The last time I went we went island hopping off Orkneys. I took my old collie grey who I still have today but is 17 years old and on his last legs. I have given up the running dogs now. My only hunting is mooching with a catty for a few woodys or longtails or what ever. But that poaching blood never leaves you, that naughtness, that adrenaline is still there I always think. Some pics of my last trip when my dog was still able do a bit. Good memories fellah,...Halcyon Days, eh.. Edited September 15, 2023 by OldPhil 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The son in law owns a patch of land on Sanday I have told him not to sell it as one day it might be his escape from the shithole of Rotherham. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

When I went there was 2 pubs on island one open one shut, a chippy that only opened on certain days . One farm that gave us permo had an ambulance on it and was the islands resident ambulance. I have fond memories of that trip as it was the last big trip I had with my long term hunting partner of over 30 yrs before he sadly died of cancer a few years later. He had been to Scotland with me numerous times and we had numerous escapades out poaching over the years . But the memories live on 4 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
