    Paintballing

    Merry Christmas everyone!
    Paintballing, it's like marmite... love it or hate it! Me, I love to be able to get out there and blat a few balls of paint at whoever stands against me... as well as receiving however many rounds back at me! Lol
    SWMBO treated me to my very own weapon which I'm excited to get out there and try!

              I had the chance to try it some years ago in Croatia. Too hot and too hungover though. After over 16 years in the army running around with live rounds, it wouldn't have been the same.......................Now I'm just old!!!

                I thought that once you were a pongo, you'd always be a pongo?!
                Never too old to run around and shoot people... again legally! Haha
