The deer have a lorra land unfenced to wander. There are supposed to be 2 separate herds. We have seen prolly 100 of em in one go, just gotta get the right time..and that obviously wasn't it. (θ‿θ)
A woopa trip Def not happening any time soon dabs. Whenever I git to 100,000 the boike will be gettin some well earned fettling time to remain scruffy by mechanically wonderful for an udder 100,000.
LH, I find jam and cheams to be a robust bikskit, resistant to heat and vibration so great for a pootle. Damn the expense...50p a pack....that's 5p/bikskit. Sometimes if we are on a save the custard creams will come instead...never checked but gotta be aboot 2.5p/bikskit.

The rut is the mating season, which for red deer begins in September and lasts until around early November

Not been on boike since the very day of my last post in this ear thread. .
Pootling waits for no man and must resume regardless so me n T managed 100 miles today taking the boike past 99,000.
Went and had lunch on Hungerford common with the koes. Then decided we wanted to see what the difference atwix villages Straight Soley and Crooked Soley, so we went to both...turns out not much difference.
