nagantino Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 I dropped in for a pint of Guinness on Moday night on my way home from work. "Pint of stout please", up it came. Oh yeah. This guy came in and I said Hallo. We got to chatting and it emerges that he shoots pigeons. "Where do you shoot" I asked and he names all the fields that I have been shooting and complaining about not seeing birds on, or cant get birds to come to my decoys. No wonder. Then he names all the other guys who shoot "my" fields. And theres me thinking I was the only one. It explains all those canny crows and pigeons who are suspicious of plastic birds. On my way home this afternoon I spotted a field full of crows and lovely pigeons winging in on freshly cut barley. I went to the owner and he has given permission to shoot it. Ill try this field on Saturday. No doubt Ill have to elbow the other guys out of the road to raise the gun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All "her" people are Lisburn. Courted a wee lassie from Broomhedge once. God forgive me but I cant remember her name. She was a piper though for the band.
