By chance is the stockman a Tidioute 828318 with "Copperhead Jigged Bone" covers 😍?

I should carry mine more often ... even if it is irreplaceable should something bad happened ... like my pocket "found religion" and became holey ... 😇
 
I will leave you USA people to decide on this Dogs authenticity. 😁

Previous to a post of mine I still havent savoured a Chilli Dog,they werent on the menu,one day maybe.



















Otherwise it was a horrible,horrible, wet, damp in the air,dark,grey English day today.

If I was one of those people landing on our beaches in a dingy looking for the promised land, I would have got back on and gone back home again feeling cheated.😂

We joke about it,but these are not pleasent days,cold and snow is better.

On the way home I took the scenic route,the roads where flooded as where all the surrounding fields,its going to be a bad year for our farmers struggling all ready (I feel for them).

Sill I had a nice Cortado and a warm croissant and the girl even gave me butter for free,a small win.😆





Anyone I know?

My oldest bought me this car and it arrived today. Not my favorite driver, but certainly my favorite sponsor by a country mile (and he knew that).

😲 I had no clue you were a NASCAR fan!! Many years ago, when I lived with my uncle, we (he made me) tracked 🤦‍♂️ Dale Earnhardt religiously. That could explain why I still find myself going in circles?? 😵‍💫

Anyway... Who IS your favorite driver? I met Ty Gibbs a couple of months ago. He's a cool kid! 😎

There seem to be quite a few NASCAR fans on The Porch?? Interesting.

I have not seen a folding ruler in ages....timeless classic.

Thank you Bob, it's a carpenter's ruler with brass tips made in Sweden. I like it a lot and it's probably 1930s.

Good thing is, it has Metric & Imperial measures on the same scale. Now although I've lived in Britain I've never comprehended the fetish that British & Americans have for that outmoded, cumbersome measuring system ;) Then there's that Fahrenheit imbecility🤣 :rolleyes: worse still, I discover the British & American have different size gallons & pints, don't measure weight the same pounds/stones and maybe the mile and inch are even different ???:eek: Fancy Furlongs, Rods, Poles, Perches anybody??? OMG...I'm all in favour of different aspects to cultures but at least the Aussies, Kiwis, Canadians and Irish have abandoned that antique obstacle😍 Kind of ironic that America, the first colony to break away still clings to those Dark Ages superstitions still used by their former and much diminished colonial masters🤣

Joking apart, decent knives are always the measure of quality, whatever the units. :thumbsup:

I don't understand metrix
88KM is 55 miles, I know that ... don't know why metrix wants to make things and places farther apart ...
As for temps. I know (or at least in my opinion) 72 to 80 degrees Farenheit is comfortable. Not to "hot" not to cold.
32 degrees farenheit on the other foot, is litterally freezing, whereas 32 degrees Celsius is "hot". 🤨

By the way, "Port" and "Starboard" waterway navigational aids in the USA have differed from those in Brittan since 1776.
The change assisted the British Navy to lose more than a few ships during the two "Wars of Independance". (original and War of 1812, when the Brits unsuccessfuly attempted to reverse the results of the first.) 😁👍
