    I haven’t watched Laurel and Hardy for a long time . They used to be on the telly all the time when I was a kid .They still make me laugh. Geniuses.?

    I hate the way a lot of youngsters talk in a sort of Jamaican patois , kids who’s parents I know are white and live in Gloucester with a West Country accent , but the kids are trying to sound like they are yardies from Kingston town . And then finish off their sentence with “ do you get me “? They need a bullet and kicking under a hedge .

    I know what you mean . I had a run in some years ago with a guy I caught breaking into a shed on the shoot . We put a bale spike through his transit . Felt great at the time , but the trouble we had after from him and his friends made us reevaluate our approach to such things . Now , we just report things to the police , which we did with this case , and all we got was an incident number . We could also have left the vehicles there till the spring , but we would have had all their mates up trying to get it out . The best and easiest thing was to get some money off them , take the piss out of t

    Good result Ben , I wish I’d gone out but, I had a bit of trouble with off roaders, probably Britain’s worst off road duo . The phone goes and it’s this old guy who lives near the shoot , his house overlooks one of the valleys .“ Are you out tonight “?“ No , I’m at home watching strictly “, ( There is only one reason men watch strictly, and yes , I am a perv) , “ because there are torch lights in the valley “ , “ cheers , be there in a minute “. I got to the valley and the lock on the gate was broken, and I could hear revving and talking and see torches . As I approached I put my lamp on and

    The skill in good story telling is to make you invest or be interested or care about the characters, and the girls character and the way she acted was brilliant.

    5000 wow that’s a hell of a number . Shotguns of a quad or pickup can make a real dent I. The numbers . Before I took the shoot on as keeper I used to help the old keeper . He wasn’t much for killing stuff so rabbits had built up in numbers to almost plague proportions. He got me to shotgun off the back of the pickup while he drove and lamped . It was carnage , I could hardly load fast enough in some fields , it was almost like an arcade game . We didn’t pick them up as it slowed things down too much . There were literally dead rabbits everywhere. The bosses mother who walked her dogs through

    I normally struggle a bit getting up and down , but when the adrenaline is pumping I can get around like a 16 year old .?

    This farmer is soooooo tight . His clothes and boots are falling off him , I’ve seen better gear on a tramp . But I can’t fault his animal and bird husbandry . The place is spotless and he is always working. He’s basically a nice guy , he can’t help the way he is , we are all different. He did used to try shooting the foxes himself but just ended up educating them . I basically told him to leave them to me , as him keeping on missing them just makes it more difficult. I do if because I enjoy the challenge of foxing.

    Well I had my supper tonight ( pork chops , mash and some frozen runner beans , if you are interested sausage ) and made my way over to the farm to have a look to see if what took that dead chicken was about . The farmer met me at the gate with his torch, he’d just been to lock up the birds and told me he saw one in with the cattle earlier but nothing in the run . I got the rifle and my sticks out and had a scan with the thermal and sure enough the run was clear . So I thought I’d check the field at the back with the cattle in . I was walking along the track to check the bank an

    Last night after I’d shot the two foxes at the chicken farm and they’d posed with the chicken for that photo. I chucked the chicken over the fence back into the run . I popped in this morning and it was gone . I asked the farmer if he had moved it and he hadn’t. I guess I will be back out tonight.

    All joking aside , some get really savage , and hit you with their spurs and like sausage said they draw blood . This one hit the back of my thigh and drew blood . And flew at my face . I’ve given pheasants a bit of a beat down to make them wary of you , but it’s difficult because I don’t really want to hurt it .

    Just about to eat my supper and the phone goes , it’s the chicken farmer . “ can you get here “ , “ why , what’s up “? “ I’ve just been to lock the birds up and I’ve seen a pair of eyes in the run “. “ I will be straight over “ . I told the Mrs to keep the supper warm , I wouldn’t be long , she said something along the lines of , “I’ve heard that one before “. A quick dash around getting the rifle and all my kit and I was in the truck in a couple of minutes. I turned the thermal on as I approached the farm and was scanning as I drove up the track . And sure enough I spotted a fox t
