OUT TODAY

[andy s410c 63]

Well after 2 weeks of gales & rain the weather today was glorious.Arrived at the top quarry for 8:30am,sunshine,light frost & breeze.On the way across i bumped into the landowner had a chat,even he was sick of the rain however the land had dried out nicely since last Thursday when i was up with the rimfire .

The workers today were Jasper & small jill Ruby who'd had a bit of a kicking the last time she was out so i was eager to see how she would be today . On the approach to the quarry bottom 2 rabbits dropped into 2 sets,a 2 holer & a 15 plus holer .Netted up the 2 holer & ran the quickset around the other with a few purse nets dotted around.

Collared up & put the jill into the 2 holer,thump,thump 1 in the net,the jill pelting out behind it .On the 15 holer,both ferts in,managed to shift bugs after a lot of thumping below my feet.

 

Moved onto the North wall to do the fallen tree set,ran the quickset along the bank,a few purse nets & put the hob in,he shifted 3 from here & i could see he'd enjoyed in there .

Moved further along the bank,same set up.Put the jill into a 2 hole tree set,she shifted another but it rolled the net .The bank set did'nt have anyone at home very unusual....Had a bite to eat & quicksetted the last set of the day,both ferts in,bolted 1 then it went quiet Magic box was showing 4-5ft with me doing a "bit" of digging this season i got the blade moving ,managed to get to about 3.5ft before i hit a limestone slab so no more blading .Both ferts showed after 10 mins with the hob blooded up.

 

Ended the day with 6 fat winter rabbits & was happy that the jill was back to her normal self

Got to make the most of my "man of leisure" time B,got a full time job starting in the New Year .Jasper worked hard today but the jill was my main concern,she bottled it the other week & i was happy to see her back to normal graft mode .

 

I would take my mate Rock off you in the blink of a eye but i don't think our cat would last long & he ain't as bad as you make him out
