I suppose they go quickly into the deep freeze for future consumption ;) your point is well taken, John =)

I think it a fine present, as surely the game has to be shot by someone, getting it ready for cooking, and we all know the princes to be compasionate hunters. Still I do hope, this is not the only present from granny :-)). Merry Christmas to you John, and to all Royal Anecdotians, looking forward to next meeting after christmas!

I've wandered around it myself a number of times. There is though an area around the castle which is private and also some Royal farms, as at Sandringham. The pics of them shooting were taken by paparazzi with long lenses and then further blown up by the look of them. Greycella, Windsor Great Park is open to the public.
