Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

[birdsbeaks]

@Jack Black & @mitch13 - Thank you for the kind words and well wishes for Snowflake. I'll see if he feels up to posing with a lamb tomorrow, but you know how cats can be. A wise man once told me not to try to herd them. "Not in their nature" he said. I suppose that's one of the fundamental difference between cats and lambs.

This is the way to do it, every Saturday fund raisers can hire out bunnings bbq for sausage sizzle, at the end tells you how much has been raised, pretty impressive.

Interesting videos, Mitch. Inflation’s obviously been a real bummer lately, but at least in that case the money’s going to a good cause.

We’ll often end up at Costco on the weekend, and it’s hard to resist their $1.50 hot dog (with a drink!), but of course that money only goes to the cause of luring you into Costco to buy more stuff. It is a pretty good hot dog, though.

There was supposed to be a barbecue, but then it turned out it was vegetarian.

Vegetarian barbecue?!

When life gives you lemons, you patina your blade.

Cool looking shadow pattern, Bob. Don’t know that I’ve see that one before, is that another Cosimo?

Sorry I haven’t been on much the last few days, Guardians. Had kind of a busy weekend. I picked up a new tool chest/workbench that I’m going to use for knife storage. I’ve been looking for a new solution for a while now, having outgrown the old parts cabinet I was using. This one appealed to me because of its large number of shallow drawers, which will be perfect for knives, and it’s big enough that I don’t think I’ll accumulate enough knives to fill it any time soon.

Here’s a pic of one in the store, because the space around the one in my basement is a huge mess right now while I get it organized.

And here it is with Scout for scale (and she’s tall for her age).

The best part? It’ll have a dedicated Lambsfoot drawer (second drawer down on the right side of the divided drawers).

Hope y’all have a good week!

Yep inflation effects, a lot of footy clubs use it to raise funds.
Hot dog? Haven't tried 1 yet. Last week I did have a couple of pepperoni slices from Costco Although you folk are crazy, they are HUGE!

Great knife storage & yes Scout is tall for her age.

 

[Jack Black]

Same again

Nice Mitch

Yeah, they didn't mention that on the flyer! I've had vegetarian hotdogs and burgers that tasted OK, (had others that tasted awful too), but in this case, it wasn't even a burger, just a mushroom!

Great find Barrett I'm jealous! Nice to see Scout Fine pic of your Albers

Good morning Guardians, and so we start another week! I hope everyone had a great weekend, and that you have an easy week I think I might have a package arriving today, so I'm going to stay in to catch the postie. Then, if there's time, I want to go to the bank. Unity Lambsfoot today Have a good one Guardians

Thanks Jack
Package arriving going to use a net trap to catch the postie?
That's good you have a bank branch near you. Most have been closed & those that ate left close at 4pm, so you really have to plan.
Nice lamb!

Great idea for storage Barrett. I think Scout could sell alot of them for the store as cute as she is. I lined one like that for tools with waffled foam that comes in a role.

Yes, this is a Cosimo creation of bleached bone.

LOL! I'm afraid I'll have to go to the far end of town to go to the bank, they're closing branches here too Thanks mate

Good morning Guardians. Finally made it back from our trip. Got caught up in the “tech crash” and it took us a day and a half longer to get home than we planned, but we had a great trip! The place was a mess from storms when we were gone so I got up early and cleaned up and now I’m having some coffee and reuniting with CB. There was no way I was going to risk putting it in a checked bag…feels good to be home.

 

[pat9198]

I just sharpened up the ebony lamb, I'll be carrying it all week. Have a good week, Guardians!

 

[Jack Black]

Nice Unity lamb, is that Bex or Bone ?

It's Bex Steve I originally had a matching pair, but gifted one to one of our long lost Guardians

A seasoned campaigner, like yourself Jer

Glad you're back Todd A couple of friends have been travelling to and from Italy/Sicily over the past couple of days, but we were only affected by hours, rather than days (in one case, just one hour). Sorry you had the extra hassle buddy

I hope everyone is having a good day, I made it to the ban, and back OK. I know almost nothing about art, but saw a woman down the road wearing a T-shirt, with a print of Judith Beheading Holofernes by Artemisia Gentileschi earlier. Powerful image (Parental Advisory Warning!)

Great to have Sara back in Charlie's Cafe, not only is she competent, and able to count, but she speaks English!

Stunning photo my friend

Thanks buddy.

Very nice chameleon Dwight.

Thanks Bob.

Hi. Just after last posting to this thread, my GF noticed that one of our two cats wasn't looking very good (I'll spare you the truly disgusting details). After some home remedies and even more waiting and seeing, Snowflake ended up having to spend two nights at the vet in severe gastrointestinal distress and after his release, I ended up having to give a very smelly cat various medications every 8, 12, and 24 hours for the past week and a half. Pets aren't for the faint of heart.

In positive news, Snowflake is doing better and nothing calamitous has occurred in the past 48 hours or so. I'm thinking about putting up one of those signs:

Safety starts with YOU! There have been NO abject disasters at this facility in __ hours!

Something like that.

That is a beautiful old lambsfoot and a fine image! I'm glad Snowflake is improving.

Even the pile side is stunning

Thanks pal.

Great idea for knife storage Barrett. And room for boxes, record keeping, cleaning supplies...

Yes, this is a Cosimo creation of bleached bone.

Very cool Bob. How many shadow lambs has Cosimo made for you?

That's a couple of rough ole gals!!!

Thanks Jack. First world problems for sure.

I know what you mean. We were in the states but were often the only ones speaking English as a first language. Makes me feel a little silly that I don’t speak any other language.
