Chickens, racing pigeons, coursing dogs.....breeding rabbits, there’s even a pic of a shire horse in it at one point!

A few year back I was having a wonder around near a nature reserve and unbeknown to me there was a hide full of twitchers in the next field, well the dogs put a roe up from the hedge and run it straight past the hide, so one minute I,m in peaceful solitude in the middle of nowhere next I,ve got a gaggle of birdwatchers shouting abuse at me and getting all shirtie, well I’m a bit fecked to leg it so goes over to confront them, which took them by surprise a bit when I said I bet your the same pricks that were all thinking Fenton was really funny and giving it likes on YouTube so what’s the fecking difference here, with that they a just start mumbling and looking at the ground before retreating back to there hole in the hedge, so old Fenton actually saved my bacon there 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ironing is tidy mate, it nicely ticks the OCD box but only if it’s your own shirts or trousers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
