London CHRISTMAS pub-meet - PICS ADDED

[Chui]

You not coming down then John?

I'll buy ya a pint mate, I'm sure I owe you one.

I'd certainly buy HTG a pint or three too...........but he won't come cos they don't sell square sausage south o' the border

[Hatethatgiraffe]

Close to 300 miles last weekend for a wee gab and some vodka round a campfire was enough of a trek for me lol
I'll get to a London do someday but I'd have to fly down rather than drive I reckon!

[roestalker270]

Damn and blast! You blokes must be tuned into my stalking calendar! I'll be up to my armpits in muck and Fallow guts

(I'm good like that)

Is this do in the afternoon or evening now. Has it been decided.......?

Cheers,

Trevor.

Defo 12-5pm - sorry, should have said earlier, but with Russell having confirmed he can join us all, the only time he can do it is an afternoon bash.

Would be just great if Owen could come along too, but he teaches I believe.

Great, thanks Chui.

Must admit that suits me, although it is a shame Owen can't make it. Still it'll be a treat to have Russell along. Poor bloke must be geeting nervous I reckon, what with being given star billing......name in banner headlines 'an all!!


Looking forward to it!

Cheers,

Trevor.

- he deserves it!

How many more individual Sheffield knifemakers are there left producing quality custom folders........?

If we ever manage to get a Knifemakers Guild going in UK...........Russell is one of the guys I'd like to see on it one day.

Couldn't agree more!

Setting a bit of a precedent though Chui. That's two Sheffield knifemakers in consecutive meetings. Who's gonna be next?

- good question, Trevor.

We would really like to have Owen Bush along..........there's an utter prime candidate for the Guild

But, not only does he produce amazing stuff, he gives a great deal back to the knifemaking/bladesmith community - lunch on me, if you ever manage it along, Owen

[Chui]

Our wonderful team at Heinnie Haynes have given us a generous selection of sharps to raffle at the Christmas bash and their chosen benefactor will be Help for Heroes.
