Another Day They Cannot Take From Us

My apologies dear reader, I am somewhat late with my second report. It was a foggy day to say the least though the ducks done us proud once again.

We have refined a couple of the drives after the first shoot, we had some extra beaters, Mrs farmers Wife and Number One Daughter of Mine, they worked like Trojans a special well done to them.

Mrs Captain of Shoot also joined us, she is hoping to be a regular gun all of these ladies most certainly made for interesting conversation at lunch time, no stories of big game hunts from Teddy and Ozzy when they were boy soldiers in the Crimea, none of the exploits of Haystack. But things had to stop when scatter cushions were mentioned for the lunch hut.

There are always within lunch huts across the country higher levels of topics that we gentlemen guns attend to, most recently how stupid the video ref was at the rugby world cup, how much better arsenal are than chelsea, the price of wheat and/or barley and is it not about time that the countryside organizations forget the egos and get together under one organisation to speak up for all country pursuits.

All in all a rather good day.
