Vegans and shooting
Please note the “and”. Vegans AND shooting!
Last week I got a call from a local guy I knew who had trapped a coypu by his fishing lake. He wanted me to come over and break a hat in it’s bottom!
I went over, performed the aforementioned task, and conversation quickly went in a fishing direction. He has stocked his lake with carp, there’s plenty of roach, perch etc, and another guy has asked if he wants to go over and catch/remove the bream that have filled his lake!
He bought the house as he’d always wanted a fishing lake, did I fish? Come over anytime you want, I enjoy the company.
The only problem he has is the large number of copyu that come up from the local streams and undermine the banks of his lake. We chatted a little more which has ended up with me supplying him something to help control them. I then told him I had a great recipe for a pate you can make with the saddle meat.
”Oh no” he says “My wife and I are vegan, have been for five years now”.
I saw no hint of humour or leg-pulling in his face and pointed at the rather large carcass at our feet.
”Well I’m not going to eat it, am I?”
It takes allsorts.
Better to admit you walked through the wrong door than spend your life in the wrong room
