Deker 3,491 Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 I had cause to visit Thetford, Ipswich and Romford today....330 miles altogether, a fair bit off my normal patch and probably 30 years since I've been to Ipswich. You are lucky folk over that part of the world, as usual, I spent more time looking at the countryside, fields, woodlands, backstops, quarry etc, etc, than I did looking at the road...I know, a very bad habit!! My patch, Berkshire, is full of small holdings, commercial estates and tarts with 3 or 4 acre gardens...and neighbourhood busy bodies who can hear a moderated .22LR with subs 10 miles away...and complain non stop!!

cbw 4 Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 (edited) Deker, As mentioned previously next time your this way give me a call! My missus and yours? can 'do lunch and shops' whilst we do bunnies!!! I have to say I do feel very lucky to have so much to shoot on, I do however also have some 'large' pony padocks to shoot on but they are full of rabbits!

Deker 3,491 Posted December 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Nice to know there are plenty of tarts in Berkshire Deker with a pony paddock. Polo Ponies!!! You have a good memory, been there a few times now, always very welcoming but that's it so far..but Dad was knocked out last visit when I took a fox out for them...always pays to impress Dad!! In this instance for several reasons!!! Quote Link to post
Mr_Logic 5 Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 yes it would be nice to live somewhere other than here, whenever I go anywhere else, bar London, I end up seeing how much more countryside there is compared to here. Devon/Cornwall or Scotland would do nicely - somewhere where you can have a cannon and fire it pretty much wherever and whenever you like. That'd do nicely. Quote Link to post
