Fisherman Mike Posted January 9, 2004 Report Share Posted January 9, 2004 Ollie, on the 26th went to my rough shoot with the 16 g and shot 2 pigeon, 1 White crow, and a rabbit. Put the rabbit on the bough of a tree because i didnt want to lug it about for a couple of hours. Came back round and couldnt find the rabbit. It was jumping aroud about 25 m away. I thought 25g of N0. 7 would have been enough but then noticed that a BIG mink had dragged it of the bow and I think it was trying to **** it back to life. It died happy too. Which part of Ireland? My Brother lives in Omagh. married a fine Irish lass. Hes into Cricket..... what a poof!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest flightline Posted January 10, 2004 Report Share Posted January 10, 2004 Hi Fisherman Mike! Totally agree with your last comment on cricketers. What a bunch of Jessies! People like Botham, Trueman, Stewart, Waugh, Flintoff, Lee, McGrath..I could go on, but you get the idea. As big a collection of Queens as you`ll find outside of a ladies hairdressers, eh?

How many male hairdressers does it take to change a light Bulb?... Four. One to change the bulb and 3 to stand back and say; mmmm that looks lovely Nigel... :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F150 Posted January 10, 2004 Report Share Posted January 10, 2004 Hi Ollie Couple of days ago, I took 27 woodies for 36 cases over my paddocks as they made their way home in strong winds (managed 3 L + R). One unlucky crow found lead as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NGhost Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 Hi Ollie Couple of days ago, I took 27 woodies for 36 cases over my paddocks as they made their way home in strong winds (managed 3 L + R). One unlucky crow found lead as well. In my local gun shop a case is 250 cartridges. 27 for 9000 cartridges is bad even for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F150 Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 Cheers Ollie! NGhost, it was one hell of day - no seriously, up here in the north, we call cartridges cases. Cheers F150 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
