Chilli tomato, baked egg with a bit of garlic bread ? the missus had a fish finger sandwich ?

Stay safe, it’s looks like a wild one
-
Nice post that, I’ll keep my eyes open for more from yourself ?

Top side beef joint, pot roasted in beef stock, veg stock, thyme, shallots, carrots, tomato purée, black pepper corns ( that lot turned into gravy) cream mash potato, rosemary, thyme and garlic roast spuds, sage and black pepper yorkie puds and a bit of veg, worth the effort but I’ve wrecked the kitchen ?

You’ve had another good day out there, it was bloody warm yesterday, perfect for topping my council tan up ?
-
Oh dear, the croc’s are bad enough but to top them off with some socks pulled half way up your legs is horrific ? I bet you finished the look off with a pair of budgie smugglers ?

Feeding time at the pheasant zoo again, this good weather is making a big difference, they are quiet and happy, taking feed and enjoying the sunshine, with the pens being dry they are able to dust themselves and really do look better for it, as the birds are a little older than when they normally go in they have no problem hopping the wire, this isn’t a big problem as they are roosting in and around the pen as they know where they live now, the pens are starting to stink a bit but as they are dry I’ll just keep an eye on them I can’t think of anywhere else I’d rather be on a day like thi

It’s the Tarzan of fox callers ?

Everything down at the shoot now and with the birds in it’s time to put a bit of effort in on the gingers, first off we started over the piggeries within 15 minutes we had one trotting in towards the rabbit death call, stopping broad side at around 75 yards, another new vixen a good bit smaller than the one on Wednesday night, giving it another 20 minutes we seen one more moving along the caravan park fence, with no chance of a shot we moved on to the bottom of the field at the back of the farm. As soon as we got there I spotted 4 deer through the thermal, looking through the NV there was 2 fa

Yeah, write up to come when I eventually get home ?

Doing my bit at the shoot, just the one for tonight ?
-
Good luck ??

It’s got nowt to do with my ability with a shotgun ( or lack of) and everything to do with me being a fantastic human and a all round good egg ?
-
Little heads up for a program on the idiot box tonight It’s on at 7, fantastic foxes : their secret world, it could be worth a watch ?
-
I’m the same, game bird shooting doesn’t interest me at all, I might have a go now and then on one of the good drives, or if I haven’t got a guest on that day, I mainly give my shoot days away, sometimes for other shooting ( foxes, deer, rabbits) in different places and sometimes just because I’m a bloody nice chap ?

It a sub woooofer mate, in my younger days that would of been in the boot of my XR2 ?
-
Maybe ? or maybe he’s just a lazy tw*t who’s more bothered about taking pictures and telling everyone who’ll listen that he’s Billy big bollock’s the ultimate keeper ?
-
I’m really pleased with them, I’d be even happier if people would do what was asked of them, one of the other members was told to fill the mobile drinkers, but never bothered, they were all bone dry when I went up, it’s things like this that could mess it up, all because he just wants to walk around with his lad, taking pictures and putting them on Facebook telling people he’s a gamekeeper ?

Birds have been in a couple of days now and have settled well, they are very quiet and as we know, quiet birds are happy birds, with them being a little bit older and going in a little later they can fly a short distance so there was a few outside the pen, which did walk back in without any problems, looking at the way they are now and if the weather stays the way it is I think I’ll be lifting the wire this time next week and setting them to wood, but we’ll see what state these little sh*t machines make of the pens over the next few days

It’s turned it into a different scope, it’s so clear that caller is quality, it’s just a shame you need a tractor to pull it around the field

Once I got it set up ( didn’t take long, even for me ) it’s unbelievable, it picks up even the smallest heat source, I’ve used the one before this a lot and that’s not rubbish by any means, but comparing the 2 last night the Helion 2 is a lot clearer It could completely ruin deer stalking ?

Have a look at the “ back up at the shoot “ thread, it will give you an idea how I do things, if you can get through all the nonsense on there, mainly from BenBhoy ? -

Just keepering, I still really struggle with life, I don’t understand people ? -
Came in to hare distress, but to be honest the speed it came in I would of thought it would of come in to anything, young and dumb The one I’ve got picks up a lot more than my mates

I’ve been involved with shoots for a long time now, but it’s only in recent years that I’ve become a part time keeper, everything I’ve learned is from people on my shoot, other keepers and anyone else I can bother with my endless questions, I’m learning all the time but think I’m at a point now where I know enough to get by ?
