keg Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 After the rain and hail stopped, I picked the lead up and me and the hound set off to walk to my mum's place in the next village. The sun was out but it was cold and fresh. The walk is a mixture of village high street, fields and suburbia. Some great views as well. It was great, been better if mrs & daughter had come but still good ...... and free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 Couldn't agree more. I took the chessie and the lab for a wee run out this afternoon with all three of my kids. It was ******* cold but all were well happed up. Flushed a couple of pheasants and got some clean air in the lungs. Well worth the effort of getting the dog trailer out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kes Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 I spent the afternoon in good company waiting for a few woodies to settle in for the night ended with 8 but it wouldnt have mattered if there were non shot - wild garlic coming out, bluebells, beautiful setting sun, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digger Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 Totally agree, took today off and spent it pottering around the garden with my 18 month old daughter. Tad chilly but she loved digging around and shouting "quack" every time ducks flew over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keg Posted March 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 It's when she points her arms and goes "bang" you know she has the shooting bug. Mine is 8 now and loves being out and about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

team tractor Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 Sign of a good parent in my opinion and the hugs followed by " I love you daddy" That feels great I'm 32 and tell my mum and dad I love them all the time now and give them a hug. I know how they feel now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keg Posted March 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 I do the same with my mum and she's 83, my dad died in 1991 but I still gave them a kiss goodbye and told them I loved them when I left the house when I lived at home, so glad I did, one Saturday I came back and he had died of a heart attack.

oneshot1979 Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 After a near fatal accident last October finally got rid of my tin sticks and took my little maid out for walk in the woods Sunday before last, in tremendous pain by the end and had a few tingly nose moments as my little girl kept cheering me on and pulling me up the steep by the hand when I was struggling yelling to everyone we met "MY DADDY CAN WALK AGAIN". Stood there at the end taking some photos as the sun set through the trees and really did have one of those best things in life are free moments. Wished I could've shared it with so many people but at the same time glad I had it all to myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
