Dumb Townies

[PeskyWabbits 464]

In the past few days I have had some gems from friends/associates.

 

The first was a comment from a discussion about hobbies. When I said I did a bit of shooting, the answer was

'murdering nature's pets'

Well that's one way of putting it I suppose.

 

Then I had some guests, one looked at my ducks and said, 'that's a big one, is it pregnant?'

 

Er, right..

 

My hens roost in a tree. A guest said, 'how do they get up there?'

 

Jeez, education from Wallace and Gromit.

 

Has anyone had similar experiences?

I just keep thinking of the old song

 

" let me take you by the hand"

 

sung by a few diff people but the logic's the same

 

we show other people a totally different world to what they are used to

I'm a townie. I grew up on a council estate. But, I never was one for putting graffiti on shop shutters or nicking cars. I preferred the woods and the rivers - It was always quieter and it smelled nicer

 

I'm always amazed at the way some people (Townies) will recoil when I offer them rabbit or pigeon ..... Good fresh honest meat Vs processed crap.

..... I made rabbit pasties and took them into work, to educate the townies. Everyone loved them, they'd all gone in 10mins

Well?

 

Was the duck pregnant?

 

How did the hens get in the tree?

I had a friend from London stop here for a few nights recently. (And I'm sure he will read this.) When we were sitting outside having a coffee, he pointed to a sheep field and said "What's that white thing."

 

I kid you not, eh Gav.

My mates missus was watching river cottage with us, I think she was dropping him off for curry night, anyway I digress....so Huw is climbing up trees harvesting young rooks (branchers) to make a rook pie. To this lady's horror, she screamed at the telly "why don't they fly away!!" I told her that 'they couldn't yet fly', she looked me dead in the eye and said " well how'd they get up there then. Lol.

I was outside the pub last summer and in the distance you can see a solar farm.

Some Brummie holiday maker asked me if it was a lake.

I replied "What, on a hillside!"
