Anyhow I had a coule of family commitments through the week but got up to see Paul (Piggy) who very graciously guided me around a place to which he has access. Didn't take a bow himself but a video camera - and if anything shows up on funniest home videos.......well - there was this one bit where I could have sworn blind (that being the operative word) that a nice big fat bunny was about 25m off with his back to me. So I commence stalking in. Sticking out like the proverbials on a junk yard dog. I think I was being filmed......stalking what ended up being a curled over piece of bracken fern that looked exactly like a big fat bunny with its back to me. Embarrassed? Moi?
Anyhow - thanks to Piggy for the walk and the company. Very much appreciated mate. Learned a lot more about what to look for and hopefully after I get my eyes tested I can tell the difference between bracken and bunnies......
Still I did manage to teach my boy and one of his cousins how to sharpen broad heads and make a bowstring so the week wasn't wasted. And, as I had my electric drill for the purpose of making the bowstring my mother in law decided it was a good time for new curtains....so the drill would be useful. Shame I didn't take any bits with me. They soon fixed that and I have a full set of new bits!!
