An ancient woodland that's less than a 15 minute walk from my house even though there is public footpaths through it i wander off them to avoid people. Sat on a log this morning having a coffee out of my small flask and spotted this roe deer watching me. I walk through this wood every day of the week and it does wonders for my sanity in this mad world.

Got a few different ales to try , got kids a very nice kit box they have just started racing

I like a nice bit of solitude with just a dog or 2 for company and the odd white hare

Where’s yours? mine is out on the hills alone dogs for company as far away from people as possible

I’ve had tragedies in my life that I wouldn’t wish on any man, mate, so a bit of gentle ribbing by good lads on a hunting site makes me smile ! Lifes to short, especially at my age, to be angry or bitter about things that don’t matter in the grand scheme of things. Have a great new year and go easy on the sangria…or not ! LOL ! Cheers.

It's not much but a small contributory river to the Trent that's never fished by anyone, no dog walkers ect no outside distractions. Its a place where my old man would bring me, I caught my first pike here aged 10 , I don't know what it is about the place but it fills me with inner peace, even if the fishing isn't great there's always the wildlife, just a great place to sit for a few hours and forget about everything else .

Mine would be fishing some remote loch. Not so much now but I did a bit of fishing in remote areas including over-nighters. It’s amazing what you’ll see just sat quietly somewhere.

57...and still like a Greek God

Straight into the food chain id bet, some chilli and garlic and ginger, bobs yer grannys gaylord

Fame at last ! LOL ! Anyway, I’m glad I’ve brought some fun to the festivities ! Heres one of my gifts; A Newcastle themed bottle opener for the man cave. Cheers.

Me and the missus never get each other anything, what little we have all goes on the kids , I don't need anything when I see their happy faces on Christmas morning

That is a real useful hybrid,.. and if you are lucky,.. you can get the best of both worlds..

Old samboy is 77. Still shooting every week and out with the dog every morning. But definitely slowing down.

I’m particularly pleased with my cover version “wor uptoon lass”. Cheers.

Gift from my wife

I did message Ray but he’s going to wait until Buck is gone. He’s in for a knee operation on 3rd jan & got a house move coming up soon So not the right time just yet. Atb

Got the usual socks and underware off the two Daughters and grandchildren. I always tell them not to go daft in buying anything expensive as it's the thought that counts and these off the eldest daughter. Lol that are really comfortable.

The film was wank.

Boxing Day tradition bubble cold meats n pickle

So this is kinda neat. Somehow found myself in in a rat trapping group based somewhere in South East Asia by the looks of it. How I got in it.....idk I can't even read the language Anyhow they use all of these funky looking traps. I swear I've seen something similar that used to be used here in the US in some old books . Think they where called tree traps maybe ? Anyone seen or use one ? anyhow neat seeing trapping from all over, thought someone else might find it cool too.

Just take a tent to a motorway flyover , be cheaper pal

A replacement for Rays Buck maybe?? Keep an old man at it like

In the 80/90's there were lads on every housing estate in the valleys,that kept a few racers and lurchers...been out with and walked/hunted with tons of pure greys as a teenager..My neighbour R.W had a garden full of kennels,would be 12/15 there at any one time...I used to hammer the local foxes and cats with his one son

Nice bottle of Jura, a load of new thermal base layers(for boat life in the new year),few pairs of tech shorts and walking trousers,old skool Champion hoody in green(look slick on the bank)new pair of Hiax suede boots, few Sherpa type hoodies for fishing and walking the runner,and a Xmas blowjobalso on a promise for a rub in the new year for my birthday not done bad TBF

I had a work mate who's approaching 40. He asked me the other day "does life actually begin at 40?".. and what changes? I answered.. Nope!! You're hamstrings get tighter.. You take longer windmilling.. And you fart like you remember your dad farting when you were a kid!! Lol..

48 tomorrow funnily enough!!

I mean honestly there catching them out of rice fields so think they would be a bit different tablefare then like a street rat or something. Probably more like a squirrel then anything

Mountains,real ones,Himalayas preferably.

Me, the dog, the lamp and an hour or two out at night. The allotment. My man cave. All different but equally pleasing . Cheers.

Same withe pal, long time ago though, always worked alone, just me n the dogs,andy ferrets of course, , happy days

Trouble is this is real. Wifey took this photo at the entrance to the fore street. 31st of February no wonder this country is in such a state. Cheers Arry

Think your missus been mugged off bud….. That Charts doing his tribute act. Lol. Great present hope you enjoy it. Atb

Right.., love the darts but having to watch it with the volume right down as I can’t listen to the absolute sh!te the crowd sing. The ‘don’t take me home’.., ‘yaya/kolo toure’ songs are fcuking brutal to listen to every 5 minutes.., and that ‘Scotland get battered’ song is possibly the worst ever.

Hi Guys I ended up losing all of them in the end. Took the remaining three in last Friday and the vet gave me antibiotics and rehydration fluids. She said she had a bad feeling and she was correct as none of them made it to the following morning. I just couldn’t get the fluids down them without them throwing it back up. I think it could have been distemper or bird flu. I have a fox that frequents the garden and it’s always around the ferret run and hutches as theirs always food in their (pigeons, rabbit ect) so the fix could of passed distemper onto the ferrets. Also I ha

Probably the most British film ever made there can only be one it was on yesterday afternoon made in 1964 year I was born absolute classic.

All the rage mate

Modern football terminology irritates the fcuk out of me.., and especially when it comes out the gob of some pundit who I don’t feel has earned the right to sit there and enlighten me as to what I’ve just been watching. Turnover, recycling, transitioning, pivoting, low block, high press, overload, breaking lines…, all p!sh new terms for which we already had perfectly adequate (and often more descriptive) language for. Probably made up in some think tank by people who think they’ve reinvented football. D!cks!

Everyone came yesterday ( all be it, 40 minutes late but I’d planned for that ) they got through everything that was put in front of them and didn’t overstay their welcome, success tonight has been a ragu from leftover beef, gravy bit of red wine and a few tomatoes, it was very nice

Can't be any worse at at least it's hurting the two party system

Up early trying to get the head clear

7 fish between them so far..
