I am fooked now, with bad back,right knee and going deaf lol, and hurt my shoulder bad last year, so really should call it a day now I think really. But the prob is I am still keen to get out lamping, we went out last night had 20 odd rabbits with his dog Buster and my young dog Buck, got in this morning 4.30 am lol so can see love it , but my body thinks different , and it will prob win in the end , shame really but that life no fooker likes to get old Don't think about stoping ray,,,you seen what happens to them old fellas that retire from work,,,have no hobbies ,,,they turn there heels up 6 month later.....keep going till you drop mate,,, I've always said,,,if I could choose a time to die it would be whilst out working the dogs and ferrets,,,, Trouble is with that tomo who ever ferrets with you would have to carry the rabbits ferret boxes nets and you back to the motor,better make sure you invite a few out just in case lol Quote Link to post
