Went out again yesterday leicestershire rang 101 no problem. I think there's a lot of winding up going on. Just ring and go !!!. Also went out last Monday Nottinghamshire no problem. Did ask if it was true about arrests etc as I didn't want to be in the wrong. They had heard nothing of it !!!. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our farm manager asked me to come and have a go at the pigeons on his drillings, I said I needed something in writing email would be fine. 2 weeks later nothing received from him so I haven't ventured up there..

Farmboy91 Posted April 29, 2020 Report Share Posted April 29, 2020 Just read on BASC's Instagram they are pushing for clear and consistent advice from all forces, as like with other matters some forces are deciding they are making the rules on whether you can go out or not, rather than taking the line of the advice given by the govt. They also pointed out how it's bizarre people are advised it's acceptable to drive to and take a walk in the countryside but not acceptable to carry out essential pest control, especially around lambing. Strange times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave-G Posted April 29, 2020 Report Share Posted April 29, 2020 (edited) Thanks for that Farmboy, looks like BASC is finally making some noise for its members now, hopefully they manage to convey a mock table thumping gesture to help drive home their message. i wonder if they read some of the posts on here.

Farmboy91 Posted April 29, 2020 Report Share Posted April 29, 2020 No problem 👍. But yes, let's hope so. Suffolk's website still only says about no new applications at the moment. You'd think with matters regarding firearms, eg medical notes, pest control at the moment etc the govt would take a firmer grip of how it's handled by the police.
