    Hi since someone mention cats he's my cat marlie, bengal snow leopard blue eyes cross eyed He's having a better time since the puppy has arrived
  3. Having my lunch in the van, up the road a van pulls over guy jumps out, ladders up side of a large tree ( oak or beech) honestly not sure but bloody big tree . He pulls a chainsaw out of van, climbed the ladder, one foot on branch, one foot on ladder! Starts chainsaw up, cuts branches off ! Guys wearing shorts ! Thick socks and heavy duty trainers, hiking type. Cut branches off, branches on floor, he goes at them with chainsaw like Edward scissor hand did with the ice sculpture. Throws branches inside van. Off he drives ! The thought what could happen made me cringe !
  4. As a newbie I wanted to go, but it's a long way . So I pass this time, maybe once qualified I make some friends and share the fuel next time. On the other hand is there any shows up in the Lancashire area ?
  5. Why is it when you look in the mirror you look fatter? Or is it just that u are fatter!

    My new dog.

    Looking forward to taking Ziggy to work especially if rats are the order of the day, pooch got a inquisitive nose. I travel To Bradford and Leeds most weeks so the staff in the offices are keen to see the new dog. They all know bobby ! He's coming to the range in due course. He's coming away with us in 3 weeks time, going to a Village hotel in Chester , all the village hotels are dog friendly .

    My new dog.

    Hi all, It's been three weeks since losing Bobby. me and the wife looking lost since that awful day my wife had a wonderful surprise as my son bought a New puppy ! The photos are of Ziggy a 9 week old Black and Tan Yorkshire terrier, he is mischievous, fun loving and a little cracker! Very playful and come this Sunday he has been with us a week! He is learning fast and teaching him we're to do his toilet business, the odd hit and miss but when he gets it right , we say well done, he sits back and offers a paw! Happy days are hear again.

  21. Hi since I have to hire my PPE for all my tickets. I've decided to buy my PPE kit for my tickets I hope to work for a company and use my kit until I assume week or month in hand is done and a permanent job is offered, after that I'd let the new company provide my PPE and my kit can go back home Cheers Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
