Shooting wild creatures with anything other than a camera seems wrong and bad to me... but of course I grew up in the Yorkshire countryside so what do I know?Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6367416329197066280.post-80936555721622865592017-01-30T16:10:31.615+00:002017-01-30T16:10:31.615+00:00If it was a public path, he was breaking the law.If it was a public path, he was breaking the law.Derek Faulknerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05140363868104172311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6367416329197066280.post-18123670018840588312017-01-30T15:14:17.643+00:002017-01-30T15:14:17.643+00:00Reminds me of the time I was running on the Salter...Reminds me of the time I was running on the Salter Path heading for Bowland when I found myself under fire. I had forgotten it was the glorious twelfth. A bad tempered bull faced man with a shotgun emerged from a hide in the heather and told me to piss off, which I did. Back in the direction I'd come from.
