Had a few comical moments like that myself mate .
We were ferreting opposite a pub years ago when a woman shouted something from the car park .We ignored as you do but bit later my mate said we got company .Two WPC s walking across the field to us .
Had reports of badger digging .
Right ,the only dog we had was a 25 “ lurcher lol.One says what you doing then .Ferretting duh .She says do you get many ferrets around here to which I replied we ain’t doing bad ,got 4 in the box already ??
