I'm an unofficial underkeeper, rearing, feeding, working dogs, lamping, shooting, beating/picking up. Living and working in the beautiful Scottish countryside๐ณ
Does the weather not know it's still May, I'm pretty sure I've seen snow in May before ๐คท๐ผโโ๏ธ had to blow up the pool for the dogs and see how long before it bursts ๐คฃ #Hotweather#sunshine#earlysummer#paddlingpoolfordogs
5 months of crazy busy but I'm back! Flitting, lambing, silage, building rearing field and the chicks arrive soon! ๐ฒ one day I will wake up, be a pensioner and wonder where the hell my life went, time is flying by! #livingthedream#gamekeeping#alwaysbusy
Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you all when it comes!! My already spotless dog runs have been getting full use of my Christmas present, my new jet washer making them extra clean and sparkly ๐๐ฟ #kennels#workingdogs#gundogs#gamekeeping
Yesterday was Christmas housework day, thought I had finished but this morning my house looks as bad as ever. I swear this house is a magnet for mess ๐คฃ #Christmas#housework#gamekeeper#Festive#busy
No shoot on today so I am behind a mountain of paperwork pretending I know what I'm doing, I know the computers on this desk somewhere ๐ง #farming#office#ratherbebeating
Sat on the sofa clinging to my previous coffee, staring at my shirt and tweeds on the ironing board trying to muster up the energy to get ready for the shoot day that starts in under 20 minutes ๐คฃโ #shooting#gamekeeping
Autumn leaves are so pretty to look at but a pain in the backside to walk along the steep banks. Photo was taken when I had an accidental sit down, that's my story and I'm sticking to it #shootday#beating#shootinglife#leaves#slippy
Ahhh finally my feet are up, the fires on, giant blanket over me with gin and snacks ๐ I challenge anyone to beat this as the best way to end a busy week of shoot days ๐ฅ #shooting#pheasant#beating#Countryside#gin
Very angry hearing they might Tax Red meat and bacon sausage, whatโs this country coming to , we have food banks in the Uk so taxing the poor . We are importing food thatโs causing environmental meltdown .Get a grip and eat #Local#sustainable#GrassFed#seasonal and #British
The clocks going forward or back whatever it was has messed up my sleep pattern, early bedded then waking up at times like this and cannot get back to sleep ๐ lamping it is then, its the only logical answer ๐คฃ๐ฆ #ClocksBack#cantsleep#vermincontrol#lamping#shooting
So far today all I have done is go out to the dogs and back in for a coffee, need to brave the cold again to check the farm and buy more dog bedding #WinterIsHere#cold
We live a good 5 minutes drive from keepers beat, and there's pheasants in my garden! Maybe I should let the terrier out, she'd soon see they won't wander this far again? Is it so hard to keep off the boundaries??? ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ #doggingin#neverending#gamekeeping#pheasant#wandering
Catching up on #GBBO and as they were doing the results I said if #rahul stays after that shocker then its a fix, seen it coming from day one. (Also I refused to watch lastweeks bullshit vegan week)
