Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

[Hatchet_Jack]

Yes, there are a lot on my street my friend, but the kids aren't interested in them anymore, and I wish the Victorians had planted SWEET chestnut trees, rather than HORSE chestnut trees! It is also my favourite season, but the past few years, it has been a very short one, as we have passed from summer into winter within a couple of weeks. I'm hoping it won't be like that this year

I’m oblivious to the chestnut world, are the horse ones inedible?

Wunderbar Jer

Absolutely gorgeous Bob Real sorry about your limited sense of taste

I hope you get a bit more buddy

Nice to see Roper Bill

Better than being back to elevator MUSIC! Great pic Pat

Good for you Pete

Hope you have a fantastic trip Bill

Thx Jack! I'll be off-line for three weeks. Be back home on October 5th.
Bill

Sorry Jack, yes, the horse chestnut fruit isn't edible, but school children used to gather them for a game called 'Conkers'. Now they have video games, so don'bother with them!

This year was actually the last Ted Do in Blackpool, the highlight of Tool Man's year,

I hope that loss won't be too traumatic.

I hope the Victorians weren't Ohio State fans. (Buckeyes)
One good thing about horse chestnuts, according to my late Uncle Don, is that carrying one in the pants pocket on the side that hurts is good against rheumatism.

I'll have to reinstitute my neighborhood walk and look for them.
And hickory nuts. I want to plant a few of those wind-fast wonders.
Heavens forfend I should buy one.

Complete Lambsfoot content. . Was slicing some stuff up today, and had forgotten how good a slicer my CC Lamb is. It is in the top 2 of my best slicers. We were completely spoilt with this release, Bill and Charlie are to be congratulated, just such an historic knife so well made. I remember the pandemonium when they dropped, in hindsight was very warranted. . And i may be highly compromised and biased, but the Jigged Bone was the finest out of all of the drops. .

One of the best !

Good morning Guardians, Barrett's fantastic giveaway has certainly livened the thread up, and I'm enjoying everyone's pics. Not that it was exactly sleeping before of course! My internet connection was bad last night, and it's the same this morning, I'm going to have to investigate that. Going to be mostly working from home today. I hope everyone is well, and having a good week Carrying the GL-24 again today Have a good one Guardians

Great picture Jack !

Good evening guardians, a wee drop of wine while cooking tea tonight

Big Dave reckons he has already sorted out an alternative for next year, but I think Tool Man and the Ted's are right in take his claims with a bucket of salt!

I was managing fine without my reading specs until I came into this dimly-lit Vietnamese restaurant!.

Leeds is a big university town, and so the influx of tens of thousands of young people in mid September is very noticeable. The returning students occupy about twice as much space as a normal person, and the new ones take up twice as much space again. Most of them are leaving home for the first time, and almost all of them seem to have never been in a supermarket, on a bus, in a big city, or in the company of so many other young people, before. And they have arrived with a whole hunk of change, just begging to be spent ASAP. So, the geeks spend heavily on comic books, the cool cats get their first tattoos, the fashionistas browse the High Street, and the hipsters stock up on beard oil and pipe tobacco. The Goths have to wear every item of Goth gear they'v3 purchased, all at once, and it's the same with every other sub-culture. And almost all of them are going to be drinking for the first time this week, and heavily. And I'm eating carrot cake in a coffee shop, and wishing I'd brought my ear-plugs, as well as my reading glasses

 

[Jack Black]

I thought the Leeds Independent Library had stopped putting their sign out, but they're just tucking it away a bit more

Jack, are you sure you're not Klingon? That Vietnamese dish looks like gagh.

I'm putting Roper back in the game this morning.

 

[Jack Black]

Thx Jack! I'll be off-line for three weeks. Be back home on October 5th.
Bill

I'm sure you'll have some tales to tell us my friend

I had to look that one up Jeff! The only Klingon I know is Tool Man, who will klingon to his wallet until his knuckles are white! Nice shot there

When I received notification of International Talk Like a Pirate Day, I was reminded of our absent ship-mate JohnDF , who first brought this bit of fun and nonsense here. So I'm sending him a message in a bottle

Such beautiful horn !

Thanks Steve, enjoy the season while you can, we all know what's coming next.

 

[Jack Black]

Thanks Steve, enjoy the season while you can, we a know what's coming next.

I think this might be the last day of it, but the past 3 days have seen nicer weather than we had in July!

What a great pic of yur GL-24

Great picture

Beautiful photo

Many thanks fellows!

Beautiful lamb José.

He returned from the annual Teddy Boy do in Blackpool, full of flu,

I wonder if that in any way hinders his appetite?

All this disturbance so early in the morning!!!!
I guess I will get a round of golf in before the much needed rain. Enjoy your day everyone.
