With guns?
Guns are for shooting parties (sorry, shooting-parties, not shooting actual parties. Unless they're loud, tacky chav parties. In which case that's ok. But I digress).

I'm talking about hunting with hounds, sat astride a heavy hunter, capable of going for hours without stopping, clad in jodhpurs and pinks, with a hipflask of home-made sloe gin for sustenance. Then go home, muddy, exhausted and happy, and clean off in a steaming bath, with another sloe gin to keep the chill out.

Mmmmmm. Am going back to the country homestead in two days, can't wait! Mind you, drag hunting is nowhere near as good as going after proper foxes. But, you know, sometimes a fox will happen to stray across our path anyway, and you can't get the hounds away after that...
