Unless you have access to a big estate. No decent course fishing, no hunting, fck all. Not even decent walking unless you like mountains or conifer plantations. No fck that....it doesn't compare to the west country 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

king 11,664 Posted May 16, 2021 Report Share Posted May 16, 2021 Came back from the hospital Friday afternoon.sat on the patio and 2 swallows flying through the tunnel by the back door. "There's a brick shed outside with a roof between it and the house" They spent Friday night on top of some lagged pipes coming from the shed to the house.oil boiler is in the shed.. They spent last night there aswell.never had them here before.. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
