It just occurred to me that tomorrow is the 12th of August, which I believe is the traditional day for opening pheasant season in Scotland. Is that right?

And I've sat here on my duff in 100 degree heat in Texas and missed it again. Rats. Please tell me I'm wrong.

Grouse season starts tomorrow.

Pheasants start October 1st

Ah! Thanks for that correction. It's still 102 degrees here this afternoon.

It's a good season to miss August.

Numbers are down and cancellations are rife.
