Bosun11 537 Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 Not doubting you mate, some areas are choc full at this time of year, though sometimes when lamping, foxes will follow and circle round you, youngsters especially, giving the impression you've got one or two or more in each field you move to.
