welsh1 Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Popped out shooting this afternoon in between the rain,and when i got to the track to drive down to one of my permissions there was a farmer on a quad rounding up sheep that had escaped,so i gave him a hand and got them back in the field. Wondered around with the dog and there was nothing about,but noticed a sheep with a lamb up against a fence that didn't move as the dog went past,and on checking the ewe was dead,so i walked the mile to the farmhouse who i thought owned the field,but they didn't and the farmer on the quad did,so they called him and a couple of minutes later he turned up on his quad with lamb and sheep,he commented on how fast i had covered the land as he had seen me walk around. Well the farmer on the quad offered me to shoot in his fields, i thought it was just two until he pointed across the road and there was another 7 fields and huge ones at that which connected up with land i already had the other side of the valley. The other farmer then told me there were foxes and loads of rabbits in his fields and i could shoot them as well,this land connected up two other permissions i have,so now i can walk for miles through golf course,rough land,grazing land and ponds. What a day,i have about 600 new acres to shoot on.And Wales blasted England at rugby,doesn't get better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redgum Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Well done, sometimes things go like that. As for the rugby, as much as I hate to say it you totally out classes us on the day, still doesnt take away though that there is only one differance between the irish and the welsh.!

Frenchieboy Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Nice one mate, well done. This sort of thing goes to prove the old saying that I firmly believe in to be right - "What goes around comes around". (i.e. You do someone a good turn and eventually you will get a good turn returned to you! :good: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wymberley Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 (edited) This sort of thing goes to prove the old saying that I firmly believe in to be right - "What goes around comes around". Isn't that a fact! Can't get any brass for love or money. Picking up some bits in the RFD yesterday, "Any brass?", half heartedly as I was pretty sure I knew the answer. "No - hang on though", disappeared and came back, "got some once fired you can have cheap." Voice of another customer from behind me, " I gave you those as they're no use to me." "Indeed you did, which is why I'm selling them cheap. Father wouldn't forgive me if I gave something away so I'm charging Phil £0.01." 150 Hornet cases swiftly changed hands.

welsh1 Posted March 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 (edited) Best get to spec savers and lay in a few spare pairs of glasses Congrats Funnily enough it is all the land around that permission,the dead ewe was at the end of the track where i shot your rifle and took my specs off,then like an idiot forgot they were on the bonnet,so i now have all the land the otherside of the road and all the way down the dirt track to my permission. I now have three pairs of specs,as i thought i lost a pair a while ago,found them on a post at the end of the garden a week later, took them off when strimming to clean them,old age is going to crucify me. You down here this year? Edited March 17, 2013 by welsh1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
