Bleeh Posted April 2, 2014 Report Share Posted April 2, 2014 (edited) I'm at my mothers house, quite (too far) away from home.So, me and the miss head out to the local pub. It's pretty much empty so we play cards at the bar.While we are sitting in there slowly getting sloshed, the local village council comes out from there weekly meeting in the backroom. Half of them leave and the other 4 sit about at the other end of the bar for a quick drink before bed.I have to sit there listening for 20 minutes at these two farmers discussing the pro's and con's of gas guns over bangers, the both agree that shooting is pretty much the easiest way, but neither have anyone who does any regular ******* shooting anymore.They then start talking about the crops - beans and pea's mostly.Needless to say I'd stopped playing cards and it was taking every ounce of my being to stop introducing myself - If it wasn't for the fact I'm so far from home, and the death stare I was getting from the miss.I held back, they started chatting about something to do with the local park's parking or something.I slowly sobbed into my Guiness, I was also trounced at cards.

fse10 Posted April 3, 2014 Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 (edited) Gutted. Maybe you should have given them the pigeon watch site details & they could of come on & fill their boots with pigeon shooters.

TIGHTCHOKE Posted April 3, 2014 Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 Come on Bleeh, name the pub and the village! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDog Posted April 3, 2014 Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 No distance is too far to shoot pigeons. Too far for regular reconaissance trips maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeh Posted April 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 The pub was called the Swan, it's Landlord was called John.Further than that, you'll have to find out yourself! aha.As far as mentioning pigeonwatch, you are right - I should have. The thought honestly didn't cross my mind at the time and now I regret it, if I see them again I'll point them this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
