"The Grinch Tree"

**CINDERS** · 12-22-2017 10:09 AM

Sorta of a tradition here now we utilize our fire place as our xmas tree as about 3 years ago we left it a bit late to procure a tree so had a brain tremble to decorate the flue.
As it only gets used for about 3-4 months of the year this sort of uses it in another fashion really easy to hang the tassels and lights around the fire place backing and tiling were done by my father in law & myself about 19 years ago.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

Sorta like a duded up Festivus Pole.
Do you have the airing of grievances before or after the feats of strength?

Not many grievances are noted, we do not buy allot for xmas now the grandies are too old, our sons got 1 foot out the door with my boot right behind him (Not really) my wife and I have what we need so our xmas'es are very quiet indeed including presents.
We do a secret Santa within the family as a lark one usually ends up with something totally useless but its fun besides after xmas & new years I gotta get up to speed averaging 30,000 steps/day as thats what my contract employer requires for ground coverage when we are in the field conducting safety checks and such on various sites we go to as safety advisor's (Most hated persons by the workers in industry/construction)
