[bigmac 97kt 13,813]

Well after laying my daughter to rest four days later i had a mini stroke

only to find when i got to hospital id had another one a few months before

so iv had two lol

and to top it off i got a phone call off sean(vizlauk) to say we had lost the old farm perm after ten years or more

due to a little tit who had been shooting stuff he should not of so they called time on all shooting ,

We may get it back as they sayd they had never had issues ever with me and sean and to call back in two months

These mini strokes have left my left side fecked and im slow in walking and talking but im getting better lol

the hardest thing is not driving they banned me from driving for a month

but thats up on boxing day .

Any way iv not been out shooting for a while and was going to sell all my gear but got sh*t off the wife,,my other daughter

nats husband johnny and friends off here so i gave in and just put the rifle away and my gear

not sure when ill get back out mind .

Si and Allan have told me im welcome any time with them for a shoot and a few off here as well so im not stuck for days out

or nights just dont know when im fit enough to go .

Any way iv had a look at some of my old photos of nights out and days with friends and family

and as iv not put up a hunting post up for a while i thought id post some of them again

enjoy lads i know i did lol

Nice to look back Jimmy , but it’s nice to look forward as well 

keep getting better my friend and hope next year will bring you and your family  better times

As villaman said,

All the best mac.

Some fine days of sport there mate. 
Certainly a role model to anyone coming into the sport. 

God takes the best mate.

I am just so pleased that you have decided to leave things alone for now Jimmy and as I have said, you need time and rest my old friend then perhaps, just perhaps just may feel a little bit better to the point that you may enjoy and walk out with the gun.   There are a number of people who will be pleased to take you out including me but I suspect that Si has more rabbits available than me.

When this rather nasty virus has been beaten, even though it is going to take quite some time yet but when that day comes, we can get together for some clay busting Jimmy and raise a glass to Nat even if it is non alcoholic (if I am driving).

I know this Christmas is not going to be easy for any of you but just be there for eachother mate and enjoy the grandkids.

Nicely said phill , totally agree

[Stavross 16,297]

Some cracking pictures and memories there

[FOXHUNTER 5,021]

Great memories

[mark williams 7,563]

Sorry for your loss Jimmy, only pop into the forum now and then of late and just picked up on your sad loss.

           As the boys have said Jim cracking memories, photos, you take a rest and if  you feel like getting out, do so buddy at your own pace.

 

           My thoughts are with you mate,

 

                                       Mark.

Ahhh Mac. Just replied to the message mate. Epic scapboook of perhaps 10% of what you’ve got.

Much love. James x

My kids and grandkids are my life phil

but it will never go away

And friends like you trish ,,Si,,sean,,allan..delboy have been there fron the start mate

and every one else off here

it means a hell of a lot i can tell you

and there not just words ether it moved me to tears some of the comments and pm.s iv had

theres going to be one emty chair at the table this year but it may be empty but she will be with us in our hearts and in our heads

She won the local hero award for documenting her travel with cancer

and promting people to get checked

she has saved 100s of lives by doing so

 im proud of her

You are so right Mitch.

 

''but it will never go away'.....................No it will not Jimmy and nor should it mate but the Nat's children will help fill that space as time goes by.
