I know this is nothing to do with this thread but SL’s post reminded me of it years ago before I had centrefires i used to jump at any opportunity to go out with the foxing lads, it was all still lamp and rifle, one of the lads was an eye shine shooter and everything seemed to be a fox to him, he’d shot cats, hares and deer in the past, one night he took me to one place, where I was the lamp man and he was the shooter, now I didn’t know this land and as I was lamping around I picked up two very bright eyes, I wasn’t sure what it was and the lad took a lot of time looking at it through the

When a mate of mine takes the dog out and his hands are cold he waits for it to have a sh*t, puts it in two separate bags and put them in his pockets, the dirty bast*rd, no idea why he can’t buy himself a pair of gloves

Venison rogan josh for me tonight, fingers crossed after a couple of hours cooking it will just fall apart something out the freezer probably orange and covered in bread crumbs for the missus

Gained a few pounds and grew some hair

Took my hoppers from last night to the shoot and set up a bait station on the ride at the piggeries, all the crop is getting a bit long now for calling them into the fields and I know there’s still one or two about over here, with a bit of luck these will end up been the last supper

I used to love it when I was a kid, even more so if I’d hunted it myself and the old man did a rabbit stew with it, but after years of gutting hundreds of the things I can’t stomach it now, even when cooked I still get the aroma of innards
