Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Just put my Black Friday potato to good use, and made some leek and potato soup! 😋😆:thumbsup:

Nice bit of shopping Jeremy! :D :thumbsup:

I only realised, when I was looking for a link, that I had never seen a full episode, I don't think! :D Kinda weird! :D I thought por Tom Baker fans might enjoy the clip ;) :thumbsup:

😊:thumbsup:

Well done Tyson :) I was asleep :D Pile-side Sunday is a good idea :) :thumbsup:

I've never seen The Grinch! I only saw Bad Santa a few years ago! 🤣:thumbsup:

Good morning Guardians, thanks to Tyson and Mitch for keep the Good Ship Guardian afloat 🏅🥇I hope that everyone is having a great weekend :) After meeting up with Matt, and his family, in Charlie's for breakfast, we went into town, so the kids could see the Christmas lights, and had a look round one of the museums. They wanted to go shopping, so me and Matt sneaked off for a couple of pints. By chance, we bumped into Brother Tony, and his missus, Louise, so after Matt went off to catch up with his dad, I went for something to eat with Tony and Louise, and then for another couple of pints. It was cold all day here yesterday, but in the afternoon, it got noticeably colder, and I was near frozen by the time I got in! 🥶 I'm surprised I didn't wake up to snow! ⛄It's 32f right now, and I'm glad I have plenty to do in the house! ;) The weather-folks are forecasting snow for later in the week, but we'll see :rolleyes:

Good morning Guardians, rainy here today so no fireside photos, but here’s my soggy “Pile Side Sunday” shot. Like Rufus1949 Rufus1949 , I’ll be doing some Christmas decorating. We did the outside yesterday so it’s the inside today. No tree yet though, that should be delivered some time this week. 😎👍View attachment 2403797

I had my Afzelia Burl Albers with me. If we’re doing pile side pics today, here’s one from when I first got it.

I managed to get a few chores done in the house, and even got time for a bit of sharpening and fettling ;) I had a go at easing up the pull on this Burlap Micarta Lamb I picked up, thought I was getting there, but I'm going to have to go back to it :rolleyes: The edge is never going to be pretty, but at least it's sharp now :thumbsup:

Gave The Chieftain a strop too :)

Since I had my Hartshead Barlow in my pocket, I thought I'd give it a drop of oil and a quick tickle ;)

Down in the bottom of my fettling box, I found this old Joseph Rodgers Lambsfoot that some of you probably haven't seen...

Unfortunately...:eek:

You get to seem the dishing at least! :rolleyes: It'd be a candidate for a re-cover, but....

That Pen blade is pokey as a punch, so it comes in handy for poking inside a blade well sometimes. Shame though :( :thumbsup:

Really like that Micarta Lamb !

Very industrious Jer, I guess it pays to be organised with the kind of winters you have :eek: Most times when it snows here, it's barely worth the effort of clearing the path. I've done it in the past, only to find that the snow has all gone by the next day! :rolleyes:😖😆 Nice to see Big Rose :) :thumbsup:

I'm just having a break for a couple of pikelets ;) :thumbsup:

Little Debbie Christmas tree cakes were on sale yesterday. They're gone. Hostess cinnamon roles were on sale, too. Fortunately, they aren't very good, so I probably won't eat them all today.
Point being, I'm voluminous as well as industrious. Time again to eat less and exercise more, I fear.

Good morning Guardians !

It's been very lightly snowing here all morning. It's beginning to look like winter :)


Carrying the ancient Taylor today

Pile side Sunday 👍

Your TEW has some great character Steve, that blade has seen a lifetime of honest use :) Whereas my Rodgers has had a bad appointment with a Dremel! :rolleyes: (

There's some good stuff around at this time of year Jer! :D Unusually, I haven't had a mince pie yet, but I do like them 😋🤣:thumbsup:

A classic! :thumbsup:



Thanks, Bob. 🙂 I’ve got three different Grinches on my list. 😳😁 Personally I could do without the Jim Carrey one, but Eleanor likes it, so it makes the cut.



I’ve heard about that one, John, but I’ve never seen it. I’ve got a few on my list that fit that last statement. 🤣



You know, I never watched it until a few years back, but now it’s one of my favorites to watch every year. :thumbsup:



Yeah, they’ve all been good. I thought the last season was a bit odd, only because it seemed almost like a completely different show, but it was still good. The new season feels like it’s off to a good start.



🤣🤣🤣



Definitely. You’ll be spending Christmas morning on a beach before you know it! 😎



Hey, some of the best Christmas movies aren’t explicitly Christmas movies. 😉

(I was going to go with, “Now I have a Lambsfoot Ho-Ho-Ho,” but the image from that scene didn’t seem Porch appropriate.) 😁



😁:thumbsup::thumbsup:



Sounds like a pretty good day, Jack. We went over to some friends’ house last night. They have a daughter Eleanor’s age and another who’s a bit older, so all the girls got to play together while we had a few drinks and ate pizza. It had been flurrying on our way over, but it didn’t look like it would amount to much. By the time we left, though, there was a pretty good dusting on everything, and the roads were a getting slick in places. We passed one car who apparently took a roundabout too fast; it was up on the curb with its front wheel sticking out at an angle that looked like it was going to be expensive to fix. 😳

I had my Afzelia Burl Albers with me. If we’re doing pile side pics today, here’s one from when I first got it.

That's too bad that the blades were so butchered 😲



Thanks Jack !

It definitely was sharpened a lot but done properly. It's razor sharp with a nice convex edge.
