Advice required

A mate of mine has offered me 8 venison legs for 50 quid.

Is that too deer?

You seem to have been quiet for a while - going through a bit of a fallow spell?

If you're still worried about the price, challenge him on it, maybe he'll Buck his ideas up, he's clearly been in a Rut. You may have to Fawn over him for a while though.

Re: Advice required

Sounds like a rip-off to me. EIGHT LEGS ??? Surely that's just a couple of bucks ???

Re: Advice required

We're running out of one liners - so heres multi line deer joke !!

A man took his wife deer hunting for the first time. After he explained
the basics to his wife, he told her the most important piece of information:

"Whenever you shoot something, make sure to claim it right away or the
first person who gets to your kill can claim it as their own, so be
quick if we want to have deer meat in the refrigerator! "

So they departed to their deer boxes and waited for some deer. Minutes
later he heard his wife's gun go off. The husband decided to make sure
she went to claim her kill instead of giving it away to someone. When he
got to his wife she was arguing with another man. When he finally got to
his wife the man was shouting waving his hands in the air:

" Okay! lady, this is YOUR deer, but do you mind if I take my saddle
off your deer before you take it away?!?! "
