Stick 33


Harry Gold of Hampstead Garden Suburbs England has found a robust yet playful stick to share with us here at Found A Stick. So tell us Harry where did you find this robust yet playful stick?

"Gmar chatimah tovah" to you all at Found A Stick. I was returning home recently on Zot Hanukkah, the last day of Hanukkah, from synagogue and looking forward to lighting all eight lights on the Menorah with the shamash before settling down to eat some fine sufganiyah while watching my children play with their dreidel, when I found this rather fine stick on the driveway to my neighbour Saul’s house. I have been keeping my eye out for a stick to share with you all at Found A Stick over this holiday period but so far much to my sorrow had come up empty handed. So it seemed especially fitting that I should finally find this fine stick on today of all days since Zot Hanukkah is particularly auspicious for the fulfillment of prayers.


Well Harry this robust yet playful stick you have found for us here at Found A Stick is your own little Hannukkah Miracle and we thank you for sharing it with us. Gmar chatimah tovah to you too.

We were thinking that some of the words you are using here are perhaps unknown to some of our readers, so because we always try to be thoughtful here at The Stick Foundry, home of Found A Stick we thought to thoughtfully put together a little glossary of these words for those readers to which these words are unknown.

Fulfilment: The act of consummating something (a desire or promise etc)
