I have a pheasant that runs out when I go down the drive, my drive is not quite as posh as this one.

Mog,
The only pheasant I have ever handled was removed one from the front grill of my brand new 5 days old BMW 528i purchased in 1984 in Landstule Germany. I was on my way home to England on leave and got off the Autobahn at Aachen to fill up at the last BP site with coupons. When on the Ausfart, this 3lb fat little beggar flew out of the bushes and went strait into my grill.
The petrol attendant said he would take the bird to eat. It was still warm - Fresh..
They say when you get a new car - you always get a good ding in it at some point. I was just glad it did no real damage. Just a 100DM for a new Grill piece and I didn't get another one in the next 12 years before I sold it. Maybe it was my lucky Pheasant.
May you never get that close to your one. :)

MOG,
QUITE A MACHINE!!!!!!!!!!! I saw the you-tubes when they first got it running,, but to see it going down the drive, WOW,,,
I guess if you could catch the pheasant, it could be hung off of the exhaust side of the bonnet, and it would be defeathered and cooked in short order !!!!

my Pheasant ( Haggis ) is 5 year old, daft as a brush & I often pick him up just to annoy him as he thinks he is boss, but my OH has that title.


back to the Beast, wouldnt it be fun to have something like that, much more fun than a flat cap and wippet mobile.

In the US he would have had the neighborhood homeowners' association in a tizzy over the racket that thing makes ... It certainly looks like a very ritzy neighborhood that they were driving through.

Steve - that was a nice little detour from routine to start my day. I also looked at some Youtube footage and found quite a bit posted there.
Thanks!

I think that Great Britain just used up all its C02 production for 2 years according to the Kyoto treaty...
