Any time Guy :biggrin:

As I have said before Kevin Daley does an absolute corker of a job with his taxidermy and this is no exception, I had the place picked for it if you didn't want it :mrgreen:

This one in particular has such a unique look and with its sideburns on either side you just couldn't let it go to waste 8)

How about showing the rest of your trophies on that rack?

That's a nice mount mate

Wow Guy, He is a freak :shock: . I wonder if he was a greying ranga who got behind on his hair cuts or whether he was always that shaggy right though his youth? He could be from the '70s :lol: . Steve

Get those pix blown up and mounted and run them along your hall, because that is as good as it gets.
Well done both of you.
