Where have all the ferreters /lurcher men gone in and around the bristol district ?

i started hunting many years ago and used to hunt with lurchers /shotguns or ferrets 3 or 4 times a week but slowly we all got wives and kids etc and had to work more to keep them we all drifted apart etc so hunting was then once a week on my own if i was lucky so now the kids are all grown up iv got more time and iv got my 13year old son in to it now with his own lurcher and ferrets etc and he loves it so was wondering if there is any other 40 something old gits out there still doing it in and around the bristol area that may need a hand one day with the odd bit of ferreting etc ( thornbury kingswood downend winterbourn side of bristol)

Theres a few people at it down here,, But not so many online.

 

More people around here seem to sit on the back of landrovers and shoot everything in sight,, And leave nothing for us,, or make everything lamp shy. :censored:
