    Bugger! Too sad. It certainly hits hard but the memories linger long. My commiserations on the loss of your friend.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    She had had a very good innings for a rescue dog. Had odd "Border Colie" days but excellent dog in most ways, best "stopping" dog I had but could be kept in when hunting deer. This the first time in 40 years I've lost a dog without having another on the way up.

    Sorry mate, never easy losing a family member.
    Good luck with the pup, I suspect there will be the odd time you’re going to think, a puppy, what was I thinking. ��

    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !

    Bugger, condolences. Tough stuff but life goes on for you with memories. I wish you well with your new pup and a new focus.

    My other half has already made those noises, didn't want another dog. Eldest daughter told her "poppa has to have a dog" so I'm in debt to someone.
