  1. BothBarrels, your quite right it is a bit like shooting fish in a barrel, but I guess its a job that needs doing. The farmer seems happy that they have been shown the error in their ways so with any luck it'll lead to some decent decoying on the rest of his land, the best thing is he even offered to pay me for my troubles. I told him "I wasn't after his cash but if he had anymore pest issues to give me a ring and I'd be right over". He said "of course I will, but please take something for your time" So after a bit of "go on, go on, go oning" we settled on a couple of quid to cover the cartridges used, happy days!!!! Ads
  2. Cheers guys, looks like I'll be having a few hours fun then Ads
  3. Hi all, As the title suggests really, got called to a farm today to take a look at a pigeon problem around the machinery, the little b******ds are sitting up in the rafters and doing their business on all the tractors etc. Great I thought I could handle a couple of hours of this. Anyhow when I got there (not 15mins later) the farmer showed me round and pointed to the the top of the barn, now there were at least 30 of them sitting up there happily cooing to each other, the problem was nearly all of them were white, there are a couple of obviously feral white and brown ones but generally they are all 100% white. They look like feral pigeons but pure white like a magicians dove!!! So thats my question can they be dealt with or not? Many thanks in advance Ads
  4. As they said, I went to Bangkok twice last year and didn't see any gun stall/shops, where are they hiding them all? Ads
  5. Its funny how some things just make you smile . I had a rather good meeting with a farm manager yeasterday and walked away with 190 hectares of shooting permision. To say I'm chuffed is a bit of an understatment! He took me on a guided tour of the farm, and whilst driving about we must of seen at least ten thousand rabbits and even in broad daylight we saw five of our little ginger pals Aswell as the vermin problem there is acre after acre of maize, wheat, peas and beats that looks very promising to pull a few pigeons in. So happy days, it just goes to show if you don't ask you don't get. Never be afraid to go and speak to the farmers, you never know what you might get, the worst they can say is no and just sometimes they say yes and you can walk away beaming ear to ear. Ads
  6. They're a great gun Sam. My old man bought me one when I was about six, I've still got it now thats a good twentythree years later and its still going strong. Not the prettiest thing but great fun and they certainly stand the test of time. Enjoy Ads
  7. Hi Rarms, Haven't got a trap made up at the moment, but where in west sussex are you maybe I could pop over and help you knock one together? Have you considered snares I have some set up on my land and charlie just loves to stick his head through them They have accounted for four in the last couple of weeks alone. Ads
  8. As he said, is it still up for grabs? Cheers ads
