It is true, we Brits have much larger cocks than you Yanks.

If you are here in November, give me a call - I may well be able to drag you around with a spaniel in search of some birds. I'll be pleased to lend you whatever kind of gun you like - as long as it is English and the barrels correctly configured.

It very much depends on the weather - if it is not cold in northern Europe, we won't have any numbers of birds to shoot. If it IS cold there, we will.
