  1. Was a surface root.
  2. Interesting little find today.
  3. I used to look after my mates when he was away in return for the eggs I collected. As I left their run one day with 8 or 9 eggs in hand I dropped one trying to close the gate. My god they were desperate to get at it. I'd no sooner grabbed one and thrown it back through the gate than another two were out, like a conveyer belt of birds fighting to get past me to the sacred broken egg. It was hopeless until I threw another egg back in the run and they all went for that so I got the gate closed. They definitely love eggs.
  4. See things in Germany aren't good, civil unrest due to a lack of sausages and cheese. A government spokesperson said it has become a Wurst Käse scenario.

  7. Well done peds, they look very happy. If I was closer by I'd happily help you/them out.
  8. Tip the chip over audi in the adjacent lane, or codwood off the trailer on the bypass and stop everyone getting home in return for them holding me up in the morning, it's becoming very appealing.
  9. That's exactly what Miri said. Unfortunately the next day there's 3 of us in a cabster or a mog, he'd never fit!
  10. It's funny but I'm fairly used to the experience, this feels very different though as I can barely remember a time with no dog at all to consider. Was hard the other day on the grapple truck job, it was at a dogs trust property. Every time I went through a particular gate I was facing a kennel with a lovely gsd who would stand up expectantly, then as I turned away he'd lie down again. Desperately wanted to take him with me!
  11. Speak up laddie, ah cannae hear a word yer sayin'
  12. Remember I'm up the road Alex, it's still called a walk in the woods and we can do it wherever we fancy for free! Although it feels horribly wrong to do it without the company of at least one dog.
  13. Morning all. Suffering again this morning, but a little less. Yesterday morning I spent a considerable amount of time trying to deduce what was 'beeping' around the house. A series of 3 beeps repeating, like morse code, then it would disappear, then hear it again. I unplugged electrical appliances one at a time in between standing still listening intently like a dog on the hunt. Eventually I went outside and realised it must be a new level of tinnitus from Friday's restaurant/pub experience. The oh kindly took me to a Nepalese restaurant last night for a birthday meal which was exactly the same assault on my ears again, only a couple of hours but I'm hearing all sorts today. Anyway, yesterday I spent the afternoon quietly hanging about in the woods on my own which was bliss, think I'll repeat today. Have a good one folks.

  15. Morning all. Feel like I did six tours in the Vietnam war yesterday! Really not used to being that sociable, or being in the city. Stupidly I thought I was used to it due to working there every day but a very different place without ppe as armour and signs to keep them back! Never thought to take my protos with me but I missed it in the pub! Anyway a good day out was had by all and the oh rescued me early so I missed the "youngsters" shots carnage. @Stephen Blair Tom says hello. Have a good one folks.

  17. I'll take that as a resounding vote of confidence Les, many thanks.
  18. I've no need for peckers or beers so it's a win win
  19. Why on earth didn't I think of that, must be an age thing.
  20. Both, with a little tartan flask. I'm worth it.
  21. Yeah your ex stubby said that too
  22. 😂 Jonepia Lesley-Badger carries some gravitas!
  23. Happy birthday to you too!
