Mike, I've moved over to ql-chat - just in case ! Hungry, me ? I'm afraid that I don't actually have to hunt to eat. I have a perfectly good set of local farm shops, and farmer's markets which I frequent when the need to feed the freezer arises.
As for digging a trench - you've abviously never tried digging a trench through Heather roots, if you had, you'd know better than to suggest it. Too much like hard work. I did try decoying them once, but mixed results - it seems to work best in the breeding season, but then, you're not allowed to kill them then - and for good reason. Seems that when the season starts proper, the little beggars know and seem to be able to recognise the decoys. I tend to prefer stalking them - I've had better results that way, and it's more 'man against nature' as well. :o) Norman. PS. How long before someone else chimes in I wonder ....... ------------------------------------- Norman Dunbar Database/Unix administrator Lynx Financial Systems Ltd. mailto:Norman.Dunbar@;LFS.co.uk Tel: 0113 289 6265 Fax: 0113 289 3146 URL: http://www.Lynx-FS.com ------------------------------------- -----Original Message----- From: Mike MacNamara [mailto:ql@;macnamaras.com] Sent: Thursday, November 07, 2002 1:25 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [ql-users] Development norman you must get hungry, try digging a narrow trench, 6" wide x about 2' deep on the south facing side of a steep hill, put some treacle mixed with oats in the bottom, and leave overnight. You will find this catches them, once in the hole they can't walk backwards. You can then dispatch them with the bow and arrow.
