Hello everyone.

This was first broadcast in 2010 but is now available again on the iPlayer. I'm assuming there are plenty of BB fans on here. I know I am. He's the only writer I've come across who writes about hunting/fishing in a way that really resonates emotionally. He writes about how it feels. In the words of an ex-member of the SD, he didn't just go hunting, he went on pilgrimage to the hunt.

Pine Martin,

Thanks for posting the link, I have a number of BB's books and appreciate how he encapsulates his experiences in words.
