Today NOT at work

Was struck down with vomiting and diarrhoea on Saturday night.

Sunday was a write off.

Feeling a little better today and able to be further than 4 seconds from a toilet I took my old truck and the spaniel I'm looking after for a ride across some of the unmade roads across the moors behind the farm.

Bit of snow.
Loads of grouse.
Lots of cold.

The Mrs arrived home tonight in a flurry of snow and vomit so it seems I've successfully passed the lurgy onto her.
The like is for the pics, hope your both feeling better soon.
Me and my Mrs had the same troubles about a fortnight ago, I was ill then she started the day after!! Not fun, just glad the little fella didn’t get it.

I've taken time off from going to work over the Christmas period.
Been doing bits on the farm, few workshop jobs, logging, and a mate and his dad brought over their quads for a play.

Just general dicking around.

The river was swollen with snowmelt.
And it's already deep in places.
Bad idea Chris.
Water in the fuel, engine, engine oil, rear brake, rear diff etc etc...
