marsh man Posted June 23 Report Share Posted June 23 You , or more precise your boy picked a lovely day to get married on and sadly nowadays instead of going to Three weddings and funeral it is now very one sided the other way round , Didn't you get a couple of hours in decoying on your ole haunts while they were dancing the night away Mr JDog ? I remember many years ago when wildfowling was like a drug to me my wife's brothers daughter got married on the 1st of September which was on a Saturday , she asked me if I was going to take her and I said yes as long as I am away by 7 pm , this she was happy with and the deal was done , this was a top hat and tails affair , not me I must add , anyhow it was a afternoon White wedding and they left the church on a horse and cart which took ages to get to the hotel which was along the sea front , anyhow they finally arrived and we all headed to the dining room where they started off with the meal and drinks , this went on and on and on and all I kept doing was looking at my watch , after what seemed like ages it then got down to the speeches , again another drawn out affair , at long last they then moved to the dance hall , this is where I said my good byes and I was off , I whipped off home and just changed my suit to my more normal gear and I was back on the road in less than 10 minutes after arriving home , I had a 15 mile journey and even though it was around 8 o clock when I got there I still had time for flight as we had a lot of Mallard going on some unharvested wheat , we all all got a few duck and I was voted the best dressed wildfowler out on the marsh , mind you all I had on from the wedding was my shirt and tie so you can tell what the other riff raff was wearing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
