Covid purchases...

I’ve updated the Ute

and now have an FX Dreamline 22 cal (pcp air gun) on the way

so I can feel good about my carbon footprint.

Yeh I'd go with that, buy an air rifle to offset the carbon foot print on your new 400hp 15L/100 Dodge RAM.

What some may not be aware of is that trees breath CO2 so I’m simply doing my bit to help the planet.- bit of a greeny at heart really

That is very noble and socially responsible of you Tim. The greens will just love you.

While everyone is talking about spending up big, I feel it is time to think about Albert V W who is locked down in a community housing tower in Melbourne with his fellow African immigrants. I'm sure he would like to receive private messages of support in his time of need and maybe we can all get together to send him a food package of biltong or any food you have left over.

Thank you Sir Roderick,

My fellow African brothers and sisters appreciate your support and care packages during this time. I know that you are already contributing your tax dollars to my benefit.... but really, you should do more... So, with that in mind, please send 2x Cows, 4x Lambs and 1x goat... I think that should cover us for the next 6 weeks with sustenance and mental stimulation.

Albert you really don't need the goat do you? Besides only one won't go far..

Albert you really don't need the goat do you? Besides only one won't go far..

That's why we have the sheep..... remember, we're trying to be Australian

all my life i have had whet i believed to be good hunting knives.
none of them have been able to skin, gut, and basically break down a sheep or goat, let alone skin anything bigger, without a complete edge rebuild.
oh how we believe marketing claims!
hopefully the purchase of a custom made knife by von gruff of new zealand will solve this problem.
it is made of 1085 carbon steel heat treated to 60 rockwell.
canvas micarta handles look basic, but are tough and strong.
incorporate in the sheath is a small smooth steel, which adds a further dimension to a stropped edge, and is always with the knife wherever you happen to go.
one of my most used tools is a smallish pocket knife.
history has produced blades that go blunt from cutting 3 cable ties to blades so hard they have snapped, yet still go blunt.
the purchase of a fallkniven u2 seems to have solved this problem
made of powdered steel, the laminated blade is easy to sharpen, yet holds a hair shaving sharpness after s surprising ammount of abusive work.
and to go with these came a lansky diamond sharpening guided kit.
