Stupid posh twits

Headed into town this morning to feed the ducks when it occurred that the hunt would passing through seeing as it was Boxing Day. I remember going to see the hunt when we lived in Grantham, no idea how old I was, less than nine though. The spectacle has always remained with me. I especially like how the hounds just run amok. Surely you need a lead for those, sir.

So, we got offered mulled wine and xmas cake while we waited, the kids got super bored, but eventually we got to see hounds running amok and listen to posh Tory twits using the event as a soapbox to whine about how hard it is being a farmer these days. Don't know about you, but our stables are a real strain on the old budget. If only we could kill foxes in such a spectacularly overblown manner again everything would be dandy.

Anyway, as a spectacle it is still brilliant and the hunt is as visceral as ever, despite the fact they won't be catching any foxes, nope, not them. Absolutely no fox killing today.
