Marco is looking ready for another night out MitchI once got sandbagged into going to a pub, where I then found out I was to be the fourth member of the pub quiz team!
The guy who took me was a proper scoundrel! I've told the story before, but he, Raymond, had a huge shaggy German Shepherd called Flint. He was very good-natured, soft even, but his sheer size intimidated a lot of people. One of Raymond's tricks was to walk into a pub, pushing the door wide open as he entered, so it took a bit longer to swing back shut. Flint, who was never on a lead, and just ambled around, would walk in through the door after Raymond, with his huge tongue hanging out, and wander round the pub, taking up a lot of space, and sometimes knocking a stool over. Meanwhile Raymond was already at the bar, where the barman would invariably tell him he'd have to take the dog out. "Not my dog mate." Raymond would say, insisting that the dog must have just followed him in. Flint would be causing a stir in the pub, and Raymond would then negotiate a free pint if he could get rid of the beast. The barman would pass him the pint, which he'd already ordered anyway. Raymond would down the pint, turn on his heel, whistle for Flint, and the pair would be off to the next pub!

Thanks, from the 1980's. There were rumours that Raymond had once been tipped for greatness treading the boards, but that drink was his downfallGreat story![]()
Thanks BobNice flatcap Jack.
As a kid, I had a Johnson for cruising around our lake. Never gave me a problem. I sheered many propeller pins by running over things though.![]()
I hope not Bob!TEW today. Let's see if I get tetanus from the blade. I just cannot polish and older knife blade. It loses some of it's character.View attachment 3247088
