Paddy Galore! Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) places to wildfowl ..... coming from the Midlands, Fakenham is just a chin-up spit from the water but in your info bar it says you're from walmington on sea, is that not really near the seaside then? but why fakenham? even by Norfolk standards they're weird not far from holkham or sandringham though Edited March 26, 2015 by Paddy Galore!

Wharf Rat Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 You want to go to The 'Nam? You don't know what it's like until you get there. Whilst you sit at your computer, getting a little r and r, Charlie just needs a handful of rice and some cold rats meat for his. You sit typing questions into PW and Charlie stays squatting in the bush getting stronger and stronger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

islandgun Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 Any one know what the wildfowling is like around this part of Norfolk? Keen to know any current info and any historical info..... any factoids, myths, legends and shooting info Thanks Norfolk is great, I used to live in Brancaster Staithe and went to college near Norwich (not at the same time) the N Norfolk coast is superb with some beautiful marshes and saltings, but you may struggle to find a native amongst all the very rich incomers, most people inland are the genuine article, plenty of open countryside and lots of birds, I also lived in Wisbech for a year as well and enjoyed it, even managed to stay out of any major fights, big skies and good old boys well it was when I was there in the late seventies, (dont spose the skies have changed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
