    "Breathe out slowly, and squeeze, don't pull the trigger!"......on vermin destruction.

    "always plan where your gunna crash"..:eek: on driving lessons

    he had the regular when I got home from school "did you get 6 of the best today?"...I never told him when I did

    he also taught me as 6 year old that after you have set fire to 40 acres of bush you wont be able to sit down for a week....I had a short career as a firebug.

    "never put anything smaller than your elbow in your ear". I couldn't work out how to get my elbow in my ear.

    "it is better to let some go through to the keeper"........I wish I had taken his advice.

    "sink the red and let the white run".......I think he was talking about games we played at the pub on the table with the green felt.

    and about someone who did something he thought was pretty stupid "he must have 2, he couldn't be that stupid just playing with one"

    When teaching me woodwork - "Don't cut yourself on a chisel - it rusts the blade"
    When teaching me the facts of life - "Always leave your clothes between her bed and the best escape"
    When teaching me to drive - "Never swerve to avoid anything smaller than a child"
    Cheers

    Stay away from slow horses and fast women and you'll have no fun at all.
    There's a boat inside me trying to get out.
    Was it something I ate?
