MR TEA POT 1,287 Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Popped out for a few rabbits for the ferrets,got to the farm the sun was warm but there was a stiff breeze,got to the first field,spied a rabbit sat out,went prone took aim..............and missed carried on walking soon spotted another sat out,went prone off the bi-pod,nice 30yd shot,took aim.............and missed again i thought fcek me,took aim at a thistle head and bang it fell to bits.Carried on round the field saw a few rabbits sat out,stalked in close,took aim on the nearest rabbit and CRACK down it went .Decided to sit and wait to see if any more came out,by this time it was getting a warm so i took a sip of water from my bottle,and laid in wait,managed 2 more rabbits from this spot .So deciding that was enough for the ferrets i got up,NOT relising how close my head was to the electric fence,my glasses frame came in contact with it,the electric surged round my face through the glasses frame,the fecking pain was unreal,both temples pounding like feck,it knocked me on my ass,i dribbled a bit of p1ss out .I sat there for a few minates,heart racing like feck. .I have touched that fence many a time and it has never been that bad,i got down to the farm yard and mentioned it to the farmer,well when he stopped laughing,he said he had to turn it up a bit as the bullocks where knocking it down Thanks for letting me know . The 3 rabbits shot. Quote Link to post

MR TEA POT 1,287 Posted August 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 Thanks for the replies you G1T'S . Glad you enjoyed the write up and my misfortune .I am suppose to be ferreting that hedge row in a couple of weeks,think i will turn the fence of first . It was the same fence i ferreted a year ago with my dad and as he was digging a ferret out, his forehead touched it,he went one way, the spade went the other and his glasses where hanging off the hedge,LAUGH i could not stop i had tears coming down my face,come to think of it i dribbled a bit then as well .He wanted to go home after that,he had had enough .
