Put a cat flap in the gate with a slide right down to your house - instant dinner.

You could stand there menacingly and say to the rabbits:

Do you see any squirrels?
Do you see an hares?
Do you see any muntjac?
Why do you feel so lucky, bunny?

Aren't you supposed to add on the end... "and do you feel lucky bunny?" in a gravelly voice, whilst pointing a Magnum (isn't that an ice lolly?) or some such overly masculine firearm at the hapless bunny (who is so dim he clearly thinks he can make a run for it).

Or is my imagination just going into overdrive now?

Haven't done it yet, Rich the tractor (who's doing it with his digger) said 12"down and 6" out

Shouldn't he be Dick the Digger then?

I thought that was a hairy private eye, still it might work.

When I was a kid and went out rough shooting with my late Pa, I shot my first rabbit and promptly burst into tears and sobbed "Daddy, I've shot Thumper..."

Didn't last long though, by the time we got home and the said bunny was skinned and in the pot I'd forgotten all about it.

So let me get this straight for anyone who might be joining the thread at this point in time. We have suggested the following to Tahir:

He needs to bury his gate 6' in the ground, then sit on it wearing furry ear muffs, along with his mate Dickie Digger (who has hairy eyes), pointing a Magnum ice lolly and shouting "Do you feel lucky boy? But if you don't feel lucky that'll be 50p for you and a quid each for your mates - oh, and if you're after any squirrels, muntjac, hare or other such yobbos you'll not find 'em in here ".

And this will solve his rabbit problem.

Was that about right?

Why can't you just take out an ASBO on the bunnies?

An elegant summary, M-J. The legal training wasn't completely wasted, then?

They're not entitled to Legal Aid.

Aw shucks - this is what I spent years revising and sitting law exams for.
