All in the name of freedom, adventure and a more honest relationship with my dinner.

[Smirking] SBW: With a high-velocity rifle.
Honestly. Not much of this would have happened without you dear reader, some of you have actually stuck with it and read every post, some of you have written blogs of your own, a few of you I've actually met. I can honestly say blogging is the best thing I've ever done, I cant even begin to express how much it's sustained me during the dark times, how cool I've seen myself look in some peoples eyes and just how great it is to have a little bit of inner space where I can speak to you in the voice of SBW.
I could make a long list, a roll of honor of the bloggers I've emailed with and or met, and try to thank you all individually but I'd be mortified if I missed anyone out. I've loved every minute of it. It's meant more to me than I can say.
More soon

Soppy git.
But seriously you look a bit like Jason statham in that picture-well done. Kelly brook might come round all confused and needy.
500 eh, who'd have thought it? Mind I wasn't aware that it was easily countable!
Anyway enough of the small talk and the Tea Lady and I are glad if any help we gave worked out!
Looking forward to seeing you again soon mucker!
Congratulationa SBW and thanks for a consistently good read
Regards
Hippo
Glad to be getting to know you, dinner party pariah. ;-)

Soppy AKA tired and emotional, me and the Ex Mrs SBW have been having one of our 'episodes' - honestly i'd use her a bait if the kids weren't so fond of her!

Your help has been invaluable, and I'd be a lot thinner by now if it wasn't for the Tea Lady. Now that I'm persona non grata at the Ex Mrs SBW's place I'll have a lot more free time! As opposed to time I spend working for free.

As a massive fan of your writing that means an awful lot to me. PS have you tried deleting the cache in your browser? It may help.

Just as every meeting needs at least one person banging their fist on the table, It's not really a dinner party unless someone takes the hump is it?
SBW
Congratulations SBW! Keep up the great work and keep sharing your journey!

Cheers chap, I'm really enjoying your blog too, race you to a thou!
SBW
Good work, keep it up, and you will get that elk hunt yet.
Congrats! I thoroughly enjoy this blog. Keep it up man!!

Congratulations! 500 posts and I've enjoyed them all. Thanks for the great reads.
Chas
Thanks very much, even though i dont comment that often I read all your posts - so you i will not be challenging to a race to a thousand posts!
The whole Elk thing is actually looking a bit tricky, I was expecting to take him in Finland but while smaller game seems no problem at all the Elk maybe have more legal hoops to be jumped through for bowhunting.
Still we'll see

good to see you sticking around after all this time, thanks for the kind words of encouragement. There are many more posts in the pipeline, and I have plans in motion with two other bloggers to go on mini-safaris in the near future.

Thanks man, your blog is one of my favorite reads I'm always excited when I see your name in my RSS feeds, so i'm stoked that you still bother to tune in.
SBW
Bushwacker -- it's all your fault.

Hey, congratulations !
I hope you keep on writing more and more, althugh i know that sometimes its hard to find time, or sometimes men just dont have anything to share for readers. I am on that now, i havent done anything special to write about. Few knives in progress, one backpack in progress etc but other than that, ive been just living silently.
Hoping to meet you face to face,
M.
Congrats SBW. I've been at it almost 2 yrs and can't boast anywhere near 500 posts. Keep 'em rolling.
Congrats SBW. Much water has passed under the bridge and I am priviledged to have been with you most of the way. In fact I think I commented on your second ever post. I even remember winning some of Mom of SBW kick-ass jam!
We have yet to meet which I am sure will be rectified in the coming year.
All the best for the season.
LSP

Spotted, Bushwhacker!
You must come and visit Texas -- maybe we can go out against the hogs... at the very least make a lot of noise in the countryside. You'd enjoy the dinner parties too.
Merry Christmas.
Thanks Dan

that visit to the shooting school is still on my mind - i wonder what they'd make of the original odd couple turning up?
SBW
Excellent work. Keep it Going
WOW! After several attempts to try and follow your blog ( last time I was computer-literate, the Commodore 64 was king ) I have achieved success!
My last post to you was signed " MCCOOBS Manitoba, Canada" Should have read Greetings FROM : MCCOOBS, from Manitoba, Canada! lol.
I like your Blog as it comes across as honest, non-pretentious and far from "preachy" - and you do NOT seem to present yourself as an "expert" You know what you know, and that is what you know...
I'm a bitlong-winded I know, but... praise is always nice to recieve.. :)
McCoobs
Thanks for making the effort and for your kind words - praise is indeed always nice to receive!
Keep well
SBW
