Tyla 3,179 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 I had a nice day out yesterday with Blackstaff and his son Bill. We did two different bits of ground and ended up with 17 rabbits, 2 cans of stella and a bottle of red wine! The latter were from a greatful landowner! We were mostly bolting into long nets but little Bill did his first solo bury using just a ferret and Pearl, added another 2 bunnies to the bag. Well done Bill! Had a slightly sketchy moment when a woman neighbour turned up saying she "worked in animal welfare and what were we doing?" Luckily both Blackstaff and I are gifted PR experts, we explained how it worked and offered to let them watch. They watched one bolt, had a chat and ended up buying the rabbit, watching it be skinned and asking for recipes! Howzat!!! ... anti to rabbit eater in 15 minutes! It was a good day but will probably be our last serious ferreting day, rabbits are thin on the ground and we dont want to interfere with breeding this year especially as i have a pup to bring on next season! Thanks Mrs Blackstaff for the sandwiches! No pictures today as we both forget cameras. 1 Quote Link to post

blackstaff 488 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 (edited) Cheers for a good day mate, we both enjoyed ourselves too A few bits Tyla missed out on were the anti wanting to take pic's of my ferts, but could my boy hold them still and make them pose for the camera :11: The lady landowner bringing us coffee and very nice chocolate biscuuits to where we were ferreting The Lady who's garden we done wants me to go back and shoot more rabbits as soon as we can, i explained that i'd like to wait till its a bit warmer with some more hours of light and go up with my son and his rifle too . ' Oh that would be lovely, thank you ' was her reply, brilliant One of my bloody hobs running around like a looon all afternoon :crazy: , could of killed the little f*ker Mrs B said she always likes to put a ' spare ' sandwich in, just incase As for forgetting the cameras, i didn't actually forget mine, i sold it :blush: Good news is after dropping Tyla home i went home to Brighton, grabbed a bite to eat then drove just over 2 hrs to go and collect my new camera Left there at 12, then drove the same back, to say i was tired is an understatement !! The good thing is i have a new toy so will probably bore you all with more pics soon Nearly frgot NO DIGS EITHER Cheer to Tyla for another enjoyable day out Edited February 23, 2011 by blackstaff Quote Link to post
