Alot of game/ wildfowl/ venison ate in this house also. My wife and my 2 girls all eat it. I have a comb dry plucker, makes short work of everything from geese to snipe. I bought it from storey poultry 20 years ago. It was a fully reconditioned plucker. Expensive at the time, but absolutely worth it in long run. For Time saved plucking. A couple of successful days shooting, there could be substantial amount of birds to get through, Before that all plucked by hand, me and my father. Everything that goes in freezer is plucked/ processed, vac packed, never put any game, fowl in freezer with feathers on. Its a real bug bear of mine people wanting to shoot game/ fowl and not using it. If you have time to shoot it then you have time to pluck it, or breast it.. there are many ways to cook game, fowl. And done properly is some of best tasting, healthy meat there is. You owe it to the bird to see that it is eaten by someone.

Great guns, bomb proof. Brilliant handling guns.

I have the tall gusset green non neropene ones β¬80 euros.. it all depends on what you want. But for me they are far superior wellies for hunting in. I do alot of very rough shooting, usually 3 days a week this Time of year. And the aigle parcours weren't up for that abuse.

Decathlon, solognac wellies are far superior to aigles. Half the price.. bought aigles 2 years ago, not fit for any abuse walking through briars etc, they get scored then crack and split. Save your money, Buy the solognac.

Are the duck dri jackets good? I have their treggings, very good, actually as good as you'll get. But their sales process is 30 years behind times.. only take postal order/ cheque.. Hard to fathom this day and age, was a lad from Northern Ireland taking duck dri stuff in but not anymore. So hard for us boys in eire to get it.

Quick a delicious way for doing your redlegs, fillet breast and leg off either side of breat bone, season sea salt, black pepper, hot pan, olive oil, butter, Place skin side down, and baste leg thigh, when top side of breast is tepid warm turn over, baste breast and leg, for another couple of minutes, then turn pan off, leave to rest for 5 minutes then slice breast, pour some pan juice over, enjoy..

I don't think tax should be paid on intrest earned. I already pay plenty of tax, on my wages, etc without paying another 33% on my savings. And if I decide to take a risk and invest as in stocks, shares etc, not bank ,my hard earned savings, the government will take 44% tax !
