Ah Shaw, on the subject of showing respect by way of trying "a damn sight harder to get your facts right" Have you got any further down the track regarding:

- those who planted all that "unnatural" heather?
- those who "farm" grouse?
- where "flocks" of grouse can be seen?
- where "rampaging packs of vicious dogs" feature in any grouse shoot?

Thanks for your confirmation of what I stated regarding the time scale, which I was unsure of, which is why I stated the following:

We gave up on being "hunter/gatherers" thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of years ago."

So my "thousands" was perfectly accurate - 10 to be exact according to you - TRUE?
