Deker 3,478 Posted March 7, 2009 Report Share Posted March 7, 2009 Just started Deer Mentoring a new guy in Feltham, went over to some land he has this morning in somewhere like Halsey (I think) a bit south of the RHS Wisley Gardens. Anyway, arrived, only to find the local Hunt was about to start ...all the lads and lasses in their kit, 2 Police Range Rovers, and a caravanette of protesters (more like hiking, tree hugging, dog walking 70's throwbacks...but they had the hair and attitude). It was a drag hunt...but if the dogs get hold of a scent and take off somewhere else, well, what can you do!!! Unfortunately this rather screwed up our stalk but was fun to watch for a while, we strolled around for a bit and found a mixxy rabbit which I was implored to shoot with my .243. Time passed and nothing else to be seen except 2 coppers on foot, full uniform, stabbies, high viz and a serious sweat...they stopped and asked if we saw where they went....."who????"..... "the protestors".... "they went that way"...it was only then as they turned away to charge after them they noticed the hardware hanging over our shoulders..."and what are you doing here" they asked..."game control"..."oh, Ok then" and off they sped! Funny old world!! Quote Link to post
