OK ish night (sort of)

[lllluke1 328]

First dry night for a while, so I thought I would go for a walk. 

Got to the third field and there was a fox about 70 yards away, rifle on the gate post and down she drops.  Quick scan and there was another 2 foxes about 100 yards away.  No safe shot, and one was running like a bat out of hell and the other was trotting where the only backstop is a cottage, so left them go.

Gets back to the car, and thinks I'll have a look in the first field again.  At the far side of the field was a fox.  I know from the gate to the hedge is 170 yards ish, took the shot off the gate, but must of pulled it because the fox took off across the full length of the field.

Goes back to the car again, puts everything away and now the car won't start.  Had to get a lift home from the farmer.

So that's 1 vixen down, 2 with no shot, 1 missed and one knackered car.  Not the best of nights

You did well all things considered.

Isn't it light.

I been waiting for a chicken killer. He was about, I could here him barking and I got a glint but that's all.

Let us know what's up with the car.

On the bright side you know that you have a couple to chase around over the festive period

Getting 1 is never a bad night.

Neutral safety switch, won't let the car start if it's not in park or neutral.  Jumper lead on the starter relay will keep me going for the time being

I like the fix
