Bagged a plump .......

Maz, how does hunting fit in with Halal? By that of course I mean is it permissible to eat shot or hunted game?

As I understand it, it's permissible, as long as a blessing is said for the animal before it is hunted/shot.

Going on experience, you should hang it for about a week with feathers etc. intact (in a shed), then pluck and draw - it'll be lovely when roasted...

it is the maggots that add to the flavour.

I really should have picked up that badger I saw near Botley the other day...

That reminds me of a hulking great deer carcass i saw at the side of the road last year .
Cycling 15 miles with that over my shoulder would have been a challenge

Last summer there was a beauty of a pheasant lying rather motionless in the road opposite the cafe where we stop on the Gower. I asked the girl serving if they had a large carrier bag handy. When I explained why I wanted one she thought I was joking, Fairweather said I wasn't, and whilst we were having a coffee a car stopped and the driver picked the large bird up and put it in the boot of the car and drove off!!!!!!!

That's not fair game!

All's fair in love and war .

I'm not pheasant plucker,
I'm a pheasant plucker's mate.
I'm only plucking feathers
Because the pheasant plucker's late.
