The quilted interior and herringbone tweed means it wears fine in the cold with less layers than normal. This runs a bit...

    Coping with the heat.

    So the advice here generally, is "open the windows". :laugh: Here it's been hotter out than in, but the bricks and flat roof are heating up now so I've opened all the windows and have a fan running. Dog is on shortish walks to the stream where we paddle, and I'm doing everything slower than...

    Sharpenset knife sharpener

    Interesting. Hope that stone never needs replacing, it looks expensive. Are the slopes at top and bottom for different edge angles and you’re limited to just 2 bevel angles?

    Ticks

    My dad was a vet and got jostled by a cow he was injecting. Needle stabbed him and he got Brucellosis. It used to wipe him out, but only occasionally, though he carried it his whole life. Still does, 97 on Monday!
