How's this for unlucky Alf?
My wife bought me a pop up hide (yeehaa) for christmas and while she popped out to the shop i decided to take it outside and check it out:king: i removed the protective bag and givie it a twist and hey presto! my very own camo hide:king:
I went back inside the house to get my coffee and when i went outside there was my hide flying approx 30ft in the air blowing down our fields:eek!:
so i set off chasing the damn thing through the freshly muck spread fields and everytime i got within 20 ft there goes another gust:C this went on for approx 10mins with me getting more and more angry and saying one or two phrases that wouldn't be out of place on the Gordon Ramsey shows.
I eventually cornered it down at the forest approx 1/2mile form my home and after folding it up set off back up our hill only to be greeted at the top by my neighbour who had her parents staying for Christmas:eek!:
After they had stopped laughing:-O:-O:-O they said "Brilliant stuff wouldn't have missed it for the world" i bid them good day:C and went inside the house to clean mud etc (yuk) off my new hide before her indoors returned.
So anyone thinking of buying a Popup hide please keep a strong grasp on it on a breezy day3
My wife told me to tell you this after she was confronted by the neighbours.
Unlucky Alf or what?
Cheers
