My other post should give a clue!

I'm guessing you're up in Moray for some fishing?

Cromdale ... doing a good job of emptying the river so far! Since I arrived on Wednesday we have had around 40 salmon and numerous Sea Trout. And make a sizeable dent in the Whisky stockpile too!

Nice one! I need to get organised and head down to Cromdale and reduce the rabbit population.

Its a very unfortunate grey that crosses my path when i've got a shotgun or 22 in my hand. We hammer them in order to protect the reds.

Met this little gentleman while shooting at Warcop in Cumbria yesterday.

Very sad news when it died, I believe as a result of a collision with a Post Office van, reported overseas too by Fox News in the States, though admittedly it was probably a 'quiet news day'. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/engl ... 374874.stm

When I was working in the "wid" doing some thinning of Norway Spruce I dropped a tree and was snedding up it like a mad man and came across a squirrels nest. There was only one youngish one in it. Me being me I tried to catch it jumper over it tried to gab it man are they vicious. Eventually it got on a tree and very adeptly managed to keep it between me and its self until it was out of reach. I dropped a few more trees and was again snedding up it when I cut a wasps bike in half with the saw that was a quick exit there and then.
