New Landlord at the Filly Inn

Whilst on holiday at Brockenhurst in the New forest, we had a nice meal in the local pub, which had just changed hands, it was quite spooky as the new publican really reminds me of someone I used to be friends with! He was a really nice bloke if a little forgetful, he kept pouring pints and forgetting the glass, perhaps it's his age.

Goodbye Marsland Windows

I've been contracted by my old boss to clear out and ready his building for rent! While I was taking down the old firms lettering from the front of the building, I had a bit of fun, thought you might like to see, hope no-one is offended.



Made me laugh but then I'am simple!

I KNOW WHAT YOU DID THIS SUMMER


FOR OUR TWO WEEKS STAY IN THE CARAVAN
WE WENT TO CORNWALL WITH MAC AND DAN.

WE STAYED ON A CAMPSITE AND THE DOGS CAME ALONG
BUT, DAN WAS’NT HAPPY WITH THE PITCH HE WAS ON.
ITS GOT LOTS OF HOLES, HE SAID TO MAC
AND WHEN HE BENT OVER WE ALL SAW THAT CRACK!

WE WENT FOR A MEAL AND DAN LOST HIS CROWN
AND HE WENT TO BED WHEN THE SUN WENT DOWN.
TRACEY GOT BIT ON HER FOOT BY A GNAT
AND HER ANKLE SWELLED UP AND LOOKED RATHER FAT

THE WEATHER WAS GOOD AND THE SUN IT SHONE
AND ALAN KEPT SINGING THAT ANNOYING SONG
DON’T KEEP SINGING IT, TRACEY SAID
AS SHE HUMMED IT ALL NIGHT WHILE SHE SLEPT IN HER BED.

WE HAD LOTS OF BARBIES, DRANK WINE AND BEER
AND WENT INTO TOWN AND BOUGHT LOTS OF GEAR.
WE ATE PASTIES, CREAM TEAS AND FISH IN BATTER
AND THEN WONDERED WHY WE WERE ALL GETTING FATTER!

LANDS END WAS EXPENSIVE TO PARK THE VAN
AND WE ALL WAVED TO “THE LITTLE MAN IN THE BOAT” JUST FOR DAN

WE PLAYED PITCH AND PUTT, AT HOLE SEVEN TRACEY QUIT
AND ALAN DISAPPEARED IN THE BUSHES FOR A “TOM TIT”.

THE SEALS AT GODREVY SHOWED THEIRSELVES IN THE SEA
AND AT HAYLE ON THE BEACH, DAN AND AL HAD A PEE.

PENZANCE, THE LIZARD AND ST IVES AT NIGHT
THE OLD MINES AND HELLS MOUTH WHICH GAVE TRACEY A FRIGHT!

WE WALKED ACROSS THE CAUSEWAY TO ST MICHAELS MOUNT
AND AT EIGHT O’CLOCK THAT NIGHT DAN WAS OUT FOR THE COUNT!

THE MINNACK THEATRE WAS BREATHTAKING
AND WE SAT STARING OUT AT IT ALL
WE FINALLY DRAGGED OURSELVES AWAY
ON THE WAY BACK WE STOPPED AT MOUSEHOLE.

AND SO ENDS OUR FORTNIGHT HOLIDAY
A GOOD TIME WAS HAD BY ALL
OH LOOK! DAN’S GOT HIS PACKING UP HEAD ON
WE’RE GOING HOME SO GOODBYE TO CORNWALL.

Holiday 2009

This year we went to Cornwall, with Alan & Tracey, near St Michaels Mount.




This one is on the beach at Lizard point where we had just bumped into some other agility folk!




Here's Tig up to his midrift in the lagoon at Hayle beach, he doesn't normally like the water, as it messes up his do! As you can see the weather was superb, we were very lucky.




This is Jess who disappeared down a gully on Porthleven harbour and reappeared with a ball, she has an uncanny knack of doing that and whilst on holiday found five balls in a variety of places

Tired Tigger

Clearly life has been a bit tiring for Tig of late, so here he is taking a well earned nap in his favorite place in the garden!

Tig Wins out of Grade 3, Tidy

Tig won the Large Grade 3 Agility pt1 at Tunbridge Wells on Sunday, I'm well pleased, I won't lie to you, Crackin'.

Also well done to Mac & Jess ninth place in Grade 5 Agility & three other clear rounds, good job first show back for ages, Genuine.

Bye Bye Chopsie

On Tuesday Mac lost her pet "wild" rabbit chopsie who we had had since she was tiny, she came to us via Leah who was asked to help by Liz Catt, she was found by the roadside nearly dead and covered in tar, what a lovely little thing she was, very cuddly and she loved human contact and to have her ears stroked, she went very suddenly and our vet thinks it was a parasite!! the dogs all miss her as they used to sit and watch her for hours, silly how you can fall in love with a rabbit but there you go, we'll miss her.

Bye Bye Baa Baa

Baa Baa with Sophie


This morning the vet had to put poor old Baa Baa to sleep, the vet said she was about 12 yrs old which is a good age for a sheep!, Mac loved Baa and Laura was so kind to agree to keep her after Mac found her about four years ago wandering in the road. She lived a very happy life with Laura's horses, She will be missed by Mac, Laura, Sophie & Toffee.

Woody & Goldy

Gis a Job

After nineteen years and two weeks, I find myself on the Dole for the first time in my life!!, I have an appointment on Monday at the job centre where I have to go to see if after paying approximately £140,000 in income tax over my working life i can claim £60 a week. God life is good. I will have to wait for approx two months for my pittance of redundancy (government maximum)payment. In the mean time Mr Abbey will still be wanting his mortgage paying.I feel really sorry for all the other good people at my old company who also lost ther jobs, especially my lads from the factory floor, and i wish them a speedy return to work. Thats it Whinge over.

New Derby (clutch to you and me) cover

fitted my new derby cover dark custom style, it looks great!

Tig's 2008 rossettes

We found life in grade 3 to be really tough this year, and only managed fouth place or lower, where as we had a brilliant year in 2007, still we've been quite consistent and if we get a clear we're nearly always top ten, so we have to drill our contacts all winter and be ready for 2009!

New Loud Rush Pipes on "The Bob"

I picked these new pipes up from the dealer and fitted them myself, they sound great and look ok they are quite a bit slimmer than the old ones but are also about four inches longer, and unfortunately the brackets don't line up properly, so I had to take them back off again, and take back to Shaw HD, they're gonna have a go and I'll have to wait and see what happens, I can't get the bike down there until this foul weather clears up a bit. So far the old girl only has 64 miles on the clock!! in five weeks.

Please Santa (Mac) I want one
