I had no idea what to call this topic.A few weeks ago I had a notion that saltwater striped bass would migrate from a lake up a long winding creek.This creek is 70 miles from my house and I haven't explored it before but I couldn't let go of this idea.I assumed I could catch one.After several days of walking and kayaking I hadn't caught any.I did learn some history and meet some critters along the way. After several days of making the long drive.Walking and kayaking until my body hurt.I began to wonder why I am so stubborn.Why couldn't I just admit that I was wrong.Satu

Just had conformation of my six monthly MRI scan, I'm all clear next scan in 12 months time

Few pics of pup from earlier, already starting to come out her shell, god hop is in a few days haha she real confident

That’s the mother, I won’t put pictures of the dog as I used a buddies dog for an outcross this time. We knocked a litter out of this bitch to her half brother near two years ago and there all shaping up well so hopefully more of the same this time round.

Is it just me because I’m weird as f**k or can anyone else just genuinely not tolerate lateness ?? Like, with me, it’s to the point that I get genuinely f***ing enraged ! I don’t understand it at all, I never wait, I don’t try and call, I just drive away if it’s a mobile thing but with things you can’t drive away from, I absolutely want to do the person damage ! Just be minimum 5 minutes early…..it’s not f***ing hard. Id be ashamed to conduct myself like that where I can’t even manage to tell the f***ing time.

Going through some old pics .for over 30 years ive kept bushers ,from sealyhams to spaniel crosses, failed earthdogs that were real ens for bushing when we were younger , ive had the privilege to own some real good bushers and dedicated any free time to these little warriors. Ive been up and down the country and over to ireland with bushers and lurchers and had some cracking weekends.

Mrs Stav’s mate round for dinner today so I’ve had to posh it up a bit, went for pot roast beef, gravy made from the pot, cream mash, carrot and turnip mash, sage Yorkshire puds, thyme roast spuds, cabbage cheese with panko breadcrumbs ( same as cauliflower cheese but with white cabbage) and a bit of veg

A man is rich by the things he can live without mate, im with you my kids and grand kids all live within an 100 yards of me and im never happier than sitting out on the grass cooking for all and sundry watching the little ones fish and play while the adults sit round a fire chewing the cud costs fa bar the grub and is more fulfilling than any car or holiday money can buy

Think he more concerned about the home than the money tbh mate few pics a mine from today

Imagine a fully grown man been seen riding around on that faggot

60 horses 335 cattle and around 30 hounds here bangers 3 patterdales also. I’m a busy man have no time to potter around on a pushbike wearing shorts and runners like a young lad. You’ve been slack at the work since you pointed the wall with the catapult that time

12 years ago on a train back from Paris after an extremely nice week visiting the city, eating some outstanding meals in great places and generally having the best time money could buy…..I said to myself “hold on, would I tolerate this f***ing scam off a private person ?” Fact is, if the it wasn’t the government nobody would tolerate being ripped off so much to just be abused….and it is abuse, there’s no other word for it, it’s total and utter abuse done under the illusion of wealth. And that wealth is an illusion most of the time, most of it is on someone’s book…..that’s how th

Rack of yearling Roe doe…..5 minutes on the barbecue…spot on .

Must have been well out of shape last bank holiday as I thought I was not up to the 6/8 miles twice a day bending down looking for teeth plus climbing over rocks.Glad to say since Starting swimming and getting back on the mountain bike things are looking up .Anyway this time has been worth it finally got a more complete mackerel shark tooth plus a big fish vertebrae.Concentated on finding a big one and after 5 years of looking my luck improved big time.This big one is about 50 million years old.

Well, we are 3.5 years into the small holding project and getting on the top side. Few bits to do this year but pretty much broke its back, mainly now is about improving to maximise yields and how to make the most of it, succession planting, storage, pickling etc. So.....I needed a new project and here she is. Shetland Saker. Hull and top side in good condition needs full fit out as its been stripped out by previous owner. That suits me because I would have stripped it anyway. Steady away at it this year restoring her with a view to hitting the canals/rivers next spring. Looking

Been out for a little drive to the forest this afternoon stopped on the Severn and wye fish place and got this little lot for her indoors first course nailed

When i lived on hippy sites we once had some irish park up a few hundred yards away and a few of the lads came down to our site generally on some blag or spouting utter shite like most p***y's do, anyway we had a 3 legged lurcher on site and she was a big strong looking thing and what a shame she'd been run over and had lost her front leg. These lads asked what happened to her leg and i told them we ate it, i said we were living on sugar loaf mountain in wales and had been snowed in for a few weeks and we were all starving and rather than kill the dog,because she was a good dog we cut off her

Mate...if some c**t turns up with a gun....I'm pretending to be a cleaner

It’s given me a few blisters

I know its a bit retro, but have you tried having sex with a genuine woman? Call me old fashioned, stone age, quaintly old-fashioned or whatever. But it's amazing.

Met with Scotty today. Crossed the borders hills to find wanger. Sadly we never found him

My houndsmen buddy called me two weeks back and said he got another bass boat in a trade and wanted to know if I wanted the project John boat he'd been working on . Said he didn't need it anymore and just kinda wanted it out his yard for more space , just give him an offer he said. Offered $1200 because that's the goin rate on Facebook marketplace, he said hell no too much and to just bring him something and come get it when I had a chance. Well got home a shooting tripod I knew he wanted and $600 and now I have a boat and trailer drive one about the same size at work for crew changes but pa

I’ve come home but left the lads at it I’ll be back tomoro again. Great to be shoulder to shoulder with staunch men who know they have right on their side and aren’t afraid to stand up and say it. Support was unbelievable I’d imagine tomoro will be bigger again.

Cheers.

Wifey did a picky tea tonight. Cheers Arry

It makes me angry when idiots on tv say the state pension is a “benefit “ ! Its not ! If you haven’t paid into it in the form of so many years National Insurance contributions, you don’t get a pension , simple as that. Being put up for free in a hotel, getting fed for free, free clothes, free phone, pocket money, free transport, etc are benefits given to people that shouldn’t be in this country are benefits old people can only dream of ! If the benefit system needs reducing, I wouldn’t start with the pensioners, I know where I would start ! Cheers.

Good old chicken dinner today, just what was needed after a night out on the ale last night with family, just dropped my 73 year old mothers off and she’s hanging out her arse

Old photos, i never get good ones nowadays with a phone camera.

Checked the cage trap I had set for squirrels this morning. This little twat was in it, so gave him a drink and put him by the hedgehog box in the corner of the garden. Cheers Arry
