harrycatcat1 Posted November 28, 2014 Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 The clock went off at 02.00 this morning and we were on the road for 2.20, we met Motty at "the lighthouse" at 05.00 and after a chat we had a steady strole onto the marsh. We arrived at the chosen spot and settled down for the morning flight as a visitor on a permit. Before dawn there was a lot of activity with duck sweeping past very fast, I heard them but was not fast enough. Dawn brought lots and lots of pinks coming over but too high for me. I put my gun down for a minute and a hen mallard came past laughing at me and winking its eye at me. Anyhow I really enjoyed it and would like to say thanks to Motty for a good morning. Not a shot fired but I did get a certificate for being the best looking visitor on Fenland this season. I have visited 4 different marshes this season and I have enjoyed the visits. Blacks and Frampton next if I can get a guide Regards Hcc ps I found Motty a well informed wildfowler and I was very interested in his views which made a lot of sense. Thanks again pps Its G+T time now to get me off to sleep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayano3 Posted November 28, 2014 Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 Did you get your visa stamped as you went over cross keys Bridge. If you ask uncle Albert he may take you on blacks marsh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello mate, bringing it back is the last thing on her mind. She will find whatever has been shot, make sure its dead then pluck it if I dont find her first, yes she is a little ******* but I wouldnt be without her. She is in her 10th year now so no changing her at this stage, Regards H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayano3 Posted November 29, 2014 Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 Dale said ping pong was a shemale. Are you confirming she's a proper she. She looks content in the mud alan. Hope you stopped and bought her the usual sausages from the cafe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you stopped and bought her the usual sausages from the cafe. Cant even give these breakfasts away nowadays, I offered my guide one but unfortunately he had to go to work. I dont like eating on my own so we hit the road home and she had to settle for a sausage roll. Dale is too loved up to know what day it is Regards H I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
