Did you get it with the mighty HMR, dog/vixen? Distance? Or did you strangle it with your bare hands in a fit of rage because it was eyeing up your ladies ?

? good job lads ?

Definitely better than strictly ?

Can’t beat a bit of quality man time ? you deviant

Yep, it’s blowing a hooley over this way with a bit of the wet stuff, but I’d still risk it if I thought I could get away with it to top it off the farmer from the sheep farm has just rang me asking if I could get him a roe doe, if he’d of rang earlier I could of had a run up to his spot and had a look about and wouldn’t be sat here watching strictly while the missus sits with the bloody cat on the sofa doing a crossword “ROCK AND ROLL”
-
The missus has just said to me “ are you not going out tonight “ I said “no” she said “why not” I said “because I thought you might want me to stay in” she said “that doesn’t normally bother you” ? now will I get it in the neck if I go out or will she be ok with it mind games is what it is ?
-
The only quick step I do, is out the door with my rifle when her backs turned ?
-
I thought it was just because you were unsociable ?

I’ve known this lad since he was 15 and he’s 40 next week and I can honestly say he’s got worse with age
-
He asked if I wanted to go out tonight but I’d had enough of him last night ( he’s like that all the time but I never learn ) so I’m staying in tonight and going to the shoot first light in the morning on my own for some squizzer bashing

Thoughts are with you and your family, at the moment I have a relative who is receiving palliative care ( he’s only 54 ) and it’s so hard on the family in so many different ways, this life can be so cruel sometimes, from reading your posts I know you will, but to others, you must make the most of life with the ones you love because no one knows what’s around the corner

A trip to the sheep farm last night and an evening that didn’t start well, I’d arranged to meet up with my mate as we travel in separate cars ( social distancing and all that) I got to the place where I meet him and he wasn’t there, I waited 10 minutes and he still hadn’t turned up, so I thought I’d give him a ring, bugger, left my phone at home, so I waited. 20 minutes later he arrived with some excuse I wasn’t listening to, so we set off, 20 minutes later on the back roads to the farm he was no longer behind me, so I pulled over and give him a couple of minutes before turning round to go fin

That’s the type of grocery shopping I like ? -
A mate of mine has one on his farm ( we know them as ladder traps ) it’s mad how many you get in them, they used to put his lad in to dispatch them, there’s something not quite right with that lad he seemed to enjoy it a bit to much

There should be a nice little Christmas box coming your way ? -
Horrible buggers, I’ve seen ewes cast or stuck somewhere ( because they are idiots) and the crows mobbing them, they are not called a murder for nothing, they have made an appearance back on the sheep farm, they disappeared after they got rid of the beast, the farmer told me they are back in smaller numbers, in the past me and my mate Mosh had some cracking mornings at them

I think it’s a bit beyond me, I’m much more of a big spanner’s and hammers kind of fella, if it doesn’t work when you hit it the first time, hit it again but harder, making things look pretty has never been my strong point ?
-
No shooting here, the place is like a zoo, along with the race horses there’s alpaca, sheep, goats, donkeys, some posh looking chickens and guinea fowl, a couple of years ago we put a pond in for him that you can row a boat around, when I pulled in today they must of been 50 ducks on it, my mate has been on at him most of the day to have an evening on the pond, but he’s having none of it, saying his shooting days are over and he likes to just watch them now ?
-
I’ve just had a look at them and there’s a few for sale, in the condition it’s in I’d say it’s worth between 6 and 8 grand, fully restored they are upwards of 25k another thing is it says the 2 cylinder engine is 22hp with that kind of power you would be better off with a horse
-
Nothing to do with any of this but I was wondering if any of you lot are interested in old mechanical stuff, I love proper old engineering and I’ve never seen one of these before it’s a 1940’s ( I think) Porsche 2 cylinder, air cooled diesel tractor. Where I was working today the shed is like an Aladdin’s cave, I was having a mooch to see if there was anything I could tap off him and he started tell me it hadn’t started for over 30 years and if I could get it running he’d give me 20 quid, he said they had played with it but couldn’t get it to start. After a quick look I noticed someone h

? exciting stuff, spring into action like the 4th emergency service, you will have more eggs than you know what to do with ? -
There is a pheasant that has got all territorial near my feed shed . He comes and attacks me , I’ve given him a taste of my size 11 Le chameau’s , but it just makes him all the madder . It’s him or me , who’s going to be the boss ? by the way he’s eyeing you up, think we all know who the boss is ?

Arrr, the kappa slapper tracksuit, takes me back to my raving days in the early 90’s, simpler times, still spend most of my time in fields but now I don’t jump about like zebedee from the magic roundabout ?
