Fed up

[Enthusiast]

A totally self centred bleat, for which I apologise.

We came back from a wonderful trip to Asia full of new perspective and realising how easy our lives are in comparison with others, I was even pledging to stop moaning about work.

Firstly a number of family commitments ruled me out of any shooting for a while- ok hardly a world stopper.
Then a dear friend died after what appeared to be successful surgery for cancer( the funeral this w/e means I'll miss the SIHFT again, but that is totally selfish of me)

Then I came down yesterday morning to find our beloved, seemingly fit as a fiddle, labrador unconcious on the floor. Despite an emergency trip to the vet he didn't make it. He was such a character and full of beans, the house feels like someone has ripped the soul out of it. It is heartbreaking to see the collie he grew up with searching for him and then looking at me.

God I feel awful.

Sorry, needed to get it off my chest

If it all gets too much for you, jump in the car, get yourself to Portsmouth and over on the ferry to Caen, we're only an hour and a quarters drive south, I'll even take you to the local club where you can teach me how to shoot a rimfire.

Sorry to hear this Richard. Life does deal some awful hands at the most unexpected of times.

I hope things improve soon for you. You are a good guy and deserve so.

Take care.

Charlie.

Sorry to hear what life has dealt you this week - enough to make anyone grumpy at the least!

Hope to see you back around soon!
