I'm spending loads on shooting and .........................

I'm divorced - I get to do what I want without having to explain. :)

I'm doing the garden today and not going to the range.
Through choice, no really it is *sigh*

You have three options here .

1 . Develop an unhealthy interest in football . It must be a team that will play at least 6 matches away in Europe .

2 . Take up golf . Not crazy golf or a council run course , but a semi exclusive club that offers fine dining and at least 50 different brands of single malt in the bar .

3 . Find a mistress . It must be one who will not tolerate meeting in a Travellodge , or a quiet layby , but wants 5* hotels , customised french underwear and an option on a small apartment .

When you explain to your other half how expensive these new hobbies could be , she will encourage you to get more involved in shooting and buying more equipment .

So long as the family doesn't go without the necessities then there's no other reason why you can't spend your money on what you want.

My wife wouldn't have a clue how much any of my kit costs - I'm sure there'll be some bargains on Ebay when I eventually shuffle off. Keep you eye out - you might see a half decent scope or two come up for £40 :)

That's funny because as far as the Mrs knows all the parcels and packages that come for me are "all 99p bargains off Ebay love....nobody else bid on it!"

my missus offered to buy me a new shotgun for my birthday .......

You lads just ain't doing it right.

My lovely "Boss" just bought me a new Wildcat Evolution for my up-coming birthday.

Surely you mean bespoke? Customised suggests alterations, perhaps to fit something not mean't to be in there in the first place. Unless you are suggesting Gazza finds a ladyboy?

Unless you are suggesting Gazza finds a ladyboy?

Is there some sort of Freudian psychology going on here? am I getting programmed?

The thing is when I read Mistagains original post I thought it actually said "a quiet ladyboy"

Jesus H.....I'm off to the shed to thrash myself with something prickly
