Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Afternoon Guardians! Boss riding shotgun today. 🤠

Looking good !


Great to see you here Bob, and with that wonderful shot of an outstanding knife :cool: :) :thumbsup:

Poor guy was back here again, at 8.30pm, with a couple of packages for my neighbour! :eek: :(:thumbsup:

Bummer !
Fantastic Steve :cool: :thumbsup:

Thanks buddy !

Thought I'd carry The Chieftain tomorrow ;) :thumbsup:




I'm going to join you with mine, I had it picked out already 👍
 
G'day Guardians, it's only just after 5.00pm here, but it feels like 7.00pm, the market always wears me out! It was raining when I left home, but brightened up nicely in the afternoon :)



Tool Man was his usual greedy self! :eek: After a light breakfast at home, by 8.30am, he had polished off a hefty sandwich, made from half a loaf of bread, and a fried breakfast. Someone had brought us down 4 very large slices of his wife's Victoria Sponge, and he immediately downed one of these, followed by another half (I had one piece, and didn't eat for the rest of the day). He then ate 4 custard doughnuts, some homemade 'cheese twists', and later, before I had left, around 2pm, he ate 4 small apple pies, and 2 medium-sized pork pies! 😳





I had to pick up a parcel on the way home, (my blood pressure machine), from a shop near Charlie's cafe. Hisham was in, together with his dad, and his older brother, who was visiting from Italy, so I had a cup of coffee with them. I found nice new potatoes in the market, so had them with some Lincolnshire sausages, fried onions, and mushrooms, peas, and brown gravy, along with a glass of a 13 year old Gran Reserva Rioja I bought on my Christmas hols 😋 Nap time I reckon ;) I hope everyone is having a good day :thumbsup:

Tool Man should start his own mukbang YouTube channel. He could probably make a bit of money letting people on the internet watch him stuff his face like he does. Of course, he might have to know how to right click, and know what YouTube is. 😉🤣

I’m currently sitting here in an airplane seat designed for people smaller than myself, flying over the Rocky Mountains towards Oregon.
 
Congrats Mitch. I hope you and the boss are enjoying the special day.🥂
Thanks Bob,
The boss is at work, we will get a Thai takeaway for dinner, Kristy's favorite. A traditional thing we've been doing since we first started out.
27 if you wondering how many.
 
Have only been on a couple times in the last few days. Life is busy right now. Work, kids, and everything else 😂. I’m at that age where half of my life consists of work and the other half sitting in a bleacher watching kids play sports 🤷. I have this fine smooth stag lamb for work tonight. Hope everyone had a great day.

Big Rose 🌹 sure is nice. Being Tool Man is a full time job.
Just peaking in to check on the commoraderie and classic cutlery.
Real dandy there!
Bonus pic of the day 👍


Lovely bone on that Lamb!

Good choice!
And looking good my friend :cool: :thumbsup:
Thanks!

Verah nice!
 
That is a sharp looking working edge on the Lamb. :thumbsup:
Thanks, Leon. Laid the edge back some to get it work slicey. Unfortunately the blade was not ground very true so the edge is a little wavy. Doesn’t bother me one bit. It works as it should. Strop brings it back to life in a jiffy.
 
Anniversary carry 😁
Happy Anniversary to you and Kristy, Mitch :) Here's something for you to twirl around the living room to :D :thumbsup:

LOL! :D :thumbsup:

I'm guessing you're off to the knife show Barrett? If that's the case, I hope you have a great time buddy :) I used to enjoy flying, but those small seats, and cramped cabins, certainly make it a lot less fun :rolleyes: Even though he had booked 2 seats, I felt sorry for the Yorkshire Grossberger that was on my flight back from Lanzarote at Christmas :eek: :thumbsup:


Actually, that guy was TWICE the size of Grossberger! :eek: 🤣 :thumbsup:

That's nice Mitch :) Congratulations on the milestone :) My mate Wolfie, and his missus, get Thai every Saturday night, they must have been doing it nearly 20 years! 🤣:thumbsup:

Hectic times my friend, but I think you will look back on them fondly one day :) That Lamb looks better and better, with the contrasting grey patina :cool: I hope you had an easy night at work buddy :) :thumbsup:
Big Rose 🌹 sure is nice. Being Tool Man is a full time job.
Thanks pal, it's not a job I'd apply for! :eek:🤣:thumbsup:

Good morning Guardians, I hope everyone has had a good week, and made it through to Friday in one piece. That $30 bottle of wine I had last night sure was a disappointment :( It's dull outside here, but the pavements are dry, which makes a change, recently. I need to run some errands today - like going back to the pharmacist, who didn't pack all my prescription 🤨 I'll definitely be calling in at Charlie's, for a coffee or two, on my way though ;)

A few times over the years, I've mentioned an old lady, who lived a few doors away. She had a strong Cockney accent, despite living here 70-odd years, and told me she was born in the Tower of London, as her dad was a Beefeater (the ceremonial guards there). She had a fall about a year ago, and ended up going to stay with her daughter. Family members used to call by, from time to time, to check on the house, and I'd always ask after her. I spotted her daughter and granddaughter, the other night, and they told me she had, sadly, passed away. I shared a few recollections, including the time she had me and the postman blushing with her language! :eek: But it seems that being born in the Tower of London was just a fantasy! :D Ah well...:D Opposite her, was Uri, who was born in a Latvian POW camp (I'm pretty sure THAT is true, at least). He grew up in the house, but is now selling it, as will happen with the old lady's house. These houses go for about a £1 Million, so the nature of my street is going to be changing, as it already has over the past 10 years.

Have a great day Guardians :) :thumbsup:
