At least there is enough still about to build up in summer, it’s when you don’t see any at all that you know your really struggling.
-
Definitely, I don’t really care about the money. I would happily give them away to decent people. Anyone who would want a few for themselves, friends, dog or ferrets send me a message. Most important thing really is that they aren’t going to waste. I am not talking dozens as numbers are down quite a bit round here thanks to RVHD2 but freezer is full and I can only use/give away so many.

Thanks for all the replies lads ??. I will ask around pubs etc, butcher was ill yesterday so he just text saying he can’t take him but will speak to him when he is better and ask exactly what the rule is etc and what needs to be done.

Sussex, used to have a few places that took them but local game dealer isn’t around anymore and next nearest one is miles away.
-
I am really not worried about getting anything for them just don’t want them to go to waste, unfortunately I don’t really know anyone that would want them. The odd one but not enough, hence the butcher.

Evening ladies and gents, i have been selling ferreted rabbits to my local butcher for a while (not serious numbers the odd half a dozen here and there when I have enough spare) but today he said he can’t take them any more as environmental health have changed the law on game. I have googled it and can’t find anything but has anyone got any information on the most update laws and does anyone know if it is possible to get around this?? I don’t catch loads but I only need so many for myself and hate the thought of waste especially as the butcher sells them no problem at all and is keen to t

For all Boris faults and the lies etc this Labour Party and there racist extremist leader are a very real danger to everyone in this country. Do you know who the last anti Semitic party to be voted into power were??? Happened in the 1930’s with some pretty awful results....Corbyn consistently supports the Uk’s enemies and has done his entire life. If you’ve never done it before but you love your country vote conservative. If you support brexit but never vote conservatives normally lend them your vote this once (don’t waste it on the Brexit party). If you want to see an economy which keep

Cue everyone flocking there this weekend!! ??

Legend of the game and a great commentator never afraid to speak his mind. RIP Bob.

From what I have read and seen there are good numbers in spots but even in the dales etc a lot of lads I speak to are getting less than before. I think the mortality rate varies also, I read an extremely interesting scientific paper on the effects of RVHD2 in rabbits (if your interested in that kind of thing!) and it said mortality rates varied from 5 to 95% so if your unlucky you lose pretty much the whole population if your lucky it almost has no effect at all.
-
I don’t think there’s any doubt that RVHD was introduced deliberately (as was mixi) I have little doubt that in another 20,30,40,50 years or however long it will take the humble but tenacious coney to reproduce to plague levels again that man will stick his nasty little oar in again and knock him back once more. I found a couple of dead rabbits at the weekend that were 99% likely to be RVHD victims and I have no doubt that this is the cause of the decline. Hopefully though like with mixi they will develop immunity and numbers will rise as well...they breed like rabbits!

Stop bloody bragging ??. Enjoy it whilst you can, lucky bugger!

Dorset poacher caught hefty sentence

What a load of bollox what is the world coming to? Game is completely ruined. -
Every single person thinking of voting labour should watch that entire interview and then tell me they can still vote labour. An absolute unmitigated car crash, a real election losing day. Sandymere come on, no more nonsense clips just watch that interview and tell me how you could support that man as our prime minister. Boris May have flaws but wow....that’s was epically bad

Couldn’t agree more but the whole programme was a designed to get him to slip up and make headlines which he avoided. Thought it was quite good when the lady asked him about waspi pensions and he just apologised and said I am afraid there isn’t enough money rather than gave her a bullshit answer about looking it or something. Contrast Corbyn next day suddenly pledges another 58 billion out of thin air to sort it that wasn’t in there manifesto and no word of how he will pay for it, that’s right more of our taxes or more unsustainable borrowing. If you want brexit (in an even half sensible

That programme was a farce, Boris was completely stitched up by the audience, the host, the bbc in general. The audience were all pro remain and lots of students and Scots, Boris actually did ok.
-
I think in general there is a not a county in the UK that hasn’t seen numbers dropping over the last 3/5 years. I am fairly sure that it is RVHD2 that has done it, it obviously has hit some areas harder than others but I have researched it through the spread in domestic rabbits and it’s is definitely now nationwide. The promising thing from a hunters view point is that the majority of areas seem to have some rabbits left unlike after mixi struck which from what I’ve read wiped out 99% of rabbits almost overnight. Rabbits being rabbits they will recover and develop immunity (they are one of na

Well done mate, come on lads the remainers are trying to stitch up democracy with tactical voting let’s play them at there own game.
-
Agreed on fake news same as selling the NHS it’s just fake news, but read the manifesto and labour WILL keep free movement if they win and will keep us in a customs union whatever happens with brexit which will keep free movement.
-
?. They hate and disrespect every leave voter. Traitors to the people they supposedly represent.
-
If this isn’t a list of reasons NOT to vote labour I don’t know what is. Sandymere I would love you to actually write a sensible informed post with actual views as to why anyone should vote labour rather than just repost guardian and momentum partisan nonsense with no basis other than here say and conjecture. I am completely bored of Jeremy Corbyn banging on about Boris selling the NHS when there is not a single shred of evidence that the Tory’s have any intention to do so. For anyone that voted leave have you seen Corbyn would give another referendum between....remain and remain ??. You
