Im absolutely hacked off with it,everything has to be done on foot and takes twice as long, cant go on the fields or your up to the axles in mud, cant start anything and if you do its either pack up or get soaked again..... there I feel so much better now for a rant... not!!

Highlander Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 Work with the weather you're sent! There are always some opportunities out there it's just a matter of finding 'em! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si-Bore Posted September 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 I realise that because as I was driving back along the road from my shoot today which seemed bare I saw a field getting alot of attention from a couple of massive flocks of woodies! I need to find out who owns that!! Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilv Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 (edited) Went out yesterday in pouring rain, and to my surprise I got fifteen rabbits. You'd think they would be underground, but maybe it's getting damp down there in the burrows. They seemed to sit tight even when I started barraging them with the HMR without sound mod. I got five in one place without moving, one shot after another. Quite amazing. I was out two days before in similar weather at a different place, and I got a rabbit and a pigeon. First pigeon I've shot in years and very tasty. Took the breasts off it (including the one with an exit hole and a chunk missing), fried them gently in butter with some salt, pepper and green peppers, simmered gently for twenty minutes, added some basil and cream and had it on toast as a starter.... Very nice, followed by lamb steaks, home grown French beans and rioja. Edited September 6, 2008 by Evilv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First pigeon I've shot in years and very tasty. Took the breasts off it (including the one with an exit hole and a chunk missing - gave that one to the wench), fried them gently in butter with some salt, pepper and green peppers, simmered gently for twenty minutes, added some basil and cream and had it on toast as a starter....

Mungler Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 Went out yesterday on a driven partridge day with LV and Flashman. Will add photos when the disposable camera comes back from Boots. We all got completely soaked but we all shot something, however, LV had to pay a fine for his part..... Cracking stew dinner afterwards. Just been told the final damage : 18 bottles of wine, 4 cans of stella, 1 hip flask of Brandy, 1 bottle of port - not bad going between the 8 who were drinking. Can't wait for the next one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
