I'm glad you had some good weather at the market.The sunshine today, after so much rain, has really made a difference though
Your Hartshead looks radiant with the sun shining off it.

I can't believe one of us let that go.Just received this Hartshead Rosewood Barlow. I was trolling the sales pages on another forum and pounced on the knife. When these first came out I was late getting to my e-mail and missed out on the Rosewood, at only twenty made they did not last long, which is understandable. Nearly dropped my phone a few times in anticipation of trying to make the sale complete. What a result! I did not think to ever see one of these up for sale, that made my day even week at that point. Yay!!

My A. Wright lambsfoot arrived also, the thing has a bear of a pull and was very dull upon receipt, but I remedied that edge quickly thereafter. Much smaller than I thought, but quite well made, and nice looking wood on the handles!

Hi SnackPack , check this post by @Cambertree that may help you. It helped me when I got my ebony lamb.

There will probably never be any more like them.

That’s great, thanks Dan. I’ll use it for a while and get that edge polished up. The walk will wear in over time for me. I mean, it’s made in Sheffield, meant for hardy northerners right?
We miss you @Modoc ED
Hope everything is going well and you're recovering.
Oh, I used to run bars at big festivals, so unfortunately I've witnessed lots of appalling behaviour from psychos in yellow-vests over the years One of the last I did was at Leeds Festival, where the 'Security' were completely out of control. On the last night one of the scum picked a fight with one of my bar staff, then radioed for the entire security team to back him up. about 25 v 18, but they were absolutely humiliated, and ended up running away to hide
Thanks Willie, I'm bigger than a lot of folks, which is one of my reasons for having a month off! I quit drinking for a couple of months at the beginning of last year, also cut out the sugar.
Sunset in the snowy forest ... my Hartshead just glows
Jake has gone to work with me everyday this week.

Very possibly.

Here's another smidgen of history, and a cabin named after my great great grandfather, John Vincent Mitchell.

Thank you, David. Yeah, they don't want to loose any profits!
But fine horn and mantra to live by!
Good morning Guardians!
Oops... Image revised to stay on theme today
All the watch photos inspired me to do one with my Grandfather's railroad watch. He was an engineer on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad way back in the 1920's and 30's.

Excellent photo of The Eye! The slogan on the mug reminds me of what I used to tell my daughter was my motto: Shut up and play the cards you're dealt!
Man Jack on it's arrival to me several years ago:

The college has been sending students to York for several years, and I think it's been a well-received program, but I think I saw somewhere that the plan is to move to a different university a year from now (Liverpool - Hope University?).

Thank you, David.What very handsome watches everyone.
Looks like your ready to conquer the wild landscape.The obligatory pork pie.
Thanks for the reminder, I need to take an apple to work. Nice picture.
I've got fish sticks piled up in the freezer...Now I have to figure what we are going to have for dinner. It will be meager.
I may have been the only person that liked fish sticks at school lunch. Still do! But for now I am opting for fish and chips with some tangy malt vinegar.I've got fish sticks piled up in the freezer...
Wanna trade for some grilled salmon?I've got fish sticks piled up in the freezer...
This was Wednesday's excursion up into our Peak District.
