That’s a real shame! It was only far too short a time ago that you both embarked on the venture. All the best!

Being forced into something by events outwith your control can have unexpected benefits as well as offering new thresholds to cross.

Seeing as how UK gun ownership and shooting is now on its last teetering legs it is timely to get out of it rather than to be sucked into and smothered by its death throws.

Shooting's loss is sailings gain.

Poultry, for fecks sake, hens are foul.

Go for ducks, at least you can have a relationship with a duck.

COVID gave me the kick up the arse to retire & make my wife’s dream of moving to Devon a reality. I’m 55 & so far loving it, hope you both are as happy as we are. cheers

Sorry to read about your eye issues. Hope things improve dramatically.
Retirement is awesome. I gave up 'proper' work at forty-eight. No regrets.
Enjoy.

Well as the Shootings Sheds first official customer (I think) it's a great pity, all the best for the future

Best wishes

All ways found your posts a fascinating read. Hope your eye picks up soon. I had something very similar, but fortunately in my left eye. I have some idea of the discomfort you must be suffering.
