Re: Politics, news and stuff.

Some good pictures on your link - amazing one of tern chicks taken from cache of American mink - pity the mink cull being organised on local islands has been postponed - don't mind "nature" that's cruel at times but life, but not imported escapees - many of whom were released by supposed &...

Re: Politics, news and stuff.

Longshanks - chippy by choice? I had hoped to raise the (usual) level of forum chat - but I see it's pointless and will retire, like so many before me, with dignity intact and leave you to your somewhat rigid views rather than welcome debate.

Info on Clay shoot please?

I missed the Clay shoot held locally last year about October time and shall be grateful if anyone can let me have details on the event, whether this is held annually, part of a larger event, location etc?
Very many thanks
