Welcome to 2026! I hope this is a good year for everyone, hopefully even better than last year. Try not to fall over folks, it's not fun. 🌞🎈🎉 Coming to you from sunny Australia, that big lump of land under the equator. Sunday Selections will be continuing, hosted by me , participation is optional, if you can't manage every week for any reason, that's okay. Words for Wednesday will also be continuing, hosted by me , and again, participation is optional, play when you can, take a break when you need to. Charlotte will be providing a colour for each month as she did last year, we try to use the colour somewhere in our posts, either photographing something with that colour or using it in another way. This month's colour is Carmine: Isn't that just gorgeous? And why is my text in two different sizes?
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! :)
