Was chatting to someone I know yesterday and he asked me if I was still looking for a little couple of days a week job as I get a bit bored and the beer tokens come in handy so I says yes what’s going on to which he reply’s that a guy we both know is looking for someone two days a week shooting birds on the runway of an raf base on the Cotswolds so I’ve put my name in the hat but think it’s mine there is several lakes on site strictly no fishing but containing carp over 40lb never fished for so if all goes well it will be two 12 hour days shooting and I’ll stay overnight in the van and fish th

Truth be told as my grandad always said if you argue with a fool your a fool yourself let my self down even getting into it with him or explaining anything lol I don't need to explain myself over the Internet being honest Daniel and oldboys bought me out when I didn't have a licence got me dogs or went out there way to help me get something theres a kid goes out with us now and before he got his car i drove 30 mins each way the wrong way so he could get out for a hunt ive give him a digging dog a hound is that not what it's about mate I hope when I'm an old man il get picked up and bought ou

Thank you for the kind words Kev.Although I feel they are undeserved.Thank you for the invitation.I had a good time with like minded people.Have a great trip and be safe.Call if you need me.I went to meet 2 strangers and left feeling like old friends.

...so take it this would be a bad time to tell you my buck rabbit is jet black and the two does I got him are both white

We met with @Rickshaw swamilast night, once again thank you mate for your time and generosity. We had an amazing dinner, talked for hours, hunting and fishing dominating the talk, but history, music and family as well, I think we spent about 3 hours together and it flew by, my wife loved it as well. We're going to stay another night in Alabama, maybe more, this place has reduced our speed to get across the states, its slowed us down, which has been great. Waylon is a top man, a proper hunting and fishing man who lives, possibly, in the best place to pursue those things.. the invite i

I was lucky in my early teens,I used to get out with an old boy Jimmy,he taught me how to snare,how to conduct myself around an earth,while digging to different quarry,He introduced me to the landowners and later gave me all his permissions-he was still coming out with us aged 81 until he passed away- without his help I wouldn't of had half the opportunities,he opened up for me... something I will always be grateful for...I still have the old terrier couples,pegging out chains ,and T bar he made me,had em close to 30 yrs

when you get old you need a few young uns,to shift the dirt...the Oldboys share their knowledge and permissions...looks to me that Gunter is flat out enjoying his sport and looking after those who went before him...can't knock him for that mate

Asked the lady I buy my quail and rabbits from if she wouldn't mind me coming by and getting a few buckets worth of the poop from under the cages for our compost pile yesterday when I got out new rabbit does and she was beyond happy to let me . Said I'd be doing her a favor more then anything. She's in her 70's ,been fighting cancer last year or so ,and can't get around like she used to and her usual help has been a little spotty apparently.Well came by yesterday to get a few buckets full and ended up helping her kill and process a few of her rabbits along with some other farm chores . Told he

Roast Lamb and mini roasties.

He certainly is mate. Ill keep chucking pictures up as we go, hopefully be of interest to most of you.. Heading to Tupelo, Mississipi today, birthplace of Elvis, undecided on whether to carry on down into Mississipi or head back into Alabama, as we have loved this state... We're booking places to kip day to day so it is completely on the hop, a bit of google maps to get a plan, checkout interesting routes et. Then head off...its served us well so far

Thanks @Rickshaw swami for the recommendation We saw the Whooping cranes and as you said, thousands of sandhill cranes..plus a lot of geese, including snow geese and loads of pin tail ducks.. the hides were great, including a fully heated hide over the lakes.. We saw 6 Whooping crane, the video below is a group.of 4 that we're a little way out, only 800 left in the wild so great to see such a rare bird https://youtube.com/shorts/3Si30U1o1p8?si=UWzLkz9JPrO-r6FO

Nice shot just behind the eye.

site is now painfully slow...... really needs sorting

You’re striking blows for the brothers all over the show with that rabbit breeding programme ! lol But watch out, when the kits are born the buck will f**k off ! lol

Fishing today

Demo on Saturday at Parliament,be interesting to see the numbers that turn up,the country has a population of 41 million and is 41 times the size of the UK,couple of years ago the country wanted immigrants,Indians came #IndianFatigueIsReal

Out on the hill today, shouting at flying chickens

It's these sorts of posts,that make up for all the shit talk and nonsense on here at times....Fair play gentlemen, reading this has put a massive smile on my face Enjoy the rest of your trip Kev, and keep us informed Mr Waylon,please keep sharing your adventures and days out grafting them terriers of yours

Something abit different today, marking the walls, she did well, then tried flying

Tell them I'll take the job , but I'm not paying them more than a hundred quid a week for it.

Another hour after work before it came dark. Managed a nice head shot on a grey. Pup was all over it.. . Shit himself when terrier came running up though.

Best thread on here by far in a long time. Was obvious mr swami was a good egg from the start on here, great to hear yous had a good time together

Check out this jammy cnut Angler left stunned as first-ever pike is a giant croc | Angling Times WWW.ANGLINGTIMES.CO.UK While most anglers catch a small jack as their first pike, Dave Owen managed to catch the fish of a lifetime, in the shape of this monster croc.

When do you want him to run his dogs bangers lol July you hate it when anyone actually does a bit now your not that simple to see black-neck scotty and everyone else are being sarcastic and you play right into there hands your like a puppet ...when it comes to mchull I won't leave that man alone il disagree with him all the time thats what you do tbh everyone says he's not so slow when it comes to running hares and he's smack bang into it so when I'm over il take up his invite with my mate no match just out for a run and I bet we'll ha e some laugh I wouldn't write all over here if his dogs

While I have had a few Squirrels lately i've been after one thats wrecking my bird feeders. He's been a crafty one. So I super glued some hazel nuts on a bit of mesh in a rabbit cage trap and that done the trick. Cheers Arry

Wifeys Deep Rustic Quiche. Cheers Arry

After toying a bout we slings over years Ive decided am gunner get back at it we em . Never was any good but I’m going for it . Ive some gypsy slings , a real nice one made by bill stockins i had custom made Im going to tube up . What would you men recommend steels size to start out with and what tubes to go with ?

Nice easy mid week session ferreting some nice woodland Warren's was all done and dusted by 12.30 for 9, dogs and ferrets worked well

What about an english deerhound from over coalville

I know lol im gonna walk the legs off him and make him jack send him home to the Irish to be forever known as the cur And im panning a few fox if I have to chuck the dog at em lol

I’ll probably need more than 9” barrels on my shotgun and a ticket as well lol but I,ll cross all those bridges once I get me foot in the door I would imaging what ever needs shooting is all covered by appropriate tickets as it’s an on going thing to stop them getting sucked in the planes it’s all new to me mate but the only things guaranteed to fail are the ones you don’t try so let’s kick the can and see were it goes

Got in work this morning and new frame arrived , got to say it’s mint !

Never used tubes though been thinking of giving them a go tbh . Their is a lad on Facebook that makes bands and made up tubes who is highly recommended and is a good lad who doesn't give two feks about some of the flak he gets from antis. Dead shot steel is his name he would probably give you good advice on what you want mate.

Been watching YouTube vids of people fishing for silvers and fancied a go at it so got all the hooks , beads , uv resin and uv torch off aliexpress only takes minutes to make a few . From what I’ve seen it needs pretty good conditions to cast such light weights and if it’s windy it’s not happening . I’ve got a new 0.2-1.5gm extra ultralight set up to cast it aswell because my normal 1-5gm bfs setup wouldn’t be up for much below 0.8gm . Gone for the thinnest braid I could find at 0.04 and I’m thinking of trying an ester line on another reel to see how it compares . Not managed to get out yet be

Strolling back from a reconnaissance trip ("reconnaissance trip " sounds better than l didn't get anything ) on my stalking permission l let the dog have a shuffle about . Not sure if the farmer who sold Edith to me suspiciously cheaply had a sense of humour or saw me coming. Whatever ,l am definately the owner of a comedy dog . Today's hilarity involved the surreal discovery of a perfectly formed bream in the middle of a field . The nearest water being a quarter of a mile away one can only wonder at the how it got there . Luckily it was frozen solid because she did the dog

Lol its what you do mate show the old.some sport they most likely took him Lads speak.highly a gunter to.be fair he gets out plenty and lads have the best a days

sure you were into terrier work your terrier killed pigs for fun lol

Seems fitting

Bangers your the greatest man to come out with ‘you don’t worry about me’ when anyone calls your crap you go on with daily but you spend your day worrying about everyone else’s business telling them where they are going wrong and what not. Every post you make screams out amateur hour pure public house talk day after day

I think it was cheap mate...£6 would still worth it

Beef omelette an chips salad cream leftover beef from that joint at weekend

You pay £4 for a poxy bacon and egg roll theses days- Id be all over your grub mate,for that price you ever thought about a little mobile hotfood van? you would make a killing going around the big construction sites ,offices etc? something to maybe think about,I know a few people down my way are killing it

Things like this are what makes this place a bit special nice one both of you and Kev karma ain’t always a bitch if your the good guy enjoy it mate it’s a bit of payback

Oh and saw my first bald eagle today..stunning https://youtube.com/shorts/SRYJP4zzAyU?si=OcS3I4ew9SGA5m9K

Hopefully mate, we've covered some miles since Florida Keys and not really had a chance... there's so much to see and do, today's drive through Alabama was a shorter distance, we had more stops, and it blew our heads again! Meeting Rickshaw for a meal tonight, really looking forward to it.. Alabama is stunning!
