As a council estate kid, mother worked in Mill dad in foundry and I'm a rat catcher.....i can heartily recommend it.....yes at a few pack you will meet posh people, you will meet people who want to be posh but the vast majority are working class just like you and me. And that's just the mounted followers, the foot and car followers are all solid fieldsports people and salt of the earth 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The mounted packs don’t really compare to fell or border packs for following. South notts always get a good turn out on Boxing Day. At a guess around 1000? just a few mile from me car colston stunning little village..my son just finished there nursery ....was going to go Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Given the area this pack hunts, I should think most would have had connections to the mining industry before its demise. of the mounted riders there's Welders, postmen, office workers and men and women from all walks of life. its not about class its about tradition and long may it continue.

Not got a clue about what area it is. Long live tradition but you will never change a society that's always had a class divide & England is the worst for it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
