... There was even a report of an ancestor being a gamekeep & he and his son (with same name) being shot by poachers ...


Those poachers!!  I had an ancestor whose house was dynamited by a man he caught poaching rabbits.  I found this information through the Gale Newspaper Archive.

There are nuisance poachers on RootsChat, too.

you rang ;D ;D ;D

as for poacher's shooting game keepers, that works both ways, was shot at several times in the past for poaching, lucky for me he was a cr*p shot ;D ;D ;D

It hardly seems helpful, when RC is running slow, to start an unnecessary thread stating the obvious.

dont help with stupid comments like that, seems to me you have a chip on your shoulder cos your always moaning about what people put ??? ???

Thanks, Rabbit  :)

I'm left handed - verging on ambidextrous and am a touch typist (sister taught me when I was 15 which I'm eternaly grateful for) but I use my mouse in my right hand and my graphics pen in my left   and I can't use my pen hand properly, which I use to do the detailed work  ::)

Never mind - he's a cracking chap  :)

Hi Gadget,

I am a bit ambidextrous too, I had to learn when I had the same op on the other hand, but it doesn't make it easy till you have cracked it does it! Yes it is a lovely picture but where are the smiling Irish eyes?
Did touch typing at night school and hated it!  but it stands you in good stead always

How did you scald your hand?

Rabbit B  :)

making rabbit pie ;D ;D ;D
