  1. I was of the same mind yesterday, patches of grazed rape on a very wet field showed some signs of activity, started well but just stopped after an hour and no more birds, home at midday with 12 birds, some cracking shots in testing conditions, cant beat it, well done on your 20.
  2. Lidl special buys today.
  3. Hadn't noticed you had not been on. ...
  4. Well done in keeping the hide up, its bad enough when you’re against a hedge in strong wind, never mind out in the middle of the field, well done in shooting a few in difficult conditions. Your lucky you found some sown stuff, around here the ground is still soaked, talking to a few farmers who were planning on sowing some spring barley say its looking very doubtful as its getting a bit late. Went out myself yesterday morning and the fields are still waterlogged.
  5. Talking of 35 minutes in the oven, have you not thought about an air fryer? Heats up food in half the time or less, and a lot cheaper to run, perfect for KFC.

    First cut

    Third cut today.
  7. If you have a card reader then yes do it that way but you should be able to plug the caller into the PC with a USB cable and read the files on the SD card, from there you should be able to copy and paste to your PC
  8. I love KFC and have tried lots of so called KFC rip-offs, not found one that comes close to the real things…..But...I have not tried the co-op KFC.
  9. Just copy the files from your Icotec caller to your computer using a USB cable.
  10. Remember my dad telling me about a saying during the 2WW, might have also been true during the 1WW and that was….when the English started shooting the Germans took cover, when the Germans started shooting the English took cover but when the Yanks started shooting, everyone took cover.
  11. Bet your chicken farmer is happy, well done mate.

    Agreed, there's some ancient meadows not far from home, for years it was well known for its Sky Larks, then Badgers moved into the old railway embankment, the set is now about 30+ yards long, I have not seen a Sky Lark on those fields for the last 10-12 years.

    Don't know why the bloody things are protected, if they can catch, kill (not always) and swallow it they will.

    We lost a few fish some years ago when Herons moved into the nature reserve across the road, since then we netted our pond but they still come into the garden and stand looking at the fish, a lump of dirt usually puts them off for a bit.
  16. A busy week, well done, there's a lot of poor rape this year, not sure if it was the poor sowing conditions in August or the very wet winter we have had, those rape fields look dryish, is it light soil?
  17. I like cabbage but we usually have spring of savoy, savoy being a bit milder, so whats this sweetheart cabbage like?
  18. Out of luck mate, just spoke to the wife and she give them to the local charity shop, shame as he had only had them six months before he died, virtually brand new, one owner. How I wish there was a tongue in cheek emoji...
  19.

  21. It’s wymberley, his posts are sometimes like ‘Only Connect’
  22. think the guy's had some flak over this as he's removed the video from his YT account.
  23. Jonty is your man...https://forums.pigeonwatch.co.uk/forums/profile/8521-jonty/
  24. I just cannot understand it, we all know the pressure shooting is under and you get someone posting a video with what looks like dumped game, with the right story behind it and leaked to the press its pure gold for the anti shooting mob.
  25. true, but he does have a YouTube account promoting all his videos for all to see. He’s obviously had some stick as he blocked comments on this video and added the note below. note :- the land owner puts the bait down on his land I have nothing to do with it . he decides its his land all I do is the fox control for them any problems with this contact them not me , absolutely fed up with this is why I came off all the shooting pages on social media and I'm close to wrapping this up as-well.
