shovel leaner 7,650 Posted December 15, 2020 Report Share Posted December 15, 2020 We had better hope hunting continues in one way or another. It’s the thin end of the wedge , if it goes , shooting is next . I don’t think parliament has the time or inclination to listen to any hunting related bills at the moment. It looks like it’s “ death by a thousand cuts”. A mates son was keepering at Ramsbury recently , so there is a shoot there . The hunts sometimes don’t help themselves when they go places they are asked not to . From a keepering perspective, while I enjoy a days hunting I’m always glad when they have gone because they do disturb the place . So it may be that the owner was just fed up of them and this was the last straw . 2 1 Quote Link to post
