  1. Pot roast beef today, I need to get some crusty bread for dipping in the leftover gravy
  2. Thought I’d go and stand in a field tonight, I might of made the wrong decision, the wind is mental
  3. Looks lovely that, but that’s enough pepper to take down an intruder
  4. That’s a nice brown ale that and still brewed there unlike the bottle of dog I’m drinking from tadcaster
  5. Mate of mine does the same, not sure if he fines them more if they don’t shoot at them, I’ll have to mention to him
  6. Thank god that weeks over, just about to have an early finish and my phone rang, the old girl from the shoot saying two trees had come down across the drive, so off up there to clear them so she could get out, just got home and I’m knackered
  7. You won’t see any white ones with me, I shoot them all, they are the lazy keepers bird of choice because they will tell you where your birds are, and everyone else
  8. Making a bit of progress on the demolition job, I’m struggling at the minute to get on this job and stay on it, got some good scrap coming out of it
  9. I’ve put 750 down this year, normally put 1000 down but I’m trying less birds better feed this year, hoping for 40 to 50 bird days and to pull a few in from other areas by feeding better than the surrounding shoots, its a driven shoot, them members stand one then beat the next, unless you are my guest, then you stand all day I looked at that but it fair old way from me and I’d have to find a nice hotel because I can’t be sleeping in a tent
  10. Quick chicken dinner tonight
  11. We’ve got 7 this season, starting on the 1st of November, if it goes well I might squeeze another day in January
  12. Stinky job today, septic tank top collapsing, drilled the old concrete top, fitted rebar, a new lid and concreted the lot, company came and quoted 14k to replace it with a treatment plant, I’ve fixed it for a few hundred quid
  13. It’s not the first thing I’d of looked for, I’ll give you that
  14. I was a HGV mechanic/electrician for 25 years before I had a midlife crisis and rapped it all in for the outdoor life
  15. This is just a guess but by what the mileage is showing, I would say both rear sensors are open circuit, I would of thought they share an earth so I’d be looking for a broken wire, I had an iveco daily do that but had lost its earth in the ABS module giving the same fault as a broken wire, I’d also check the phonic wheels on the off chance they are both buggered, this is all just guess work
  16. Digging out putting drainage into stables for a wash area, my mate got the outside with the digger, lucky me got the inside hand dig through sandstone, then off to feed my flying chickens
  17. Told to help myself to eggs today so a yorky pud in the shape of toad in da hole tonight
  18. It drives me mad, I make him leave it in the motor, as soon as we’re back in the yard it’s in his hand, I blame the parents, why does a 10 year old even need a phone
  19. I went for chicken and chorizo tagliatelle today, got the trusty blue tray out and had it on my knee in the front room because Mrs Stav is still in London
  20. Bit more weeding and seeding today
  21. That sounds like Mrs Stav, she thinks a Chinese meal is half chips, half egg fried rice and gravy
  22. Nice bottle of Pinot to finish my lazy Sunday off
  23. You don’t put chips with curry, you philistine
  24. Got the curry book out and went to the vegan section, didn’t hold out much hope for it but went for a mushroom masala, it was bloody lovely
  25. Already on it sweetheart, she’ll never know the excesses I’ve indulged in while she’s away
