oldwoodcutter replied to swinny's topic in General chat
I dont like to start much before 9 on a sunday,especially if theres houses all around. -
Well i was brought up a christian way back when,i go to church occasionly like harvest festival and chrismas. When things could have gone very bad i'll admit ive sent a prayer up under my breath and everything turned out for the good. More than that i dont know.

There are several tribes at it round swaffham at the moment,and have been since before xmas. I faced up to 1 lot who came shuffling into my work area last autumn on the roadside. Although these rats of the 2 legged variety usually only come out at night.

Years ago a big estate next to me let a day to a party of germans,i was there as a loader and at the begining of 1 drive the head keeper said sternly that there was a special white pheasant in the wood and on no account was it to be shot. Yes,the first bird out was that one,and they bottled it. Happy days.

I had a nightmare about the grim reaper, he and i were cutting up carrots. I know i was dicing with death.

My young draggers and lifters always seem to be fiddling with papers and bacca and lighters,coughing and spitting,no wonder their stamina has gone by lunchtime breathing all that in. I prefer the lovely fresh air anytime.

On the high hedge reductions its the blinking brambles or honeysuckle that seems to snag every bit as you try to free the lumps off.theres always 1 strand holding everything up.Still,as said,pays the bills.

Lummy me,I dont think i'll be giving him a hand on a sunday morning.

Not being exactly snowed under with tree work,a young friend has had a side line supplying his local trendy pub/resteuront with 12 fresh squirrels a week.However the food standards agency have stuck their oar into the chefs creation and stipulated that each squirrel dish on the table must bear the warning 'may contain nuts'

Work of the highest order again Tommy,thanks for sharing.

I hope you get your tools back and they throw the book at them. Ime at an age when i have to get up in the middle of the night,and then i use the opportunity for a quick shufty out the window to see if i can see or hear anything out in the yard.its difficult not to get paranoid as wakarb has said.
-
I hope you get him Dean.My cord is stacked on a concrete pad 1/2 a mile down a gated single track least a mile from the nearest house.Theres only one way in and one way out but still they blinkin nick it. As its a dead end,if caught they cant drive out,they must realise they'd be trapped but still dare do it. These rats are the 2 legged variety that only come out at night,it'll be a long time before they load up again if i catch them.
-
I dont think we've got one,but i have noticed that the mats get thrown upside down into the yard from time to time,then get taken back inside again sometime later.

Being with our grandchildren when they unwrapped their presents.
