There is no time that's wasted when you are away in Kerry. No sooner as I'd arrived we were out driving down deserted water logged lanes collecting Black sallys for the hares. The hares like nothing better than a "Sally". They strip them bare, it's unbelievable. The picture show Ray and Paddy loading the truck up with the branches. I can confirm that the Kerrymen have never heard of a Risk Assessment. The blade on the cutting tool ensured you kept your distance!!! After the first day of coursing we helped drive the hares in for worming and checking. It was like a military operation. It does not matter about your background every one helps. Mike Mckenna owner of College Causeway, Killahan Phanter and Droopys Noel was driving them down to us at the bottom part of the run. Ray had his own technique that he assured us was well practised. It involved consistently tripping over the fence, shouting oh shit and waving his 1970's style bomber jacket. I was not totally convinced but then again it was working.
