A good night? I had a brilliant night!! :D Typp was excellent, only his fourth time on the lamp and in the end he was retrieving to hand he managed to catch well into double figures :clapper: One of the runs was excellent too - he was like lightening and was right on the rabbits tail the whole way!! It was great fun to watch. Yes, I got caught up on some barbed wire and poor Woodga had to strategically get me off without tearing my trousers in a rather embarrasing place :icon_redface::notworthy: He even did the shit kickers waltz straight down a steep embankment and into the river to celebrate!! :laugh::laugh::clapper::clapper: i had visions of the air ambulance having to find us the way he hit the ground :icon_eek: but he got straight back up and on we went to catch more rabbits :yes: . Flyte was a star too! Swiftly moving through the fields and bringing them all back to hand :yes: Altogether a great night and a BIG thankyou to both Woodga and Ratcherman for letting me join them! Oh, it took me 1 hour to prepare the rabbits for the freezer :icon_eek: Mind you I did the last one much quicker than the others :D I'll put some pics up soon.

It's not a night out with woodga unless he does his trademark fall :laugh:

I can honestly say it was one of the funniest things I have ever seen :laugh: (Sorry Woodga :icon_redface: )First his leg went in the air then he just bounced down the rest on the embankment straight into the river, it was very hard not to laugh :yes: I was pleased he was ok, he was very brave!!
