I have been to Gun Village today.   ;D

Guns...  Drool:

I am going shooting tomorrer like...  eveilgrin:

Given the areas Tipsy has been visiting of late, I suspect it's more likely shooting up is taking place rather than shooting pheasant/grouse

Anyhoo...I shot her favourite Robin red breast, along with  a few tree rats... whistle:

I used to shoot at Norton Barracks, dont know if you know it.  Its gone now.  Think there is a housing estate on there now.  And my Uncles used to lean a 12 bore in the corner of the living room behind the chair.  As far as I know it was for pigeons and rats.

My neck now or one of my other necks?

Why do woods have necks?

It's an Americanism ~ a corruption in fact of 15th Century English when a "Neck of Land" was a narrow strip that joined two larger pieces of land ~ as in a neck joining the head to the body.
The new settlers in America were determined to not use such "English" and to their mind outdated expressions and used "Your Neck of the Woods" to describe a neighbourhood.
They "invented" many other words or rather adapted the usage to better suit their purpose.

Or at least that's what my reference books tell me.
