    All types of shooting,working gundogs,ferreting. Occasional trout fisherman and naturalist.
  1. And presumably the normally sneering anti-establishmentarian Bill Harriman will be representing us? The sooner he is replaced the better for all. P
  2. T and D Ever considered Port-a-Pet? much better designed and a lot lighter. P
  3. Have you thought about a green woodpecker? a mate of mine who keeps bees had lots of problems with these birds at one time, either destroying the boxes or tapping at the entrance and eating the bees when they emerged to see what was going on. P
  4. Bleeh Just a couple of points. It is not a great idea to write your name and address in a book as it can affect the value. Postage is likely to be more than a pound and remember the quote "Never lend books, for no one ever returns them; the only books I have in my library are books that other folks have lent to me” However I hope your idea works well. Regards P
  5. Point and shoot is right, sod all that bending down, but you don't need a v shaped hook a nail will do just as well, place the leg where it is broken over the nail and pull down. In the video he just snaps the leg but it breaks easier if you score it first with a knife. P
  6. Dunkield I did a day on CWD and it was probably the most unchallenging stalking I have ever done. Won't bother again; do it for the game book as a one-off. I was slightly lucky in that I shot a gold medal but didn't get charged the ridiculous trophy fee (long story). I agree it doesn't get any better than red deer hill stalking. P
  7. Blaser F3 Just like to add my support to your assessment of the facts. You are 100% correct in your interpretation of the law. Regards P
  8. Mungler A friend of mine built one of these towers from traditional timber. Cost of materials was just over £400 and took less than a day to construct for 2 people. The best high seat I've ever seen. P
  9. SIH If you want a large scale map from OS. you have to contact one of their franchises (ring them for details) however they are expensive. I was quoted £50 and £10 for every extra copy but it was a large area. P
  10. I' ll take the Harcombe book. PM sent. P
  11. An otter is also a member of the weasel family and as such it too has five claws. P
  12. All I don't think this is deadly nightshade which has a purple flower. Certainly it is a member of the solanum family and my guess would be black nightshade which is nowhere near as toxic as belladonna and a common weed. Regards P
  13. Hi Looks like a bullace or maybe a variety of damson or a similar member of the prunus family and edible. However don't take my word for it do your research first. P
