rascal_2005 79 Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 Once had a mate told he he brought these real good trainers in the usa but couldn bring them back with him as a racoon stole the pair!?!?!?!? Bizzare!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ratreeper 441 Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 i had a mate who said he got mugged at gun point in spain, but managed to grab the gun out of his hand and pistol whipped the mugger to death with it. If it was true he wouldn't be bloody telling everyone for a start...he also reckoned he used to smuggle kilos of coke across the border down his trousers with his dad. He was a bit of a story topper, anything anyone said they did he always had done it twice, or better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Work them hard 339 Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 An old fella from round my way called us up to go sort a problem fox, we got there and he never stopped bragging about this border he had with him saying it would do anything and was game as fook we offered to put the collar on his dog and let it have a look to which he totally changed his tune. The same guy was also showing us runs under the fences that deer had been crawling through! these runs were more rabbit than anything i thought he was just having a laugh but it turned out he was being serious ( in his mind ) he told us of all the deer he had snared under fences in his time.

Lab 10,979 Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 Spoke to an old guy in a pub one night at the bar. Think it was my 21st and he realised it was my Birthday and said it was his birthday too and blethered away while we were getting served. He asked me what i done for a living and once he realised i was into the whole hunting scene he told me about the deer he shot............at 8 miles away!!!.. Needless to say we call him "8 mile" if he is in the pub now. How i got back to the table without dropping the pints i'll never know..... :laugh: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
asanley 1,009 Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 A fella I knew told me he worked on the rigs with John Wayne ! , one day at work someone fell from high up , hit some metal grating and came through the other side like chips , he casually took off his helmet and scooped up the mess but the DUKE fainted because apparently he was a bit of a wimp . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
