  1. I really can't see what the great problem is here. What they are posing with are renewable resources and, one would assume, are a managed commodity.

     

    If a country can gain financially from their wildlife management then good luck to them. What is the difference between these trophy shots and a picture of a dead salmon from the Tweed?

  2. Not sure whether this is an example of the 'rose tinted syndrome' but the modern day 'Times' and 'Mail' bear little resemblance to their former selves. Is it the contributors? Who can forget such writers as Bill Keal, Tom Williams, Dick Walker, DCF, FJ etc. Now it seems we are stuck with that pseudo countryman Des Taylor. As for their use of alliteration....enough said!

     

    Come to think of it the monthlies are not much better. Same old thing churned out.....Julian Cundiff rearranging the same article.....Tony Miles has churned out the same stuff for years. I could go on! Grrr!

  3. Good stuff.....waiting for the last strip of wheat to be cut and trying to catch the rabbits: moving the last bales in the stack and the mayhem that followed with sticks, dogs, men and kids flying in all directions after the rats: fishing in 'bottomless' pits: riding a 350 Matchless(brakeless) around the fields: making bows and arrows....et al. Fantastic times.

  4. Rabies has been carried by Daubenton's bats in this country since dot. It's only that the authorities have chosen not to divulge this information that there is such 'shock, horror' to the news.
