A day with The Dumfriesshire and Stewartry Hunt

After a successful  night lamping rabbits on the dumfriesshire hills, my mate Tom and i decided to support the local hunt who on this occasion set off from a farm just a few miles from the center of lockerbie.


After a generous donation from Tom we set off on foot to the top of the areas highest peak to watch this very traditional spectacle, we walked a good distance then jumped on quad bikes and even ended up leading the hunt masters horse back to the yard. Everyone we met was grateful for our help and support and without Frans damson gin { which was the only fuel we had all day } i don't think we would have made it to the end. After being split up for most of the day Tom and i got back to the farm yard at around six pm knackered but happy. We said our goodbyes and promised to return, If your not feeling the christmas cheer yet then arrange to follow a hunt for the day you soon will be. Ho Ho Ho
