Right, I slept in today, probably because I spent the best part of the whole of yesterday drinking, and struggled on at work, but now I am back.


I may need a weekend to get over this weekend!

If it was just concentrated on my head I would be happy, but it isn't...............my arms ache, my head aches, my stomach aches, my arse aches.......................


I was saying bye to a couple of friends who have moved out to Argentina, they flew out at 6am!


Felt only right to punish them by giving them hangovers on the plane!


Drank Godfathers all night, I still feel sick!

So a yearly trip for our xmas things is all that is needed, good job all of their customers are not like us!!!!!!

we were in there yesterday too (but after going to Iceland in Benissa last week there wasnt much I needed), after having a mouch round the boot sale then we went off to Monroes for dinner

Well its this weekend that I have my first day on the shoot, I will be dressed to the nines in some of the North West of England's finest tweeds and sporting a fine Spanish side by side while quaffing malt from hip flasks and talking about my share prices.


I will let you all know what it went like, I have been told that I am not allowed to take a camera!

Good luck and enjoy yourself, shame there is no pics though.
Get her to take a pic before you get all muddy. ;-))

Whilst quaffing, please take care not to erroneously shoot someone please :)

Well I'm back......................very pished but back.


we managed to shoot 33 birds...............a lot you might say, but there were 20 of us, so not that much compared to the other (commercial) shoot who had a shoot lunch in the same pub who managed 512 birds!!!!!


We had a massive roast beef lunch, a bottle of wine each, and 5 bottles of port so I am stuffed, very tipsy and in need of a REALLY hot bath but feeling good.


Hope you all had a good day.

Hi Matt
Glad you had a good day - what do they do with all the birds - do you take them home and eat them or does something else happen to them?????
I like your avitar by the way - very cute ;).
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Love Sam

Hi there.

No I am a great believer in making good use in whatever I can, the pair I took away are being cooked tonight for supper, and I know everyone else will be doing the same at some point.

We only plan to shoot every other weekend now so it will be easy to use whatever we shoot.

All good fun.
