Doc Holliday Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 ...to bloody townies! One of my old customers has sold their beautiful old farmhouse. I got permission there last year to shoot rabbits, etc. Took AndyCM there once for an afternoon, which turned out to be a bit quiet. Anyway, self confessed townies have moved in from Wandsworth and, after the old man expressing an inital interest in learning to shoot & prepare rabbits and such, his Mrs has said she doesn't feel quite ready to see a dead bunny :unsure: Cobblers! Anyway, on the bright side, I'm hopefully going to secure a slightly bigger permission not too far from there. Just need to work on it a bit more to wrangle it, if poss.

CZ550Kevlar Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 Just prey she is the horsey type and look for the vet paying a visit to fix a broken ankle, then follow up with a quick visit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Logic Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 I'm sure she will change her mind once they start eating her carrots :blink: I suspect so! My aunt retired to their holiday home in Devon from London. She grew up in the country but they're basically animal lovers in all shapes and sizes. However, the deer started eating the vegetable patch, and all of a sudden the deer are now on the menu down there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Holliday Posted September 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 I'm sure she will change her mind once they start eating her carrots I've already said that to her but she looked at me with a blank expression. I also said if the children weren't happy with the thought of it then to tell them it would just be the naughty bunnies that were being popped off (Christ! I can't believe I actually came out with that one). Still, let's see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe I actually came out with that one). Still, let's see what happens. My kids believe that I only 'pop' the naughty boy rabbits. The mummies and babies are all safe. Oh, and 'garden' rabbits are different and off limits too. Well the small ones are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJ91 Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 i have to say that i only shoot the evil ones that attack the piglets (piglets are cuter than rabbits apparently!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
