    Cracking picture that ?

    When I’m working around my mates farm I often use the reach truck for loading the trailer, my mates old fella has always had manitou’s and I’m sure he buys them just so when I’m using it he can say “ I’ve been told you like a man a too” before walking off laughing to himself ?

    When you said you were moving sheep around with it I had visions of the forks under the sheep’s belly, good job you put a picture up, I was just about to report you to packham ??

    That’s an amazing thing to do, the mother in law used to do emergency foster care, mainly babies removed from scum bags, at the time the missus was still at home and the two of them used to take care of them, she remembers social services turning up in the early hours with kids, we discussed it a few years ago because there’s just me and her rattling around in our big house, the only problem would be is she works very long hours at the hospital and according to her I’m way to irresponsible to look after anything more than a goldfish

    First time I ever played with a .17hmr and it was at this moment I realised I wanted a marmite mouse gun ?

    Well I’ve rapped in, I told them they are taking the piss and I’m not willing to work for less than 300 quid a week, the gaffer said I would have to give written notice and have to work 4 weeks, I was about to tell him to get f*cked when my missus rang and said she would do my notice for me, it’s a lot better than if it had come out of my mouth, after my boss passed it on to the director he came to see me, he said he completely understands why I’m going and he will accept my resignation, I was just about to say “I wasn’t asking for your f*cking permission you tw*t” when he said to me there wou

    A couple of bambi with little Hugo’s dad ( I should give him a name, I’ll call him Andy because most of the things I call him I couldn’t put on here ) we don’t shoot many deer around here, even though I have a lot of land to take them from, fallow and roe are all we have to choose from, when we are done with this madness I’m definitely going to do a bit more deer stalking ?

    That made me laugh ?

    My best ever day at our shoot, 2018/2019 season,I had a stand on two of the main drives and shot 15, if you ever see me with a shotgun you would wonder how this was possible, I know I did ??

    A couple of Christmas shoots, one of the old boys ( Jim ) dressed as Santa really is a disturbing image ?

    Ferreting with a lad off here who messaged me asking if I had anywhere he could have a go, we only went once but it was something I hadn’t done for a long time and I really enjoyed our morning out

    I don’t know how long ago it was, but it must of been a good while ago, he’s 50 now

    A little bit different and not strictly shooting as such, but me and my mate made a flight pond for someone who has to much money, it’s a big old splash with an island in the middle with a depth of half a meter at the edge to 1.5 meters towards the middle, we poured a retaining wall all the way round to get a true level, as you can see the gaffer from the concrete company kept a good eye on us, we did this maybe 4 years ago and have never been invited to shoot it, miserable buggers

    A few times we were out just having a walk around a couple of farms, most of the time this was just to check places out to see how we would tackle them on a night, but it was always fun to take the shotgun along for a few bangs

    It had made it through the barrage of shots over the season and I like to think that was it’s victory fly by ?

    I wish I’d started taking them when I first started out with the dogs and the fishing ( even the poaching with the lads that took me out as a kid ) I had some amazing times out, but they are all just distant memories now ( I’m talking like I’m 110 ?)

    Pigeon shooting with mosh, we have never had big bags, partly because I’m terrible with a shotgun, if we have 50/60 birds we have had a cracking day

    Up at the shoot at first light on an early February morning just as the season had ended, on my own just surrounded by nature, there’s nowhere else I would rather have been ?

    You certainly miss it when it’s gone, but it will be back and I’ll never take it for granted again, I’ve really enjoyed looking through my collection of pictures and remembering things I’d forgotten about, we’ll definitely have some more cracking day and nights out in the future ? ive just got off the phone to mosh and the poor lad is going mental stuck in the house, like the rest of us he’s going to work and nothing much else, only difference is we don’t have a farmer John to cope with ?

    Game shooting how it should be done, Hugo’s dad ( pre Hugo ) on peg 1, me on peg 2 on what is known as Gordon’s pen drive, I’m guessing this was about 8 years ago because we have changed the way we do this drive now so peg 1 is about 400 yards away from where it was, this is now the best drive we have and if you pull peg 5 or 6 you are going to get some first class birds, longshanx’s has shot peg 6 while I was on peg 5 and for the first time in an age I never made a fool of myself, dropping 3 consecutive birds behind him ( to his and also mine amazement ?) me and mosh a couple of years ag

    Perfect mate, what a lovely looking dog, you always take a cracking picture ?
  22. Stavross
    First couple of times I took longshanx out for a go at the hoppers, I’ve not known him that long but has become a good mate, even fitting in with my pheasant syndicate he’s even managed to get himself an invite to join the shoot ( he must of done a lot of arse kissing for this because he certainly wouldn’t get in on looks and personality ??)

    Long distance bunny bashing with Hugo’s dad on a summer’s evening, using the .17hmr mouse gun, at this property the rear garden is approximately 140 yards long and 120 yards wide, a cracking bit of fun shooting the full length of the land if you are getting board of these tell me and I’ll stop I’m joking, I’ll never stop ?????

    That’s a shame we could do with a bit of eye candy in these trying times ?

    A bit of an odd one for me, urban pest control, this one took place in 2014 I think around June, if I remember correctly the garden was 30 meters, the day I went to have a look the vixen was keeping her eye on 3 cubs, mid afternoon on a warm day, I went back a day or two later I think, I accounted for the vixen first and then the 3 cubs, with the only tool suitable for the job, the .22 rimfire, I never did get the dog or even see it
