Wee bit of an update- we went stalking yesterday and encountered 10 reds but all hinds and no stags-
, so we decided to put finishing touches to our hide/tower. We were in the process of hammering old carpets and visqueen to the floor and walls to make it water/wind and noise proof when I looked out of the hide to the right and there at 180yrds out was a roe buck contently browsing the trees.
I attempted to crawl 'army style' along the tussocks (much to Ewich's amusement) to get the rifle out of the car which was 10yrds away but Mr Buck carried on munching before disappearing back into the wood before I could get sorted. Mr Buck was totally unphased by the presence of the motor or our work activities.
Now the hide is totally, totally finished it is to be put to good use.
