Hi pete, I remember when I was in the rif raf, many moons ago, and fishing the River Welland in Rutland late into the evening with Woods behind me and I heard a Fox scream like a Banshee. It must have been about 50 yards behind me and that sound made my blood run cold, I kid you not. When I...

Dreadful idea @NigelJ but quite right .Hare was my grandmother's favourite meat. I couldn't possibly think of trapping and eating it tho......altho I thought that way about the deer until they started decimating my garden. By the sounds of things @wiseowl I have everything in my garden to keep...

No need, Loki, FC and I are good buddies.
