    Bummer. Perhaps you have wiped out the possum population. I haven't got any for a long while.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    Are hedgehogs pests? I see a few sniffing around when I'm out at night and always just leave them be.

    Cats are another one I don't deal to because most of the properties I shoot on aren't huge and I don't want to deal to a neighbours cat (even when I'm 95% sure they're feral). There were about a dozen of them out on a shoot recently. Might have to have a chat to the farmer and neighbours.

    hedge hogs kill many young gamebirds and also feed on eggs.

    Slow day?

    If you need a break write PTO on both sides of a piece of paper, then start reading.
