    I thought you had gone to ground Ben. This variant is a swine. It's all around me, it's only a matter of time I think! Sincerely hope you recover quickly Ben. ?

    I was wondering about sideloader the other day. Well the pigeon shooting was good. Only 46 birds but heck they were hard shooting. We were on top of a hill with a pit behind us. The birds were either coming up the hill low or from left to right with little notice at speed with the wind. By the time you got on the birds they were 50yds plus. Had a brilliant time with an old friend, I haven't shot with Colin for a decade or more! I'm covered in mud and stink of dog after lifting his old labrador over a fence and getting a face full of muddy dog?, I wouldn't of changed a thing

    Well I tried following a barking fox last night. The thing just plays games with me! I've been feeding it or them. The swine or swines were there 730pm, midnight and 5.30am. I was there between 9.30 and 11.30pm ?

    I love getting up early and getting somewhere in the dark and waiting for it to come light. The rush watching Charlie work his way to you is priceless and it doesn't always work out but I love it.

    I got me rabbit! And look what else I found. An old WMR case of mine!
  8. Sausagedog
    Goodo, mine was like that. Not big but heavy. I don't know how you stand around so long! I have to go looking for them.

    Belting nightshift work Si. Those fox's eyes look look like mine after a heavy drinking session! Your mate using a shotgun and lamp. What shot? Tight chokes? Does he do OK?

    I use to visit pig units. Out door ones. Lots of fox's but a pain in the rump to work. Then there is the mud and stink!

    Nothing worse than being ill for an outdoors man ☹

    The other day I went after a rabbit with one of my flintlocks. Failed to get a rabbit, it was so damp and miserable. Trying to manage a flintlock in those conditions is a real challenge. Sure enough, the one rabbit I had a chance no fire. It was whilst stalking rabbits and having a misfire that I spied a fox coming my way. Full of doubt over the damp lock I got down and waited for a shot. When the fox was 30yds and side on I shot but all I got was a flash in the pan. The fox bolted. I laughed and thought how privileged a fox is today to witness a flash in the pan from a fl

    Don't believe me about charging squirrels? https://youtu.be/fF842Vr64uU

    I stand corrected. Thanks. I notice the broken line between the brown and white on the weasel too. The one I caught in the garden was the same. I didn't realise how small bitch stoats are!
  16. Sausagedog
    It was tiny. As small as this one a few weeks ago.

    Never seen so many rat holes in the fields. Caught another bitch rat in my garden trap today. Shot a weasel the other day too. Squeaked it in.

    There you go Ian. Well done ?

    Speaking to an estate owner today he is furious about how the squirrels have all but destroyed the hornbeam trees on the place. I remember seeing dozens of squirrels nibbling on them in September. Had many a firefight in the hornbeam me!

    I can't believe how many squirrels there are this year, shot another 8 today with the 455. Big fat monsters on maize stubble.
  21. Sausagedog
    Sure, I know, if I said to my Mrs I'm not going out shooting anymore, it's to expensive she would slap me, throw me out the door followed by a gun and probably the wrong ammo?
  22. Sausagedog
    I never let boys or women assemble any of my firearms! I don't want it failing during a squirrel charge!!
  23. Sausagedog
    Think so buddy. Nice shooting cartridge.
  24. Sausagedog
    Oh and I got a slab of cartridges while I was settling my account with Croxton country stores this morning plus a box of Hull high pheasant steel hydrowad #4 @£11 a box ?. I don't know whether to shoot them or fix them to an ornamental plinth!!
  25. Sausagedog
    How about this shot? This wonderful bird lifted ahead of me by 25yards, flew away from me and then turned left. The sxs flew to the shoulder effortlessly, flicked it through and shot. The shot was thirty and a bit yards and I used a hullmax 34g #4! Made a meatloaf with them today.
