I arranged to take out PW member rotten fish 4 along with another friend today.
The weather was so poor it was unbelievable, thick fog and snow. We had to adjourn to the village for coffee until the fog lifted and when it did it was clear that there were hundreds of pigeons sitting around in various belts of trees. And there they stayed. The birds had not the slightest intention of flighting anywhere and all that happened was that we got very wet.
Sorry rotten fish 4 but that was a poor day for your first outing with me. I can see that you have all of the kit, including your nice young labrador and you are keen and there will be other times I am sure.
Much to his credit rotten fish 4 stuck it out like a good 'un and shot 11 pigeons and 1 crow.
