Long ago, Kim of Frog Ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections. A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please. Nothing rude or vulgar though. And we don't mind at all if other bloggers care to join us. The meme is now continued by Elephant's Child and I join in as do a few others. Andrew is one. Messymimi is another. Drop in to their blogs and have a look. Wisewebwoman has also been joining us occasionally. you might need your magnifying glass or a high powered microscope to read the franking over the stamp: above the stamp it reads "secure your dog" and across the stamp "for safe delivery" - this was on a Christmas card that arrived through the mail from my brother. Excellent advice I think. an "Aussie style" Christmas window display seen in the city by "no-one" David Jones Store has its traditional Chri...
the Swiss 
Oh, if only it worked as well as in McGyver! Some parts were so small, I didn't know what to use them for.
ReplyDeleteS.J.Qualls; really? I've never seen a Swiss Army Knife, so I'm surprised to hear this.
DeleteI carried one of these for years, and used every tool in it, including the saw. Mine had a compass AND the toothpick. I recently gave it to my bicycling grandson, and forgot to point out the toothpick. I'll have to quiz him on it some day.
ReplyDeleteJoanne; I used to wish I had one, but could never justify the cost and didn't really need one.
DeleteMcGyver was brilliant!!
ReplyDeletefishducky; McGyver still is brilliant :D
DeleteSeems like it would be very handy to have McGyver close at hand. I have never had a multi purpose knife, Swiss or otherwise.
ReplyDeleteCheryl; I wouldn't mind having McGyver close at hand. He could keep a Swiss army knife in his pocket.
DeleteMulti-purpose knives (and people) are brilliant Himself's has a torch as well, which he has found useful more than once.
ReplyDeleteElephant's Child; I've never owned anything that was specifically multi-purpose, although most of my stuff does get used for multi purposes. I have a mini torch on my key ring, which isn't as handy as it seems. When I'm holding the torch to see the keyhole, the key itself doesn't reach.
DeleteI think I need one. I am not sure what I would use it for, but it seems essential.
ReplyDeleteAndrew; I'm like you, I think I need one, I'd like to have one, I'm sure it would come in handy. Maybe. But I'll never get one (*~*)
DeleteI love this, but I don't think I have any use for the MacGyver attachment. It would creep me out having it in my pocket. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Elf Christine: you could keep it in your handbag instead? Probably it would still creep you out, so this is definitely not for you.
ReplyDeleteI've never watched an episode of McGyver. When it was showing first time around I was working shift work...days and nights...I didn't watch much TV at all in those times.
ReplyDeleteA handy knife to have, though! :)
