Peter,
You are totally correct. However it should be noted that once the 3rd generation arrives the father becoomes the grand father, son becomes father and the new son is never right!!!!! We all know that Grandfathers are never right the simply do whatever makes the grandson happy. In this particular case grandson agreees with his father
it also becomes apparent that with the advent of becoming a grandparent also comes senility and the inability to do basic maths. There is no doubt that as of close of shooting sunday Dad was one bird down and one rabbit up. As to his shooting and dogs work well we have no witness so its all very questionable except that we could verify the rabbitt was full of mixo, blind and NOT eaten by man or dog. His dogs steadiness would also be oipen to question give his past performance on rabbits
In future I think I will photograph all game taken to verify numbers.
This debate is sure to continue thru the generations.
