If I lean the Sako on the side of a tree, and it slips and falls on the ground, I'll curse myself, but I'll pick it up, brush off the leaves, snow, and mud, and continue on with my day.
As I leaned my mums .22 single shot Lithgow rifle against a tree as an 8-10 year old one day my old man said to me "if you lay it down it cannot fall any further"
Sage words that have stayed with me for life,only on the rarest of occasions do I err from that teaching.
