secretagentmole 1,701 Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Popped into the local Co-op to see one of the staff about shooting the rabbits that are knocking 7 bells out of the herbaceous borders and the veg patch. Showed her the SACS membership card, told her that night time shooting was not a problem (she wondered why she was not seeing them causing the damage, well this time of year the little baskets are usually out at dusk and after dark). Then the amazing question was asked. "How much do you charge?" To which I replied, "Nothing!" Quote Link to post

No f**ker walking round with a gun, dogs or ferrets where rats are concerned, rats are knocked on the head in private, away from public gaze 1 Quote Link to post
Rabid 1,936 Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 (edited) Sorry to dissapoint you boys, but I think I have had the best ever deal, better than any of those, I got a permission a few years ago on some paddocks owned by a livery yard, never got a penny, but after just over a week or so of showing my face, was invited in by the daughter for coffee, one thing and another, we ended up seeing each other, been together since then. I get dinners, coffee, tea, and plenty of the other as well ! Edited October 11, 2013 by Rabid 2 Quote Link to post
