    The French pygmy setter I have here is a very quick dog, I think not only close to some setters in working style but also in temperament

    Smallfry, if you only want a dog to work a few short months of the year by all means. But I expect mine to hunt everything put in front of them. You small game hunters are a crackup

    EeeBees have you completed the forum incident report? The forum OH&S coordinator wants to analyse the risks and hazards associated with your incident in order to ensure that any safe hunting procedure oversights are turned into new trainings for our other members.

    Seriously now, take care and heal quickly. Maybe one of our more techo members could whip up a set of 12 gauge crutches.

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Hehehehehe thank you Rushy!!!!!

    The difficulty I see when doing a Risk Assessment etc is communicating with those who made the hole in the ground in the first place. There are a myriad of issue regarding that in itself...one...we do not share the squatters laws as in England so the rabbit who made the hole was obviously trespassing...its present location is not known. Two...what guidelines do they have to follow in the excavation procedures and if there are any did they follow the procedures and what about the location...the construction of the unit in that location is deemed outside any logical preference. The safety of those working the hole and inhabiting the hole is also a minefield due to its location....its too big, its just too big...
