The man is a health hazard!Thank you Jack!
Looks like you and Charlie Lamb had a good day at the Market. Tool man has a six foot splatter zone when he's devouring his food.He may be cutting back during the week but makes up for it on Market Day.
You bet!! A long time coming, but a blade worthy of attention and use!!
Very nice David
I had to go back, and look Jeff, I hadn't noticed before! You are right. I was talking to Nobber Al, when I saw 3 traditionally-dressed Romanian women, with long, brightly-coloured, striped skirts. There were two women in their forties, I'd guess, and a teenager, who I guess was the daughter of one of them. I thought I'd take a photo of them, but by the time I pulled my camera out, as they were walking pretty briskly, they were a distance away, with one woman having moved away from the other two to look at a perfume stall, so I'm afraid that's all I could get. I wish I could set up a hide of some sort, because the wildlife in Leeds market takes some beating!

Nobber Al can be seen photo-bombing the pic below!
The old guy was carrying a large basket of what looked to be fake roses, but he wasn't trying to sell them, not in the market at least. I was standing next to one of the wooden boards, which are fixed onto the steel frames that make up the market stalls each morning. He pointed at the wooden board, and let out a loud maniacal laugh, as if it was the funniest thing he'd ever seen, then continued on his way
Brian is one of our oldest regulars, though we don't see him every week. He's very dapper, and is dressed differently every time he comes down, but he often wears a bowler hat. He's had quite an interesting life, and drove steam trains as a young man, but his favourite job was being a bin-man (a garbage collector), because he says he worked with a great set of blokes. His best pal, who was one of those blokes, died about 20 years ago, and left Brian his house. As a result, Brian, the Bradford bin-man, and his missus, travelled on the Trans-Siberian Express
Ideed!The man is a health hazard!
Thank you Jack!Very nice David

Atmosphere extraordinaire! What a fantastic watering hole.
Perhaps a tape-anaconda...

In the case of that particular pair, I can tell you Pete!Jack,
Where does Brian purchase his footwear? I need a set.
Tool Man asked him yesterday. Brian talks slowly, in quite a gruff voice, as if it is an effort for him to speak. So when Tool Man asked him where he got his shoes, it took about a minute for him to say, "Ten-nes-see"! I spent some time, looking for the photos I took on a previous visit, without success, I'm afraid, but I'm sure there will be some on their website Dwight
Perhaps a tape-anaconda...
Wonderful photo of that smashing Lambsfoot
I hope everyone has had a good week, and that you're looking forward to the weekend. It's pretty dull here at the moment, but I'm hoping the sun comes out later. Thought I'd slip some Ironwood in my pocket, and carry my '19 Have a good day Guardians 
In the case of that particular pair, I can tell you Pete!
You're supposed to use a bunch of styling gel and shape it into a top fin for a fauxhawk.
And that is what we call a skullet.
It's always good to see Rose Beast Jer!
I have two more extras from yesterday.
A lovely rendition Daniel, you did a great job
That does look interesting LOL!
I think you're probably right on the '93, but that's a very handsome IXL
Perfect Black Friday carryOnce more...
I called in at Charlie's for a coffee, and then headed to town. It was dull, and overcast when I set out, and supposed to stay like that all day, but by the time I got to town, it was hot, and I was feeling overdressed. I decided to buy a cheap T-shirt, and get changed, but I lucked into a nice linen shirt for £9 in a sale! I was just thinking about lunch, when I bumped into my mate, Matt's, missus, so we went for Thai. Matt is sweating away in the office today, so I think we're going for a pint later 
A fine cover on your lamb Jack.In the case of that particular pair, I can tell you Pete!
