Watched some recent clips on YouTube recently of London in the 60s. No fat cnuts then, everyone worked and wanted to. Think I read somewhere recently 80% of britains are obese or will be soon. When I feel I’ve put a pound or two on, I do something about it, why can’t others?

Wear flip flops ?

Had a call out last night but nothing showed. Farmer had three lambs out near the farm on decent ground and ones disappeared. I’m not convinced it was a fox but sat out until midnight as you do. I’ll have a walk over later. Managed four big rats with the rimmy so not a wasted night

I agree. I can’t fault my Wraith which is on my Hornet. Compared to the latest gear it’s old hat but boy does it do it’s job. Having said that, I’ll be buying an Alpex soon to go on the 243 ??

Not normally but had it about a mile away on another spot ?

….After firing my Hornet, any ideas why? Recoil? Loose mount? I’d like to record what I shoot but with the IR knocking off I can’t ??

I suspect these were dropped foxes. There was one on last week, but very cagey, didn’t want to know a call. This week two and both came in like trains and there was another watching as I was leaving!

Popped up to the farm to do a recce for tomorrow night and a night ratting with the rimmy. I took the Hornet with me and threw a couple of rounds in my pocket just in case as I’d seen a fox outside the chicken run last week. A quick squeak on a new caller I’d bought recently and a vixen came flying in. Bang, down she went. I disposed of it and put my gear away ready to get off when I looked down the field again with the spotter and saw another right on her line. I dashed back for the rifle, got set up and pursed a squeak. Fox number two on the night after he came in really close ??

Best shot was at 82 yards on a bunnie ?

22 on the bunnies, 22.250 on the fox ??

Had a call from work to shift a few bunnies undermining an embankment. Managed 17. Spilled the guts onto the moor and stood a 100 yards away calling in Charlie. This vixen came in in a matter of minutes ??

For those of a certain age, you’ll remember when Saturday afternoon was brilliant for sport on terrestrial television. Well, one of the most well known figures and presenters from those days has sadly passed away. I must admit I thought he’d gone a few years ago. RIP Dickie Davies

It’ll be like the wild west tomorrow on the hill for beaters day. Everyman and his dog will be there. We’ve another more informal day on Monday when we’ll have a nice walk about and a chat

My mates IR seems too powerful for it in IMO. Gets plenty of white out. Took me a while to suss out where the fox was. Might just need the position altering, but the scope itself performs well ?? Once I’d focused it, picture was good

TD50L yes. Not mine but I pulled the trigger on this vixen ??

Dropped a nice looking vixen last night with the 22.250, 182 yards out on the edge of a reed bed. Earlier, I’m sure we dropped the first Charlie of the night but with it being a good distance and access to it through several frozen up locked gates, I’m out today looking for it. Too cold for brass monkeys on the moor last night ??

Excellent, well done ????We shot one once that was sleeping, this was when we lamped foxes. We walked up to it as it’s eyes still gave out a shine as they were open a slither.
