What unusual things have you found when ferreting?

[mooster 1]

A few weeks ago I was clearing brambles in a wood to prepare for ferreting when I noticed a carrier bag hidden in a ditch under brambles and ferns.

I took a cautious look inside fearing I had stumbled across something terrible. :sick:

When I tipped the contents onto the ground,out fell a selection of ladies underware,some porn and scariest of all a very large er...em..."love aid" (trying to keep this clean)

Probably not that unusual, but it made me wonder what things of interest others have found.Maybe a stone-age relic or german bomb when digging down to ferrets (or terriers i suppose).

Drugs? hidden treasure? mk 1 escort? strange bird or mammal? or will the only answers be just more porn and rampant rabbits?

There's a joke there somewhere!

Cheers.Mooster.

Hey was ferreting once, ferret came out all fluffed up we trenched a single holer and found a hedgehog. Found various peices of crocery, once found a walking stick which turned out to be a wilkinsonsword sword stick. Found this out by wacking a golf ball and the handle came away with sword, very pleased.

One day whilst out mooching came across a clearing on the edge of a wood and there was my terrier standing on a brown leather looking dead body eeeeckk!!!!! Had to wait around for fecking hours for the police on my own because my friend had a warrant out for non-payment of fines.

Thats not it another one of my friends was over our local scouts grounds and found a swinger, no not a wife swapper a body hanging from a tree! more eeeeeckk!!!!! he was about 17 at the time. Oh and I've seen various people performing sexual act's and there must be loads of sightings of steamed up cars whilst lamping just watch em panic when they get 2,000,000 candle power blasted at em, may be it's why it's called dogging erh!

The list goes on.

As I hope it does and will! Great stuff! A genuine WS?! F*ck me! That must have bought ye some hemp!

 

Friend of a friend once fetched an extremely rare and valuable type of Gin trap out of a bury. I can only imagine he must have been ferreting there at the time?

 

Regards swingers? I remember once reading a cracking account - maybe in Gamekeeper and Countryside ? - of an old 'Keeper who was found to be quietly ignoring one in his own woods.

 

When asked why he hadn't reported its presence, he replied; " Well; Weren't nuffn much I, or anyone else, could do for the bugger by the time I found him. And he's been doing my pheasents a power of good! "

 

He may, or may not have mentioned the guys boots? I don't remember and thus that may be seen as embellishment to an already good tale! Make ye own minds up on that one then

Once found an old annoying c**t on a common!!

 

Just finneshed netting up and this tit comes up to me with his border terrier and starts saying you dont wanna be ferreting that warren there boys, 'Theres hundres of holes and theres only three of you'

 

Replied by saying 'yes im fully aware of the fact theres a fair few holes' ,...The tit goes on to say that if we are to attemp this warren well need a person to watch each net, which would add up to around odd people to watch the warren

 

Then he goes on to say that in the olden days ladde ladee dar.... They would use there terriers for badgers and to push the rabbits back through the gorse to the warrens and then my mate goes to him 'ave you ever been ferreting or even owned ferrets? ' His reply was 'ope,..NEVER'

 

 

Have to say he sat back and was dazzeled at how three people where managing the situation and of he went.

 

I can say i hope to bump into that old unusual charachter again

I work on an estate and we have found porn mags loads of times from parked up wankers and penis pumps and a porn vid. Found a hand grenade once too coz the old colonel used to let the army practise here, it was about 60yards from houses and the 2 coppers that were standing guard were throwing stones at it it had been ploughed and rotovated a fair few times too. Apparently the last time they found one was 30 year ago and the village bobby just threw it in the basket on the back of his bike and bounced off up the tracks and to the main police station with it

Found loads of shaggers at it and some of the lads off the shoot found some lezzers at it while they were pigeoning the jammy b*****ds. Before I worked here the lads blocked some shaggers in with tractors so they had to drive right past a queue of lads and there was 2 blokes in the car, one putting his clothes back on!!!

Thankfully never found a body but there has been a couple of swingers found on an estate I used to keeper on since I left. Poor sods.

loads of stuff over the years ,last week it was a jerry can full of 10 litres of petrol ..

[smudgersmith 2]

Once found a selection of female underwear size 10, bra size 36D ( not that i looked ) and assortment of creams and jellies and rubbers, various colours and flavours, plus a mobile all carefully wrapped in a carryabag, did the decent thing and checked the mobile, it had no security lock. So being the caring type I am I checked the mobile for numbers but only found only two numbers on it, however there was some rather HOT photos of a bloody great looking babe in various positions doing things you only see in porn films.

 

We of course put it all back but decide to keep a eye on the bury. The following weekend while out we happened to chance upon a familar looking bird walking with a rather middle aged fellow, who in a flash was head down the bury fishing about, he found what he wanted and they were off in a flash. ( rather like her knickers me thinks ) I would have loved to see their face when they opened the carryabag. !!!

 

Happy Days

One farm i do has a road along one border, at the end of this road is a quiet lane, often been ferreting and seen cars and vans parked but moving on the lane, also found a fair few porn mags etc...they are usually oblivious to me in cammo moving slowly through the wood obviously being quiet not to alert the rabbits etc.. then shouting elatedly when i catch a rabbit and they quickly drive off

 

Once came accross a bloke sunbathing in ladies underwear whilst running with my dogs.

 

I grew up on a cottage attached to a farm and we had all the regular things shaggers etc...plus dumped pet animals, and three BT vans that had been stolen and stripped of all parts, there was one bloke who topped himself with a hosepipe from the exhaust into his car.

 

Also nearby was a bloke who hung himself in a wood, his missus reported him missing and they found his car at the roadside, anyway this was mid-summer he wasn't found until autumn when the leaves fell off the tree's and a lorry driver found him when going for a piss in the wood.
