The Compassionate Crab

When not working as a development consultant or helping with the horses (see 'Carrotgate'), The Crab enjoys foreign travel more than anything else. When abroad, The Crab is naturally drawn to the coast, where he loves nothing more than to enjoy local cultures, scuttling in the shallows and mixing with the native peoples. Here we see The Crab frolicking in the Mediterranean with a local boy.

Credit Crunch - Droitwich FarmGuard LTD

Close friend to and admirer of The Crab, David Chugwell (see previous posts) is not immune to the effects of the Credit Crunch. Even with a successful fencing and plant hire business, Dave has made the decision to take an additional evening job in order to keep the wolf from the door. Known for his courage and hard-line attitude to criminals, Dave has taken his role as the head of Agricultural Security for the South Droitwich area very seriously, helping many local farmers with a variety of night time problems.

Credit Crunch - Migrant Workers Suffer

The Snooty Greek MFH (Mostly Found Hunting) / AKA the Snooty Greek / The Snob etc, having held down a high powered job in central London for some time, is prudently keeping an eye on any emplyment opportunities, to ensure that he does not become a victim of the current economic crisis........ Not a natural mixer and easily unnerved in pressure situations, The Snob thought it wise to take advantage of UK equal opportunity laws, by arriving at a recent interview in his native dress. Sadly for him, Sav.ills are not recruiting at present and decided not to offer The Snob a position. 

Taxi Crab

Having driven since his teenage years, The Crab is responsible, focused and alert at all times when behind the wheel.

End of the Shooting Season - Left and Right for The Crab

In recent years, The Crab has taken a real interest in shooting and whilst he lacks the coordination necessary to become a truly competent shot, his enthusiasm and general joie de vivre, means that he is regularly invited to join shoots across the country. During his time at The Royal Agricultural College in Cirencester, The Crab was very much a newcomer to the sport. One evening The Crab was boasting to his housemates that he had successfully achieved a left and right at duck earlier that day - and that they were hanging in the shed - here we see one housemate shortly after visiting the shed and discovering that The Crab had misunderstood the sporting terminology and had devoured two plump mallard in quick succession, much to the frustration of Mr Steady Frank Thoroughgood who had shot them the day before.
