    I spent a night (a bloody cold winter night too) in the Wicklow mountains after getting the car stuck in a ditch avoiding a deer.

    I killed the dog of one of my friend's neighbours. Stupid dog used to chase cars and anything else that passed by the house. After years of chasing cars the animal finally caught one, mine.

    That and the obligatory hedgerow birds. A few rats as well, always try to get them when the run out in front of the car, horrible things.

    I was once going down the N8 between Cashel and Mitchelstown, I came onto a straight and there was 4/5 crows 300/400 yards down along directly in my path. All but one hopped off to the side. The last one stood there and stared with one beady eye. I was thinking, any second now he's going to do something. At the last split second, he spread his wings, got half a foot off the ground, and splat! Darwinism functions.

    Have taken down a crow and a rabbit, and possibly other small creatures. Didn't give a damn about the crow, but did feel a bit weirded out by the rabbit.

    Also had a near miss with a cow which ended up with the cow surviving and me turning the car on it's side and writing it off :eek: Hitting the cow would have been equally bad though - 600kg of beef coming through the windscreen would not be good.

    dont beleive it, ive gotten negative rap for this informative topic :) with comments to the effect of "naughty, bad bad man and cruelty to animals". I live in rural Kerry where its as agent Smith would say "inevitable" that u hit an animal eventually and for the 2 rabbits and 1 pheasant (ahem... and the suicidal dog i gave a headache to) I have gone out of my way to miss countless others.... and cruelty to animals????? whoever said that come on... cruelty to an animal would be to pin it to the ground then starting from the bottom up drive slowly over its legs, then lower body then upper body (all the while making sure its still alive) then turning its head to face the wheel (so it sees it coming) and crawl over it till crunch (dont attempt this with a cow unless u have a tractor... a big tractor).... that would be cruelty to an animal. lol....

    EDIT: just read the rep thread on the after hours section.... I was under the impression that a person with a certain amount of neg rep points gets banned... but its cool now cos i was worried about being banned.... i dont mind ppl giving me neg rep points if it means i wont be banned :)

    LOL

    I wouldn't really worry. I got negative rep for making a comment about the idiot who got caught driving an uninsured car without having a drivers licence.
    The comment left was:- "couldn't resist the righteous indignation although he expressly requested only informative replies - pickarooney" :rolleyes:
