The walking was so difficult-one had to hang on by eyebrows in some places-that the execution done was by no means in proportion to the ammunition expended. But whenever is it, in a truthful tale? Our usual procedure was to shoot till the middle of the day, and then have tiffin in our tents, and a siesta as a sequel to the consumption of this and Japanese beer, the great drink on these expeditions. Towards evening we would sally out again, but were nearly always too weary to take the same keen zest as in the morning's proceedings. Our bag on the first day amounted to thirty-nine and a half brace, and for three full days we shot that valley, the bag naturally diminishing, but always showing good sport.

During WW1 battalions of the British army were deployed in India on reserve. This report from Capt. Alban Bacon of 2/4th Hampshires records of days spent shooting 'Sisi', a grey partridge.
Good to know they had time for 'tiffin'!
