Mate the same, out of breath, wheezing like a good un, been on anti biotics but not shifted it, just been to hospital for chest X-ray but all clear....
I dont agree mate, i think everybody is going to want their pound of flesh here. Unless the girl refuses to cooperate its not going away. He might be a superstar but the knives are out already and it didnt prevent Adam Johnson going away.
Shame about the snipe BH...we had a few last week, all the years I’ve been shooting and only ever shot one ringed Greylag then in the last 6 weeks have had 2 ringed woodcock and a ringed snipe......you can just make out the ring on the picture I posted earlier....
Something about a cock wigeon mate....where we live I rarely see them, have shot the odd hen wigeon but the cocks are smart looking birds. Their ‘weeeeeoo’ call gets the blood pumping when you hear it in the dark......where I shot this one you don’t get them so this was a bonus...
Will give you a call about that other thing.
Surely if ever there was a time for a new deputy to ride into town then now is it. Most people are hacked off with the same old, same old......there is an opportunity waiting for someone.
Had a poke about before waiting for some duck to come into a pond, my spaniel hoovered up the first woodcock but ran over the second one 3 times without picking it....it was still alive and switched off its scent....bizarre I know but there is no other explanation....my dog has picked hundreds of woodcock but simply didn’t register it !
Was up the West coast last week chasing these little fellas. Must have flushed over 60 in a couple of days and finished on 16 between two of us. Hard going and the dogs will sleep for a week. Managed one carrying a bit of bling !
