It’s been frosty the last couple of mornings, it’s very welcome , hopefully it will kill a few bugs . Unfortunately the Maize and cover crops don’t like it and they will soon be unviable as a drive .

I’ve just had a phone call from the shoot captain, a couple of the members are not happy that we are shooting tomorrow, no one is forcing them to come and the alternative is I go up and rifle the lot, as it has been from the start of the season, you make your own decision as to if you feel comfortable being there. The captain said they won’t air their thoughts with me because they already know my response, if I get my way next season they won’t need to worry about it, TWISTY FACED OLD TW*TS ?

If I was a gun and couldn’t attend because I lived in Tier 4 , but others could shoot , I would wish them a great day and hoped they got some good sport . What a bunch of mean spirited tossers , they are behaving like children. 
           Deal with them another day , forget about them and enjoy whatever shooting you can . ATB ?

Another day at the shoot, when I set off this morning I didn’t think I’d get here, the snow was very heavy, by the time I’d got on the top not a bit of snow. It’s now started to come down heavy so it might be an early finish because you really don’t want to get stuck up here ?

Typical , we have snow this morning and cant shoot , feeders were all filled the other day and plenty birds about ? Bet you have a good day today Stav ?Just walked the dog down the fields and watched a weasel with a young rat which it had just killed , only 4 foot away from me and not bothered at all more interested in dragging its dinner off. Amazing strength these voracious little predators have ?
