Title: Re: OT politcs Post by: Robert HM on February 17, 2006, 10:29:53 PM Memories flood back of Willie Whitelaw shooting one of the beaters on a grouse shoot. He didn't seem to understand the problem, it was what they were paid for after all. You just can't get good servants nowadays.
Title: Re: OT politcs Post by: Rod Paradise on February 17, 2006, 10:57:28 PM Memories flood back of Willie Whitelaw shooting one of the beaters on a grouse shoot. He didn't seem to understand the problem, it was what they were paid for after all. You just can't get good servants nowadays. I was hit twice as a beater.... once I was quite far away - the pellets didn't hurt, but on caught me in hte lip & burst it, no harm done though. The second time the shooter shot forward after the warning horn had been sounded - the ball of shot whizzed past me apart from a pellet which hit the frame of my specs, knocking them off my face. I started straight for the shooter - intending to insert my beaters flag as far up Lord HawHaw's fundament as possible - but was grabbed by 2 of the gamekeepers. They wouldn't let me near the clown (beaters were to only speak when spoken to by the guests - flag insertion would have been a social faux pas. Anyway the clown was kicked off straight away, on the 2nd day of his 2 week shoot - no refund, over £10K blown.... still wanted to hit him though- idiot could have killed me.
