I had a call recently to clear some rabbits from the local park Icon_biggrin_smiley75 They had dug under the cenotaph steps and were generally causing a right mess.

After having a good look aroud it appeared that there were 3 holes at the front and a well hidden bolt hole at the back in amongst the plants Icon_bye1


In went 'Daddy Cool' (The pic of her was taken earlier this week)

And out came two rabbits within about 5 minutes after lots of thumping around underneath! They were despatched and off we went to the next set - under the shed where all the tools are kept. It was the first time Ive set my new longnet properly (Made by Mole Catcher from THL Icon_biggrin_smiley75 ) and a damn good net it is too!



In went Daddy Cool again and we got four out of the net within 15 minutes - we had a few public spectators too which was a bit un-nerving (hence the lack of action shots Icon_angry ) but I had my written permission just in case! I phoned the park warden who came and took four of the rabbits off my hands Icon_bye1 and the dogs are still enjoying the last two!

Well - it is christmas eve after all! And what a great way to spend the morning!

It turns out one of the onlookers phoned the police Icon_blink They've just been to my mates door (We went in his car) and informed him that you need permission to hunt!! Icon_59 He was pleased to let them know that we're all above board and have all the necessary paperwork to back it up! Icon_biggrin_smiley75 The police want us to take all our permission to them so they have a copy for the next time we're there - no problem Icon_good Especially if it means we dont get hassle!!
