normally cut them in half, but I thought you might like a closer look

Thank you Jack. The word is chuffed.Thanks for trying HarveyIt sounds like it was made some years back, but it's a long time since Sheffield was using stag of that quality. It's character, and the matching between Mark and Pile sides, along with the EO notch point point to a bespoke piece IMHO. I reckon you have a one-off there my friend
Beautiful shot

It is horrific. I thought your words to Duncan was spot on.Good morning Guardians, horrific to hear what Duncan and his neighbours have been through! It's been a heck of a few years hasn't it?!Most of our disasters here, can't be blamed on Mother Nature
Hope your week is going OK Guardians, and that you have a good day
I still have this nasty cough and sore throat, but the former is intermittent. Carrying my '19 today, like our pal in New Zealand. Have a good day folks, and stay safe out there

What a nice bagpipe Lamb, John. Well imaged.

I ordered two of these from a young fella down under, the other is on it's way to my pal David. It was a tough choice between the two and in the end a coin toss decided which I kept.
Fit and finish is pretty good with a nice medium pull. I wasn't thrilled with the generic Sheffield tang stamp but it's growing on me. I'll probably ad a swedge like I have on all my others.
Pretty pleased with it !
I hope it lasts ToddThanks Jack, so far so good.
Enjoying some unseasonably warm weather, can’t complain about that!![]()
Brilliant!Thank you Jack. The word is chuffed.![]()
Thank you my friend, incredible how life can suddenly turn upside down, when you are least expecting itIt is horrific. I thought your words to Duncan was spot on.
Thanks again buddy, Charlie makes great coffeeWorth a thousand words, Jack.
You're very kind to meLife on the street. Your images and words go together brilliantly.
What a stunning photo Harvey, I didn't realise you had a Space Lamb, or perhaps I had forgotten!
Enjoy the cafe Ed!
It's always nice to see Old Toffee Wings Jer
It looks like you got a good 'un there Steve, great picsGood morning Guardians !
