Three more months...happy days

Beaters finished a drive. picture by Kat

Pheasant shoot days are back with us.
Three months of sporting days ahead. Fantastic.
Of-course we’ve had quite a few days already, but it’s the next three months that I look forward to most.
I am very lucky that my wife Kat (short for Karen) enjoys the country life as much as I do.
Whether she is covering me if I am away by feeding pheasants in August, dealing with enquiries, or joining me on a shoot day, socializing with old and new friends. Or (as happened last week), helping a rather worried keeper out by taking his landrover to the edge of a drive to stop pheasants bleeding out of one corner and then returning in time for elevenses and a very well earned sloe gin.
For us shooting is all about enjoying a day in the countryside with friends. And at the end of the day, we like to drop into the pub in our village on the way home. Dogs steaming away by the fire. A nice glass of red. And that great feeling of relaxing after a day outdoors.
Three more months……happy days!
