- have a wonderful full-on day in Sheffield, Jack :thumbup: :thumbup: - sounds like you're going to have a blast..........and the weather's stunning today. Enjoy...
@Jack - have a good day out my friend, glad to see you have some trusty companions with you! :thumbup:
Thanks a lot gents, it was an excellent day, an enjoyable walk along the banks of the River Porter in superb weather, a visit to the old water-powered cutlery wheel I mentioned, with the wheel in spin, some delicious food, a couple of pints, and a really enjoyable production at the theatre (with lots of cutlery content)
We were only let down by the trains (substantial delays and 2 hours to cover 33 miles!), meaning we didn't get back in Leeds until 1.00am, a bit late for me these days
The stag on your 25 is mesmerising Paul :thumbup:
Jack I hope you are doing well pal, not sure if you'll remember but Olivia still has the little pig flashlight you sent many years ago, also I stopped purchaseing knives about 2 years ago, so I could enjoy my accumulated bounty, but I will say every time you show a lambsfoot my pulse quickens, one of these days I'll add a Real Lambsfoot to my collection.
Early morning wild blackberry harvest, I have to compete with all the other critters
Hey Pete, hope you're good my friend, and that life is still treating you well
I do remember, I also remember the cute picture of Olivia with it
I think a Lambsfoot might suit you, we'll have to look into that one. Nice crop of blackberries, I must go and check mine to see if they're out
:thumbup:
Viva L'Outrages! Sounds like a good show.
Rarebits reminds me of a Tudor-era joke: There were too many Welshmen getting into heaven, so St Peter went outside the gates and yelled "toasted cheese"! All the Welsh ran outside, and St Peter slammed the gates behind them.
what's dit up thy sight?
Woops, knife pic-
LOL! Not heard that one before
It was an excellent show, they even got some of the history right,.and it was nice to hear some of the songs of the cutler's favourite poet, Joseph Mather (who I must post about some day) sung aloud
Nicely captured Shawn :thumbup:
Another beauty Paul :thumbup:
That's a great-looking pattern Randy :thumbup:
The nextdoor neighbour has been helping me out in the garden, to do the job the landlady is paid for!
Glad you're keeping busy Thom, I think we need to see more of that Elwell :thumbup:
Stunning Jake :thumbup:
Thanks, Jack. I hope Sheffield on a Saturday (day and) night was enjoyable; the poetry indicates its a happening place.
Fantastic I*XL pearl pen knife! :thumbup::thumbup:
It certainly was thanks my friend
All the old visitors to Sheffield seem to agree on at least two things - that it was mucky as Hell, and that it had more pubs by far than anywhere else they had ever been!
Thanks for the kind comments on my IXL, here it is in use yesterday
Carrying my Lick Creek #14 Barlow today
Have a great Sunday everyone :thumbup:
