Vermin Control
Old guy who used to live near me he was called Hartley and was as eccentric as his name . He had a massive garden with loads of trees he hated squirrels with passion. He built his own traps and used to catch loads. He would then gas them in his garage with a pipe attached to the exhaust of a triumph stag. He was a bit of a one off that lad

Meanwhile In England
If "our/your" NHS is as we are led to believe " the envy of the world" than why has our health care model never been adopted by another similar nation.

Sorry for your loss pal they just arnt around long enough are they. My daft fucker was in the north sea with me yesterday. He was like a pup. I knew he was doing to much but there iwas no stopping him.,he has struggled today and slept most of it And limped through the rest. Well until the barbie went on and then it was like he was on whizz. . Take care

He has decided in the last year or so that being groomed is not for him , it is easier and less of a risk to life to just leave him be. The result is what you see. A sort of collie afro.

This is my old lad , he is on what I reckon will be his last big adventure ( although I've said this before). He is still full of beans but his body is slowing him down and he is not the lad he was. I still love the mad fucker though.

Who misses their dad?
Lost my old man ,when I was 21 he was 44 . I thought he was old,it was only as I got older and had my own kids that I realised how young he was and how much of life lay before him. He never knew me as a real adult ,we never got to share adult experiences , I never got to chew the fat with him or go to him for the advice that only a dad could give .He never got to see me or my sister become parents and he never got to meet any of his 4 grand kids .I dont really miss him because it feels almost like I never had him and apart from the night he passed the memories are fading . I just wish he could have been around a bit longer

Knee Injuries
How have u found it since. I think overall mine has been well worth it. Although the post op lay up was hard. Did they leave your plates in . I couldnt live with mine and they took em out a couple years after initial op.

Knee Injuries
Simple advice but for obvious reasons keeping on top of weight is key along with some dietary changes to help reduce inflammation. Im active as fuck now and a few stone lighter than I was. Eventually my left knee will pack in and il have to look into a replacement. Thing is they aren't new knees they are a shitty hinge the only benefit is you end up pain free. As fucked as they are il be keeping hold of mine as long as I can. Good luck with the recovery and dont do to much . I tore mine again 4 months after my first operation

Knee Injuries
Ive had 3 meniscus ops on left leg. Ended up with bone on bone arthritis and was in constant pain. At 49 I was considered to young for a knee replacement so was offered a "high tibial osteotomy" which is a brutal procedure that realigns your leg to wear out the opposite side of your knee. It is a long recovery, I was off work nearly a year. But 9 yrs on and its holding up well. When they offer you meniscus surgery they tell you you may develop arthritis within 10 years. I haven't met anyone who has had a cartilage trim that hasn't gone on to develop it. Knees are fucking shit

Sorry to hear about this. Fucking brutal. My lad is nearly 15 and doing OK. I cant bear the thought of losing him but I know its coming. Losing one like you have must be devastating. He was a beautiful lad similar looking to mine. Collies are the greatest arnt they. Take care.
