I took a walk down to the village shop early morning to get some  milk and bumped into local farmer and asked if he needed any one to ferret his land and he said "pop your phone number and address to the farm later today and we have a chat " I popped into the farm and after having a good chat I walked away with a map in my pocket of the boundary of my new permission ? I'm over the moon I got it and it's holding good numbers of coney and other vermin .

Had a good morning ,I dropped 75 purse nets and 10 poke nets in and along a double hawthorn /blackthorn hedge that both dogs marked .I placed the busher one side and me and the runner on the other and dropped a hob in each end and they bolted first coney in few minutes and next one hole hopped and netted itself ,one  was taken by runner  from unseen unnetted hole and she run it full length of hedge and nabbed it just in time  and we had another five in the nets by 1 o'clock so over all it was a good start and we lost a couple from unseen bolt holes.

The farmer popped over to see me and was happy with what he see and he walked away with a brace for the pot .

Got to say these two hobs haven't seen much this season due to numbers being low on old ground but they worked like demons and the dogs done me proud .

We are back at it Tuesday for a full day 

I didn't get to take any pics as I left me phone on kitchen table by mistake but I took a pic of rabbits I kept to feed the stinkers,
