CAUTION My other passion, Falconry

Thank you, I have thousands of them mate, had to move them to a hard drive as there was over 30,000

Just think how much Boots would charge you to develop that lot
 
Great pictures from a country lad Sean, I love the picture of you and your daughter. I used to take our Abbie fishing, she could get up at silly o'clock to go fishing at about the same age as your daughter, not so keen for school a few years later. 2010 was a fairly snowy affair round here too, kept me off work for 2 days (shame!).Thank you for sharing them.

Tony.
Glad you like them Tony, I was a bit dubious about putting them on, I too take Molly carp fishing, we went over night last summer but we where home for 10.30 :)
 
I have been known to take 1 or 2k of photos my self. I have 1TB external hard drive which is nearly full
 
He also caught hundreds of rabbits over the years, this was a memorable one as he punched through 5ft of cover and nailed it by the backend, the first thing I do is dispatch the quarry.

I have a Carp lake next door Sean, run by my mate Neil. I used to be a really mad keen coarse angler but after my heart op 8 years ago the passion has gone.:( After that I started spending my money on a Mazda MX5 (Eunos) then my Z3 and now the Z4.:)

The same happened to me Tony, just lost it, I lived for carp fishing and used to fish Spain and France 4-5 times a year, then I just lost it,

Nice fish mate. I was "banned" from fishing by my surgeon after the op to let my chest bone heal, wasn't even allowed to play darts believe it or not. Chucking a large, heavy feeder across the Trent with a 14ft feeder rod was out of the question. Still have all my gear though.;)

I sold most of mine pal, just have the basics now, I also used to really enjoy winter pike

TBH, I would have probably sold mine if I could have got a decent price, but angling isn't what it was 10 years ago, I think fuel prices have finished the likelihood of people travelling far just for a day's fishing.

Enjoying this read, used to go beating as a kid and got paid with a brace of Pheasants and a couple of bob.
Quite alarming though when the shot came down around and about you, great fun but I don't think they would let kids do it these days.
Used to play a game with my mum, hung the birds in the garage, she would through them in the bin, I would pull them out and so on and so on......

I still enjoy beating Mike but I have never hung game for more then a couple of days and thats in the cold, heres a brace for you, both caught within 20 mins of being out, this really was a special hawk, the likes I will probably never find again, amazing how we take things for granted

I when to Australia for 7 weeks and took 365 photo on film 10 years late i went to Cario for 2 weeks and took 7k photos. Digital is the way forward
 
A German mate of mine has a licence to hunt wild boar, now that is a different (people will hate this word) sport all together but they do not get wasted, they all get eaten.
