Re: hound fest nth dublin 20/5/12
What a great session we had Alan and as you can see i was chuffed with my first hound. We put in some serious hours chasing the hound the last two weeks
and all came great last night at last.... Now for a bigger one!!!!
Shame you lost that monster one on the rocks.
