And we are done. 5 days out this week and time for a rest and boot clean tomorrow.

It’s been a beating week so far this week. 3 days out already and another 2 to go with the picking up team. Only another 6 or 7 weeks to go now so making the most of every day.

We’ve gone from snow to sun to gales and rain this week. But the company always makes up for it. From Meg with her damson gin, Andy with his jokes to Greenfox family and Bens fantastic beef stew today. There’s always something to make you smile.

Such a treat being out in the snow. We had such a laugh today!
And I can recommend the New Forest heated gilet. Well worth getting. Kept me toasty warm all day. It’s like wearing an electric blanket!

That’s Leicestershire done. 2 days down, rest tomorrow and then Norfolk on Friday and Saturday. Dogs are rehydrating with electrolytes and I’m having a damson gin!. Wonder who’ll feel the best in the morning!

Big cover crops today. Wish I’d put my leggings on!!

Day off from picking up today. Meeting a different sort of game!

Another new boy day. Weasel has been out for the first time over last couple of days. Drazzagold Resolute is nearly 2 but the steadiest little chap, always watching me and hopefully learning from the rest of the pack. Baby Fig also had a day out in the truck with a quick run around at lunchtime.

A few from this week. Highlights were Jelly’s first proper finds, Nobby out for a day today and even Fig had a run around with the big boys

This little singleton Flinnamrise cocker is going to be a strong lad like his dad Cuckoo (Browfarm Ginger gin)

Jelly’s out. Just starting to let Jelly do some work with the odd easy drive. She’s a real gem and so grateful to Nicola at Eiretilady Gundogs for entrusting her to me. She’s a niece to Silas and cousin to Missy

Spider is back on the team today. Day 2 of 4 this week. Warm and dry today which was a relief after the wet yesterday but great picking up in some thick cover crops.

25/09/2024

Not a good start to the season. We’ve only had 3 days out and Spider is settling well into office life this week. He’s had a small operation on his foot but will be back working in a week or two.

Trip up to Leyburn today to Fosterwold Gundogs to pick up a springer pup with a friend. Lovely to see the dam, Mouse which comes from my old springer line, Moth, Fen, Nova and Tess.
Katie has raised some cracking pups. I’m looking forward to seeing this one grow up with Christian
