Just passing the time of day and it occurred to me that's I've not been on here for a while.

Had a search round and I noted some of the "legends" of the site haven't returned. Anyway here is what is going on with me:

1. We moved to Herefordshire December 2020 to a lovely spot in a very small village. So small it has no pub, shop or school. This is a good thing.
2. I've not bought anymore guns. I did briefly have a Remington while my others were in storage. I'm now back to my full quota.
3. Clay shooting has recommenced after 2 years! @Manthing is Penkridge shoot still going? My Dad has retired pretty much but I've said I'd go and visit them once a month to make up for lost time so I can be around for a blast. I joined a local shoot here and did my first 50 birds. Ended up with 30/50. Not bad for being very rusty.
4. Our veg plot in year 1 was incredibly productive. Especially onions. Some of which were 8 inches in diameter.
5. The idiot dogs are older and greyer. Still idiots. Edward now sits on a chair when we have dinner.
6. My woodworking skills have improved having built a nice workbench and wood store.
7. I'm still annoyingly good with a springer :rolleyes:. 25m. 4x scope. 5 shots with a .22 97.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Finally got tinternet then 🤣🤣🤣
Yes Penkridge is still going. 60 bird shoot only now, must have got fed up of people ripping them off.

1st July it all happened. Almost lost my job over it too.

Funnily enough a suitable job for Openreach appeared in my feed. I was almost tempted to apply, get to interview and give them both barrels while wasting their time for once!

I'll let you know when I'm around on a Sunday.
