But we have a nice lunch of Pheasant and now I can tell the difference between roe deer poo and sheep poo!

Do they taste different then ?

That reminds me, do you want the hide dismantling, or do you think the cows won't bother it? I'm letting them in there on Thursday.

Jack: you lucky man! Will 2009 be the year I learn to shoot?

Enjoy the pheasant, however it's cooked.

If Alison allows it, I'll be doing some 'shooting for beginners' at the Easter thing; if there are too many campers and sheep at the farm for it, there are clay grounds and a rifle range in the area we could use.

BB: I think you've just talked me into booking for it. And this may be the way to get the old chap interested, too.

Can you bring that nice little low-recoil gun again, please?

BB that will be fine.

If we use the same area as last time that won't interfere with any campers.

It's still there somewhere, but I'll be bumping it after the current round of festivities are over.
