A nice little gift arrived from

Jack Black Jack Black

today.



I call this sort of Knife with a,stainless blade,big grippy orange handle and lanyard loop a "boat knife"

In the old days I used to drill my knives and put a lanyard loop on them in case I was working over water.

As I get sea sick and so rarely went on boats/ships except ferries,after 30 years I stopped doing it. 😂

It arrived just at the right time though as I was going to the "Riverside cafe" which strangeley enough is by the riverside. 🤣🤣🤣


He also sent me this excellent Dunlop tryre lever,which is heavy duty (and though made in England) it may well be made using steel from the girders of the Forth bridge.




(I once went out with 4 Scottish lasses in Glasgow,they where drinking Irn bru and Vodka so did I to be social.
As I was the only Englishman in the pub and all the Scotsmen where drinking pints of heavy I got some daggers/looks (it was one of the less trendy parts of town).
But I was the one with lasses so I didnt care.😊)





It will make an excellent pry bar I can see a lot of uses for it.

While mucking around near the water I noticed it said the life buoys should be checked often.

Well I had a look and the rope was sun damaged and badly frayed so I called the number under the sign and reported the 2 of them.

Busy body or good citizen you decide....😇

Thanks again to Jack.
























LOL! :D Thanks for the great pics John, I hope those two come in handy :) :thumbsup:
 
I carried on had a coffee at the Riverside cafe in a nice patch of sun ☀️ I found.

Then I travelled further on "Down to the "waterline" which had receded so I could see the Thames path for the first time..:cool:

It was a quite a surprise to see "Bon Jovi" falling over on the jetty. 🤭






This song came to mind with some great finger picking licks.😍



Why do I like my Viper so much?

Thanks for another trek John.
Great knife with lots of character.👌

I would see Jon walking around the neighbor, but usually upright. In person, a real nice gent. Springsteen, not so much.
