Not knowing much about burning Heather (CeeDee seems to know a lot about this!) I can't really make a comment about that. I just have a very simple outlook regarding bloodsports. Any sport which involves killing or distressing any animal should be banned outright..and as soon as possible. And I would include horse racing in that too. The present fox hunting 'ban' is a joke, and the law is complicit in the flouting of that ban. Glorious twelfth my a*se.
