I have truckloads on my bit of land. Every year the same. Massive things as well, never seen anything like them elsewhere. Not a mushroom in sight though :slightly_frowning_face:

Depends if you’re shooting to kill, I suppose.

It’s there from about 1970! Never gives any bother

Only spotting this now. Whoever gave you that gift obviously holds you in high regard.

In other news, snipe season tomorrow.

The butcher gave me a fine bag of the suet on Friday. I’m currently making beef dripping, and the smell is taking me back to my youth. I’ll be making treacle bread with the dripping.

Powerful stuff.

Enjoy the heart attack.

Surely better than vegetable oils? The saturated fats in beef dripping are now deemed to be good for you.

Was out for a walk with aul lad yesterday when remarked at the lack of rabbits to be seen this year.

When I thought about it I realised I don’t see too many about recently.
Even the cunts who were grazing my lawn and tearing the yard up seem to have disappeared from view for past few months.

Anyone else notice this?

Don’t even know where your lawn is mate

The third hit suffered by the rabbit population was in 2019 when rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease (RHD) struck. A form of viral hepatitis, the disease is highly contagious, highly infectious and nearly always lethal. It was first identified in China in 1984 and is now believed to be endemic in most parts of the world.

Not a great sight if you have a lock of chickens or hens but a noble animal.
I’d be very loathe to shoot one of them but then they don’t bother me.

Same here, they’ve never brought a calf on me so they’re welcome.
