Fal Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 Check this out guys, cracking challenge he has set himself. I am 99% certain that this guy is a forum member, that dog looks very familiar and the name Gwen rings a bell. I think it may be around the same age as mine and I remember seeing some pics of her when she was younger. He was from North Wales too, but I cannot recall what his username was. Anyway link below! http://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/you-dont-live-country-estate-9151929 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KFC Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 Don't blame him. The only thing I get from the butcher's for a long time now is Bacon and Sausages. In my freezer at the moment is Rabbit, Pigeon, Squirrel, Muntjac, Pheasant, Partridge, Coot, Moorhen, Cod, Dogfish, Rainbow Trout and, earlier this week, I've just eaten a Skate. All caught or shot by me or my friends. Added through the year will be Chinese Water Deer, Roe Deer, Bass, Whiting, Mullet, Dabs, Plaice and Hare. All low fat organic chemical free (other than residuals of course). I'll echo his thoughts about Canada Goose. I managed to get another year out of a pair of boots by resoling them with slices of Canada Goose breast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
