Good morning Guardians, I hope everyone has had a good weekI made the mistake of opening a cold bottle New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc last night, and an hour letter I had drank it!
I then decided to open a bottle of Australian Cabernet Sauvignon, and drank that too
Strangely, I feel perfectly fine today
I'm not sure about work today, but I'm going to head to town in a bit, to buy a few provisions for the weekend. Thought I'd treat myself to another Double Lambsfoot Day
Have a great day everyone

Life got alittle easier today. After being bounced around several government agencies this past month, I received my military discharge papers.

I hope everyone is having a good dayI had coffee at Charlie's cafe, and then spent several hours in town, ticking off quite a few errands along the way, and doing some shopping. I also needed to go to the bank for a cheque, cheque books being a thing of the distant past here. A couple of the charities I give money to have no way to pay online strangely

You have some incredible old Lambs my friend
Wow, sure looks like it ChristianAre my eyes deceiving me or is this penknife sporting a lambsfoot blade? Can't remember seeing one of those before.

Thanks Kurt, I'm afraid it's been rather dull recently. Nice to hear what is happening your backyardGood Friday to you Guardians. Iβm enjoying some coffee with this lamb and a turkey. The cats are here too but are photo shy today. Butterball is 4 or 5 years old so heβs an elderly turkey. The first batch of turkey babies have arrived. Sadly the survival rate isnβt good for the little ones. I have noticed some turkey moms are pretty protective, some not so much. Well time to get out and do some errands. Nice market report Jack.

Really? I wondered if it would vary between our respective countries. I can't even remember the last time I used one, let alone wrote one myself. The number of brick and mortar banks is also diminishing rapidly here, it can be hard to find one. I have two banks, and both of them only have one branch in Leeds city centre. Lots of businesses, such as bars and coffee shops refuse to take cash!Thanks for reminding me of something delicious to eat Jack.

That's good to hear my friendAs for the barlow,I really like the heft of this handle Jack, it fits my hand well.
I actually need checks for my quarterly taxes to the federal government. Two businesses actually charge me more than the price of a stamp to make an online payment!!You have some incredible old Lambs my friend![]()

Thanks Kurt, I'm afraid it's been rather dull recently. Nice to hear what is happening your backyardDo the cats and turkeys get on OK? I used to have a friend who got a kitten and a young ferret at the same time, and they were very close, and kind of swapped mannerisms
Great shot there buddy, that's a really nice Lamb
