Randy, you are such a positive soul

Congratulations my friend, I'm really glad you're making progress, well done
Very interesting my friend, would you be kind enough to post a few more pics of it, along with any other info you have?
Fancy that

I've seen sticks of beeswax on sale in quite a few places lately, though with warmer weather coming (hopefully), they might be well advised to put them back in the store room
Thanks for the pics David, hope you had a smashing time
Congratulations, that's a very nice find, great pics too
No pun is too corny for me to stoop to GT

I'm afraid not, but there's some more info about the song here:

Lovely pic Chin
I can barely see my computer screen at the moment because of bright sunshine outside outside!

'Stag Bone' or 'Bone Stag' are older words for what we would call 'jigged bone' today, though it was specifically tooled and dyed to imitate stag. Sometimes it was just called 'Stag', with the real stuff called 'Genuine Stag' or 'Real Stag', so old catalogues can be confusing. There's also pressed stag (just to confuse things further)
Beautiful photo my friend
Cheers my friend, thank you very much

I was after a bottle of Sam Smith's Yorkshire Stingo yesterday, having never previously tried the heady brew, but I didn't manage to secure a bottle - even in this trendy ale shop in hippy Hebden Bridge
I had a pretty good birthday yesterday, headed over to Huddersfield and found a few pointies in the market. Then went for a great breakfast, snapped this pic of my AC with my coffee, while waiting for the feast to arrive
Also got to open a few presents of course
After Huddersfield, we headed through some spectacular scenery, over the moors to Hebden Bridge, and after beer and cake, we had another scenic trip to Haworth, and then to Keighley. I'll try to post more pics in the Pearl thread
Carrying my Black Prince today, shown here with one of my birthday cards
Hope everyone has a great Sunday, and thanks again for all your birthday wishes my dear friends
