First time using a Garden appliance with a choke on it.

Why wasn’t there a bit in school for this

Turned out fine. Chris 1, Connifer 0.

Destroyed plasterboard with a massive hammer, up a ladder, on stairs.

DE ‘safety’ razor.

Fell through the ceiling when fumbling about in loft… 😳

SDS chisel drill. Got a massive block that used to hold up a washing line to do as well 😀

All of you, Seadog?

Killed a wild pig with a knife. Sorry vegetarians but it was delicious.

Bloody hell. Pigs are carrying knives now?

Knocked down 2 sheds and spent 4 days painting a fence – proper Gnarr

All of you, Seadog?

I was most displeased by Old Man John next door calling “Y’ill no need thi’ choke noo, son, motors hot Innit” over the fence. As if he was listening to the soundtrack of my flourishing masculinity.

As if I didn’t already know the proprietary function of a “Choke”…… 😥

Wild?
I bet it was livid

I laid some turf at the weekend – not sure whether Ray Mears has ever done a show on it though

Cut a steerer tube with an angle grinder

NZCol for the win! The rest of you are a bunch of fannies. 🙄

Made my own balsamic glaze.

Pigs was last year along with the bacon and hams.
Not gone through a ceiling but ticked most of the rest.
Fitted my own tow bar?

Ordered a skip.

Nearly all of me. Proper comedy moment, with me hanging onto the joists by my armpits, and my legs thrashing in free space. Mrs Seadog did not see the funny side of the situation.

Morris dancing.

Aren’t bacon and hams already dead?

She was in the loft with you?

Hanging too, next joist along.

What’s pink and hard?

A pig with a flick knife

Don’t know if ‘manly’, but many out of my comfort zone:

Lived in a tent for over a year
Cold showers all winter
Shaved with a blade
Wrestled sheep in all weather on concrete (harder than it sounds, hernia country)
Held a live cow’s steaming prolapsed guts aloft for about 15 mins while the vet stuffed them back in.
Fought a marauding male alpaca (I lost, gored arm and hurt pride) who didn’t wish at all to be removed from his biatchiz. thos things can run like a horse, but they run AT you…!
Kayaked 2 miles sitting without a seat (try it one day)
Fixed a nasty wound with superglue and tape

ordered a skip
filled skip with the use of a shovel and wheelbarrow only
had 4 x bulk bags delivered
bought a chainsaw

Dont know what to do with all this testosterone now

Bought a socket set, took things out of the engine of my van, fixed it, and put it back together. The fix worked too. Win.

Of course talking about it immediately nulls the manliness! I know farmers who do all this stuff every day and never mention it. In fact they don’t talk, except in whistles and whoops. I’m a right Jessy.

Jumped over a back wall escaping an angry barman

Malvern Rider – Elgar Avenue sounds like it’s getting rougher by the day!

Me: Ride a “proper” motorbike on my own without an instructor or tester nearby.

This is just the start, there are so many more manly things to do now eg drop the bike on an incline in the middle of no where and have to pick up 250kg on a 20 degree slope!

She was in the loft with you?

She was in the bedroom below (daughter Seadog’s) saying things the likes of which I have never heard, and do not wish to hear ever again.

Taught people to dance. 😕

well, all of this testosterone will be making the ladies of STW swoon.

Reading your claims, I must confess to being a complete girls blouse. Only MrsMC has gone through a ceiling. Our Christmas present to each other last year was getting it fixed.

You send your wife into the attic to catch the rats?

Put a shelf up.

if we are counting within the last year or so as ‘recent’ then

Delivering a baby at home just me and the wife doing the actual hard part

thanks to the midwife who didn’t time contractions properly and then decided to leave 🙄 😀

my task for this year is build a pizza oven

I was complimented by a tradesman at the quality of my prep work for a bathroom refit.

funny thread.

Built a patio which was a lot of digging (Margate beach ’82-88 was good practice), shifting 6 tonnes of gravel and sand, stone cutting, screeding, laying & mortaring. Loved it.

Next up, petrol-powered landscaping tools. Grrrrrrrr.

my task for this year is build a pizza oven

Last year a bun in the oven, this year pizza.

On Thursday I’m going to drink too much strong lager, start a fight, and make inappropriate sexist comments to any one in spitting distance ( will try to spit as well) in my local just to join in…

Very manly
