Yep, redlegs are a doddle to breed as they are a calm, tame type of bird.
The greys are wild and jumpy.

Nothing beats rising a large brood of greys and seeing them away! Magic.
The greys are quite like grouse in their flight and behaviour.

Just dropped the tractor in to be serviced never seen as many new hand signals from car drivers on the road.It seems if ya don't pull in straight away to let them by they get very irate,overtaking on continuous white lines,bad bends and blind spots up a hill are perfectly safe places to overtake for most cars I met today.lunatics a small bit of manners wouldn't go astray.

Was stuck behind a combine last week, I had to watch the on coming traffic through a hole through the combine, gob****es behind me were pulling out to try and see what was coming.

the roads near home are peppered with cyclists and one day coming around a nasty bend isn't there some gob****e trying to overtake one of em. I had to stop dead and so did he...I think he must of got some shock to see me coming at him cause he stalled the car trying to get going again

Poor enough. But twas bound to trickle down I spose. Lads just can't afford to pay what there worth with so much uncertainty.
Plus you meet some of the most ignorant people at the mart. They'd boil your blood.
