Benthejockey Posted February 13, 2021 Report Share Posted February 13, 2021 Last night was chilly down to -4 or -5 but didn't feel too cold but christ Wednesday night i could have been in Finland again. Similar sort of temp but the air was dry and frozen. I took my coat off for 5 minutes to lamb a ewe and I was shivering! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might just pop over the farm and drop the poison , it'll only take five minutes . I really don't fancy laying on the icy ground to mess with the rifle. I'm definitely feeling my age this week 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mel b3 Posted February 13, 2021 Report Share Posted February 13, 2021 I finally managed to drag myself away from the radiator , and popped to the farm and sorted the poison. I'm glad that I didn't take the .22lr to zero , because the ground is like permafrost at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
