Happy New Year!
And I have pledged not to buy any more Parkers until next year.
And on the first day of the new year I am taking my seven month old Ginger out by herself; leaving the older dogs at the house. This will be her first time to hunt without other dogs. I am looking forward to it. She has been backing, pointing, and retrieving to hand. She just doesn't get much of a chance to find the birds before the big dogs do.
My shooting student Joe Wood is staying with the women and children as it is going to be a little bit cold. I hope he sees your pictures Richard and skulks about in shame.
Best,
Mike
