I have cast forth a light breeze, attempting to create a ripple. I have received the whirlwind and a tempest upon the sea.
It has always been my desire and motive to dig deeper into the marvels of all things Ransome.
It is sad to see how many times, with so many diverse interesting topics, it once again degenerates into personalities, bickering, and in-fighting among the contestants, the very thing I was trying to avoid.
This is hardly the forum for hasseling the legal ramifications of fox hunting, or of gun ownership for hunting purposes or any other purposes, for that matter.
But I am enlightened to see how the concept of fox hunting I had confused with the sport of Hound Trailing. I can see how one can become a part of the exciting emotions that the dogs eagerly display as they pour out their hearts for the achievement of the final goal.
To be a part of this must have been worth admonitions from the G.A. with their once again being late for a meal.
