One question and then the person who gets it right asks the next question

no cheating   

Good Luck



The ring-ousel belongs to which family of birds?

[doganjo]

It's easy to cheat -Google says it's a thrush

[CameronS]

now you can do a question

[sandy]

You can get cream to get rid of Thrush

[doganjo]

No I cheated so I can't do the next question and I am going to ignore that lowering of the tone!

Have you caught your burgulars yet, Cameron!

[Wizard]

Not common around here they are about as common as Chough's 

[sandy]

No ???Better not!!! Just love having birds in the garden..

[CameronS]

still not caught the culprit, had to clear up paint and shavings, however i have had another hen added to my flock the past twice they have been moved

[doganjo]

That is weird - people moving your birds to the feed bin and leaving one in the coop as compensation? Very strange.

OK I'll join the quiz - nice easy one

What do the initials HPR stand for?  You're not allowed to answer, Sandy, nor you Jackie

[Wizard]

I'll ask Godfrey if his latest Gun dogs understand "Fetch it yer sen you shot it"

[jameslindsay]

Hunt, Point and Retrieve by any chance?

[Wizard]

Thats what I'm betting James.When I have been in Godfrey's company I am sure he has mentioned HPR in respect to his Golden Retriever's work outs down at Newsum Lake I went a couple of years ago I cannot do the walk up though.Not got enough puff or energy

[Wizard]

Is it the correct answer Annie?

[doganjo]

Yes, there are a number of continental breed which do everything required in the field - Hunt for game, Point it, hold the game to allow the gun to ready his gun and move into range, game is flushed then shot, then the dog Retrieves.  I have 5 HPRs.  4 Brittanys (Epagneul Francais) and a German Wirehaired Plonker.
