  1. Saw a raccoon about 20 minutes ago,walked around a reed bed and it spotted me and was off.
  2. I could smell that photograph.
  3. You must be paid some wedge to work in that mate.My brother was on a few episodes of a life of grime or some similar program,a few years back,I don’t think he ever worked in anything like those conditions,that’s grim.
  4. I never worry about getting old Mr Green,I just worry about thinking old.
  5. What’s the strangest thing that’s ever happened when you actually got into a house,there has to be a stand-out story,C’mon spill the beans compadre.
  6. Haven’t you got any “Confessions of a driving instructor” or “Confessions of a window cleaner” type tales?There could be a movie deal in the offing,Brad Pitt plays you.
  7. Walked a trail earlier,sweltering weather,found a snake slough,saw a couple of snakes,and stood very still as a brood of wild Turkey came down the trail.
  8. 23 is ridiculous,and all jacked?

    Bare feet

    Seen blokes pulling rickshaws in bare feet in Calcutta about 30 years ago,the pavements and roads were scorching,the soles of their feet must have been rock hard calloused skin.
  10. Did 10 miles yesterday,went to the river looking for snakes,saw 4 but because of the heat they were really fast and slid off quickly,three garter and one milk snake,hundreds of leopard frogs everywhere.The cottontail here are unusually tame,it’s not difficult to get within a few feet of them.

  14. There’s a trappers convention about 2000 miles north of me this coming weekend,up in thunder bay,myersberg? From this site went before.I am not heading north for a few weeks though,got a project to finish up.
  15. I like people like that,little bit different,it’s not something the average lady thinks of doing,good on the pair of them.
  16. Just walked down to the river,dozens of raccoon prints everywhere.

    My lady has Hokas,bought them a few weeks back from a specialised running shop,really lightweight.People have worn footwear of one form or another for 40,000 years,I reckon it might catch on,got to take care of your feet.
  22. I don’t know if it’s the same virus mate,i went to a farm recently and saw written signage saying the ash was infected,I did a bit of online research when I got home and yes ash dieback is a very hing here.
