It's a beautiful area were I live to be honest Flacko, hate to think how many time ether my mate or myself will stop and take in the surroundings and say something like "you can't buy that". At least I do appreciate it so many don't. As for getting on my bike, I agree. I do have other permissions but they are being knocked off one by one. It's going back to like when I was a youngster, two or three of us would go out all day for a brace. Over the years this got better and better as mixie got weaker and weaker till a peak about 5 years ago. Numbers have been dropping year on year. Ch

I can see the theory but would be imposable, so many holes in the middle of thick hedges as well as open ground burrows etc, thousands of them. With this farm and the one next door ( also one of my perms) which has RHD must be close to 1000 acres. Cheers Arry

I was saying the same thing myself about two years ago when the subject came up. It can live in the ground for 9 months I believe so if a rabbit enters the burrow where an infected one has been it all starts again. Already done the car will do all the net pegs as they have been stuck in the ground around the burrows, but you are right it's very contagious. The farmer has other ground that he will move cattle to from time to time, this sort of thing along with Foxes, Badgers ,bird of prey, dog walkers horses and green lane scramble bikes I believe all help spread this blood disease.

I have other ground but I'm very fond of these steeps usually do them first in the season and woods while waiting for the hedges to lose their leafs and die back. Cheers Arry

No mate could do with one, had JR's for about 40 years and when the last one went it broke the wife heart and she is adamant no more dogs. The last one took home told her somebody dumped it and she fell in love with it, don't think it would work again. Lol. To be honest a good marking dog would be worth it's weight to me. Today was strange ferrets hanging around not acting right and burrows look okay, but think maybe fresh dead rabbits in ground. Had rain nearly all week last week though I was getting cabin fever, Lol. Was great to get out today but such a shame we have so many years rabb

Today down on the side of the river Dart it was beautiful, ferrets where in so took a couple of shots on my phone. No rabbits something is wrong, after a chat with the farmer RHD. He has seen dead rabbits just laid around. Gutted been doing this permission for over fifty years. Cheers Arry

Like you I get well pissed off if you get a meal in a restaurant and you know you could do better your self. On the other hand there is a Pub that I go to for an evening meal when I can't be assed to cook that servers up good Pug grub with good ale and friendly banter. Some so called restaurants I've tried should not even be in business. I'm not one for tiny tarted up twee stuff, I much prefer something wholesome were you don't go home and want a sandwich afterwards. Got say that place look the biz. Cheers Arry

Smart looking knife mate, well impressed. Cheers Arry

I have them in my garden, I put left over ferret food I a bowl under the ferret hutch and all through the summer months they come ever night. Also cut little hole in my gate and the sole board of my fence so they can travel. I put some photos up think it was last year when two were squabbling up the top of my garden, what weird din they were making. Used to see them in the fields years ago when out lamping but not now think the Badgers take them out, too many of them about here. Cheers Arry

Very contagious and very sad. I read somewhere that one hair could be enough to spread it, also lives in the ground for nine months. So if a rabbit goes into a burrow that a RHD that rabbit used, it will die and the nine months will start again. I think it was spread around here in places by horses and green laning bikes using the green lanes. Cheers Arry

The bowl of water was in the sink, put bleach on my hands and it turn purple and dripped into the water which made the water purple as well. It must be some chemical reaction with the tanning or other stuff in the husk sap. Quite shocking I was not ready for that. Cheers Arry

At least the poison dwarf goes today. Cheers Arry

I even tried that and the water went bright purple Lol. Cheers Arry

Well out ferreting the other day came across a Black Walnut tree with loads of nuts fallen and still on the tree. Well they have a green husk that quickly goes black as it's full of tanning and other shit, well read up on it and you have to remove the husk. Did this and just blasted them with a power washer but Lol you see my hands, they are stained to f**k looks like I have frost bite. They are very different looking than an English walnut, hope they taste nice after all this trouble. If any body knows a good way to remove the stain please tell. On line it said Lemon juice and salt, well
