Funny.
We are sweating out a hot summer in Australia and Nath is braving the cold winds of our motherland.
Sure must have been a big thing in it's day, that British Empire.
Pop.
PS - always love you photo's Nath. We are long lost cousins after all.
Nath, we know that you are tough and hardy, plus a great hunter. Was it too cold for your pooch? Where are the gloves?!!! You are definitely an inspiration, a very positive one.

Tia is semi retired sir. The glove are off to fiddle with the camera.
I know we don't have it as cold as most but I feel it!
I suffer with psoriasis and the cold causes agony sometimes.
Another snap.
Gents, times have changed over here. I am no longer in possession of a levergun!
A levergun nut I am but due to losing some good open space good enough to throw 357 nuggets around I now have to go where there are lots of walkers and horses. I have down sized considerably. Now don't fret! The front loaders are staying, the Mrs says when I clean them it makes me smell better
I am actually finding many a good reason to throttle back some as my faith builds in God!
Take my friends.
Nath yer killing me with pics of flints and smooth bores
30/30 Winchester: Not accurate enough fer varmints, barely adequate for small deer; BUT In a 10" to 14" barrelled pistol; is good for moose/elk to 200 yards; ground squirrels to 300 metres
250 Savage... its what the 223 wishes it could be...!
Nath, you make England look like a hunter's paradise and you make us jealous with the amount you get out and about. But most of all you make me smile with the comment from your wife about black powder fouling improving your odor.
Just out of curiosity,what is that odd looking tree behind you?
"Knowledge without understanding is a dangerous thing. For a little knowledge entices us to walk its path, a bit more provides the foundation on which we take our stand, and a sufficient amount can erect a wall of knowledge around us, trapping us in our own ignorance."

It is an English oak. It looks like plenty may of been nailed to it over the years! It was very busy around here years ago. A sand and gravel quarry is near by!

Yes sir, but have opted for less intensity rounds. 22lr of course but now also have a CZ American on the way in 22wmr.
Nath you are something else. Oh by the way I added a Marlin CL 32-20 to my lever rifles today....... It is a shame for you to loose out on leverguns! I hate to hear it....

Great photos. I especially like the one of you tipping your hat.

Kirk! Was just wondering how you all are?
Thank you. I do hope you are all well.

Too busy, Nath, but doing great.
