  6. yeah they were unfortunately i swimming lessons so i couldnt just drop em home! kids who would av em ay?lol
  7. finally today after a six week break i managed to get a few hours sport. after waiting on a hammered field for two hours i had five for my troubles and about 15 shots so i gave up it was **** sun in my face no birds anywhere! so i went off for a bite to eat and get some petrol and on my way home thought that i would just see if any other field of rape had been hammered with any pigeons on. to my supprise there was about 50 pigeons get of the field in two or three small groups so i thought sod it. buy this time the wind was howling and it was half one and i had to get my kids at 3 so i thought i might be able to up my average for the day. solid ground ment my DIY hide poles wouldnt go in so i just hung mmy netting up in the hedge as i had no time to fanny about making it look pretty. after a couple of minutes i had shot three for three all getting blown about massivly but still were determined to land. after 45 mins i had 12 for twelve shotss and some cracking shooting some suicidal and some flight lining! with ten minss to go before end of play i had 3 more for six shots which peed me off a bit but hey ho! one of those three came in when i was about 4 feet from my gun shoving my net into my bag i managed to walk to my gun clear as day and got it lol. well happy with it 15 for 18 shots in a hour just wish i didnt have to pick the bloody kids up ! lol wel thanks for reading just thought i would share my first good day for ages with you all as my wife doesnt care too much for hunting stories! regards matt

  9. I've been out at half six most Sunday mornings recently. Just go on the fields near the houses! As said before just apply common sense! I had some one tresspassing to come and have a go at me a fortnight ago he scared my five year old so I told him if he didn't **** off I would call the police! There are some ****** about!

Pigeon pittas you need 1 pack smoked streaky bacon pigeon breasts about 8 feeds 2-4 black pudding pittas and salad chop the bacon into 1cm slices and fry off untill golden brown, then chop the back pudding into cubes and fry off.
