Nellers Aug 2010 7:51pm, 15 Aug 2010 12,558 posts	Quote Pin Nellers I went for a pre-breakfast run up in Leicester, through Bradgate Park (don't know if any of you would know it, but it's beautiful and full of deer. It's where Lady Jane Grey's family lived, at Bradgate House, which is just ruins now). Parked up, in through the Newtown Linford gates and started up the path and there was the most magnificent young stag with huge antlers just by the side of the path watching me go past! Not running off, just watching. Stunning. So I ran past him and over the first little ridge and down and there was a little herd (is that the right collective noun?) of a Stag, some younger males with smaller antlers and 3 or 4 females with their young. And on I ran and there was another little family grazing in the bracken just past the Old John gate, and when I was coming back from the Cropston gate back to Newtown Linford via Old John and the memorial there was a bigger group, maybe 20 or 30 in total, grazing in the saddle between 2 of the hills. I've never seen so many deer inone run in there. It was quite breathtaking, and so was the climb up to Old John. I proper love that park. When I win the lottery I'm moving it nearer to my house.
