Happy 2016 to you Alan, and Happy New Year to everyone on OLF.

The name catgut is confusing. There are two explanations for the mix up.

Catgut is an abbreviation of the word cattle gut. Gut strings are made from sheep or goat intestines, in the past even from horse, mule or donkey intestines.

Otherwise it could be from the word kitgut or kitstring. Kit meant fiddle, not kitten.

Everyone celebrates in their own way....
I smoked a couple pounds of chicken thighs.
2016 is off to a savory start!

And I've just celebrated in the shop - removed a brace cap, reduced the height of the X braces and fitted a new cap.
