First day on our DIY low ground shoot yesterday. Blue skies and no wind meant we had to pick our birds but had stunning views. 64 head, 6 species, all game taken home by guns and beaters. Good to get together again

dailymail.com/debate/article… Obviously slavery was and is abhorrent, and I’m no fan of the Daily Mail..but Lord Hannan of Kingsclere writes a huge amount of sense on a wide range of topics in a number of channels and I was directed to this excellent piece, facts over emotion:

DANIEL HANNAN: Why Britain is being targeted for slavery reparations

This has gone far enough. The countries coming after us for slavery reparations, mainly Caribbean states but also some in Africa, are not just rude and ungrateful.

Portsoy harbour before the Odyssey film buff tourists turn up, by us round the corner at Sandend they have had to take all of the Sunnyside Beach and Findlater Castle signs down to avoid them being nicked, this hasn’t happened round here since Local Hero in the 1980s @PegFluff

My roe doe coloured cocker spaniel proving better at bringing them in than my calling! 🤷‍♂️ A nice young/middle aged buck (I think I know him of old and it’s only his fourth head) so one to leave. Grey face or spectacles a sign of old age a myth
