martin hollinshead 13 Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Joined the forum last night but couldn’t see how to introduce myself – probably get it wrong this morning too! My main interest is falconry – all ground game – but I have enjoyed a little hunting with running dogs and am also a keen ferreter, using them mainly with hawks. Anyway, intro over – let’s see if I can get it to post where it should be. Martin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
