It has to be one of your shining achievements that bears your mark.

Thanks Jack

They used to be real favourites of mine Mitch, they sold them with the free milk when I first started infant school, came in various flavours! They weren't McVities then, and I can't remember the last time I saw Club biscuits, maybe they've been resurrected

interesting Jack, looking forward to trying them now.

Have a great day.

Jacob's Club! I'd forgotten how popular they were, and how heavily advertised! I think the most popular flavour was orange, but I always liked mint in a chocolate biscuit. They were an absolute staple of cafes, shops, school canteens, etc. My grandmother bought them, but my mother was always too stingy (she would buy Arrowroot biscuits!), and from the age of about 13, I almost completely stopped eating biscuits and chocolate for many years, which is why I'd almost forgotten about them. There were many other varieties over the years, including a plain chocolate version, called 'Golf' Hope you enjoy them Mitch

Anything with mint flavouring will be good.

A fine catch!

I got some stuff done yesterday, Wednesday being my weekend now. I got the yard-waste bin out just in time, Roundupped the banks of burrs, deer-repelled my preciouses, and bug-barriered the windows I'll open if it cools off. I'll lay down more bug barrier under the window I've been seeing ticks on. It overlooks a damp, shady nook.

And I dropped by the farm that I haven't been to this year because I was working on Wednesdays. It was like a homecoming. Same old crew, plus a new old guy and a new young woman. The new young woman turned off an irrigation faucet with her bare hands, after the grizzled veterans had agreed we needed some big pliers.
And there's a new Farm Club of four-foot tall children meeting in the farmhouse.
All very nice to see.

Wednesday is not a bad idea for a weekend Jer Farm sounds like a cool place to hang out My kids used to go to milk goats at a farm, after school, for years

Good Morning Guardians

Morning Guardians! Hope y'all have a great day! Beautiful spring day here. It's going to warm up this afternoon. Happy trails

Beautiful jigging David It's been up in the high 60's here this afternoon

Is that Rosemary surrounding your earthly Lamb, John?? Nice setting regardless!!!

Yes, yes it is... and Thanks!

I was thinking the same. Such a wonderful herb, and attractive too

I hope everyone is having a good day I didn't sleep well last night, so I was a bit tired this morning, but soon picked up. It's always better when the sun is out in the market, and most of the regulars passed by: Barry the Original Ted, Gravel, Slimline Scott, Harry Hotballs, Captain Birdseye, and a few others. Tool Man actually kept his shirt on, and is still, largely, avoiding cake, but he still wasn't going hungry! He said that his 'sandwich', made from an entire loaf of bread, was the biggest he's ever made! This is a third of it When Gravel asked what was in it, Tool Man said it was crammed with ham, he had got cheap, as it was going 'ram' ('ram' or 'rammy', meaning smelling pungent, or going off, a word brought over to Yorkshire by the Vikings)!





It's hard to believe that anyone could beat Tool Man for gluttony, but I reckon the, now, Slimline Scott could have eaten him under the table at one time. I've seen the intellectually-challenged lump eating, most frighteningly at Tool Man's wedding reception, and as long as someone else is paying, he'll keep scooping whatever is on offer, into his oversized mouth, with bulging eyes, and an over-active saliva gland. Having now become a shadow of his former self, he eats less, but has no more self-control, and as soon as he sees food, he is drawn towards it, like a zombie to human flesh, advancing to the point where he's standing on your toes, and drooling on them to boot, his eyes fixated on whatever you're eating. So, it was, when Gravel returned with several portions of mushroom and onion bhajis. While Tool Man ate 90% of them, Scott still had to elbow his way over



This conversation between Boring Ray and Scott must have been mind-numbing! At least, they're not boring anyone else



Here's Nobber Al, with his crew Tom, the guy on the left, is a cycle courier, and Wolfie was one of his couriers, 20 years ago. His business is almost finished though, and he's retiring next week.



Ex Para Steve has broken his ankle, but getting around OK with one of these modern 'casts' fitted.



This is the diminutive Wee Al, who is actually a really good magician It's a shame that his website no longer has a single trick video

Even Droogs need garden shears apparently



I wish I could have got a photo of Hip Hop Boy from the front, he must have been 70! Talk about Growing Old Disgracefully!



I haven't seen Grandfather Time in a while, but the sun brings people out



While snapping him, I also got a pic of Young Tool Man!



This old feller always has his basket of imitation flowers, but I've never seen him try to sell them, or give one away

How could "they" ever close that weekly entertainment down?
It's free !!!

 

[unclekurty]

Another entertaining market report. Thanks Jack. I hope Tool Man doesn’t get put off his feed with the “ram” ham. I guess the ham would have to be well rammed for that to be. Eating dangerously….it figures.

It shows you how tight-fisted he is doesn't it?! But what kind of butcher's shop sells suspect meat, whether it's cheap or not?!

I got some stuff done yesterday, Wednesday being my weekend now. I got the yard-waste bin out just in time, Roundupped the banks of burrs, deer-repelled my preciouses, and bug-barriered the windows I'll open if it cools off. I'll lay down more bug barrier under the window I've been seeing ticks on. It overlooks a damp, shady nook.

And I dropped by the farm that I haven't been to this year because I was working on Wednesdays. It was like a homecoming. Same old crew, plus a new old guy and a new young woman. The new young woman turned off an irrigation faucet with her bare hands, after the grizzled veterans had agreed we needed some big pliers.
And there's a new Farm Club of four-foot tall children meeting in the farmhouse.
All very nice to see.

Busy day you had.
Is the bug barrier a spray?
No fly screens on the windows? They are a necessity here.
Have a good day.

Spectracide Insect Barrier, it is a spray. Kills ticks on contact, even though they're arachnids, but is harmless to children and pets. I'm sure.
I thought I'd risk it though.
I do have screens, but one tick had crawled around the screen somehow, and was on the outside side of the glass. Grizzly death time.
