How well can Wilbur use it? biggrin
He’s very capable, and articulate with his paws, to the extent he can hold things between them, but most shoes, chew toys and balls.

But a portable jet washer, basically no! smile
Epically frivolous though sir, well played! smile
Cheers Ears.

Funko Pops.

I've always said that I should never start down the dark, dark road of collecting Pops as it'd lead to an unhealthy addiction to spending money on utter sh*t that nobody needs. However, having said that, somebody gave me my first Pop for Christmas.

I now have 37 of them. I need help. Please, get me help.

A £20 paw scrubber would have sufficed.

I got this instead.

It’s Ace!

I'm going to try a cup style paw washer, but she gets sooo dirty, the pressure washer with warm water might be a better idea.

She hates the cold water hose when she gets home.

I need to stop going to auctions:

3 Hammer Action shotguns
A larger gun cabinet
A box full of knives and trailcams
A print of a spitfire
Some other random tat

None of the above is needed, or particularly wanted. It was cheap though biggrin

If u want rid of a trail am or 2 let me know. I’ve been looking at getting a couple to see what’s running round at the bottom of our fields.

Nice knife too

The really crappy gun at the top was a tenner. The other two were about £60 each I think.

There are a couple of nice knives - I think I paid a tenner for five of them.

Geoff is killing me! I have to put a cable down around the garden so he doesn’t run off and cut the neighbors garden/swimming pool. Due to the complexity of my garden it has taken hours and my back is killing me.

If the goal was to do less gardening I have gone from doing nothing to doing a ton and paying a load of money for the tools to automate.

Mission status currently failure.
Geoff appears to have a cousin at the Tower of London.

Regularly see it pottering about cutting the grass.

Two of them seem perfectly servicable - the third is more rust that gun, but it has character. I'm a sucker for Damascus barrels though!

I've also avoided them for mostly similar reasons. That is impressive though hehe

PS. This post is worthless etc

I helped our local comics/games store move to a larger premises the other week.

Shifted a good few hundred of the bloody things (Funko Pops) - that put paid to any lingering thoughts of starting to buy any!

Exactly the same as Wilbur. He used to run from me in the garden. Wirh the hose. Of course the water in it is freezing so who can blame him!

With this washer I just fill it up,with hot water from the tap when we set off, as it’s a plastic water compartment it seems to stay very warm, warm enough to be still warm after a 40+ minute walk in the woods.

Yes it’s true, Wilbur is a spoilt brat!
