Well, there you go!

Hi paddy

I'm out wed,thurs,fri and sat pretty local, should get a good grounding on what's occurring, should grass one or two.

Good luck! We tried to go out tonight, but had to turn back halfway to the farm due to the intense fog. :(

Cheers. Yep the fog was a menace down here a few weeks back, shut everything down, reverted back to the lamp for a few nights NV was whiteout whatever one I tried.

Out on the marsh tonight lambing patrol, Bagged two dog Foxes hour after dark, both around the 100 metre mark then the dreaded fog moved in, NV whiteout, changed to day scope and red lamp 30 metres max. :doh:

Found em with thermal, couldn't get on em, see six all together grassed two, early night again. :tiphat: Gotta know when your beat. - why are thermal rifle scopes so bloody dear ???? Could have cleaned up tonight

TI rifle scope on the bucket list. :rofl::rofl:

Looking on the bright side as normal, it means I gotta go back. :D

Talkng to a fellow Foxer in the gunshop today, he was just outside Ashford out lamping rabbits - two Cubs playing in the field

Well done, Chaps! We got fogged off before we even reached the farm on Tuesday, but managed half an hour last night (and 2 foxes) before the fog closed things down again.
