Just had our old terrier PTS. She had started having mini strokes and it was getting to hard to see her struggling. She was taken off someone who wasn't looking after her and had been knocking her about. She ended up with a lad who did the terriers for one of the fell packs and did a season there. The lad retired and the old dog was sat on his yard, being well looked after but he had to many dogs without work.....so she came to us. She did a bit of ratting with me, but really, she became a spoilt fat lap dog. She would cower and shake if you moved a hand over her for the first year,

Wee Monday off and away down the A1 to meet a couple of boys with their mutts, bit of a disaster I lost 2 Jill’s as they managed to escape the carrier and had about an hour to evade spent a bit time looking for them even with the thermal but to no avail, gutted, but lesson learned… the hard way. ended the day with 29 rabbits a few digs but most bolted to the long nets and dogs

lo

THEY SHALL GROW NOT OLD, AS WE THAT ARE LEFT GROW OLD AGE SHALL NOT WEARY THEM, NOR THE YEARS CONDEMN AT THE GOING DOWN OF THE SUN AND IN THE MORNING WE WILL REMEMBER THEM LEST WE FORGET

mooching in the afternoon mist, dog's working the hedgerow, across the dyke there is a row of trees amongst nettles, brambles, ground quite boggy, I was scanning the trees looking for a shot at woodies with the catapult when I saw this chap about 4 feet off the ground, I thought is he dead or asleep, a big dog fox he never moved until I said now then are you asleep, he lifted his head looked at me for a couple of seconds then he was down and off through the brambles.

Does anyone feel like I do, that even though it won’t directly affect my life and I didn’t have an input, that Trumps victory seems like a victory for us that despise the far left government that we have for the next five years ? Cheers.

How many times is this going to happen ?

Nowt fancy just my and my pals dog on a walk, The suspect saluki and the undercover saluki

6hr 30 drive back to the house. Wife made me promise id stop and take more then one break. Well got over the bridge and into Louisiana and saw a sign for these rest stop so said why not . Pull in and was just gonna sit in the car but saw this old timer out fishing. Noticed his rod was a bit different. Really long , whippy lil spinny reel near the bottom. Remembered being told and asked about older black people liking to use fly rods with spinning reels for general fishing. Never seen it in my area but apparently it was one of those things that's kinda ...well exclusive isn't the word bu

Old dog PTS this week. great all round bitch that liked a fox or two. I picked her up in summer 2008. Bar the odd pulled muscle and collision was fit all her life. RIP old lass

I think Inheritance Tax is one of the most egregious taxes there is. If someone works and pays Income Tax, invests wisely and pays tax on their dividends, pays tax on the interest their money in the bank earns, pays capital gains tax on a second property they bought and improved and sold on at a profit, why should they pay tax on what they leave to their children when that money, assets, etc has been taxed many times over already ? Cheers.

I had intended to watch the fight. Had some daft hope that Iron Mike still had 1 last great fight left in him and would show some of the devastating power and controlled aggression that he used to have. But apparently not. I say apparently as I fell asleep on the sofa before the fight started. I don't know what time I nodded off but when waking up 6ish discovered that my glasses had fallen from my face and onto the floor, only realising when I stepped on them. Also before falling asleep had taken delivery of an Indian takeaway. Mutton tikka starter, chicken vindaloo, plain pilau ric

Another venison stew, made with choice cuts of roe; Cheers.

Went from a Crab salad in the beach shack at Beesands to a Cream Tea at Widecombe-in-the- Moor for a Cream Tea bit of a drive today. Cheers Arry

As we are all hunting hunting men your immediate reaction is to defend other hunting men, unfortunately the old school poacher is not the current type, "walk the land and leave no trace" was how many of us were taught... These lads don't give a f**k imo, if the video is real then they are acting like c**ts and bring it on top for everyone... It's nothing new though, lads like this fuel the fire that is already lit against us... I can't defend them, it's not my way of doing things and the blokes I'll walk out with wouldn't have them in their company either...

Final push left home at 5.30 am arrived at the destination for 6.30 load the customers van and returned to the boat set off at 730 and arrived at drop off for 530pm did the lapworth flight in 2.5 hrs will put the final few on tomorrow I’m knackered

You would have enjoyed it @DIDO.1 we saw a couple of upper class countrywear tweed type shops and ended up in a pub where we were offered pink lemonades by some friendly gentlemen I thought were a biker gang???They had their club colours flying inside,Borr suggested we leave ASAP before the bikers got physical.

They should be scourged committers , enablers , those who sat idly by . They should be made to feel awkward all the time . ive mentioned before that I know a young family who experienced an act like this . The last couple of years I have taken great pleasure in making socially awkward situations where the friendship circle of the commiter have been forced to make their exit by revealing they are mates with a nonce and his family . never ever let these people forget what they allowed scum.

You understand the importance of the big estates in the U.K. when you come to a place like I live. In the U.K. a small farm is about 600 acres, on that they may have a small shoot or border a bigger managed estate. In my part of ireland they got rid of most of the great houses after independence, burnt them down or left them to ruin. Estates were partitioned up into small “family” farms, a big farm here is 60-100 acres and that may be spread out over miles with lots of other peoples fields all interwoven chess board style in between. No shoots or managed estates because it

Pork chop roast today

Great that mate. I lost my son coming up to 37 years ago this November and was oblivious to how it must have been upsetting to his grandparents at the time as I was too consumed with my own grief at the time and I don't know how I would cope if I was too loose one of my grandchildren who I worry about these days in this changing world more than I do my two daughters who have turned into hard working strong individuals. Take care mate and all the best.

And a big apple crumble for afters with pinched apples too, everything's better when it's free.

Free range pork

Went to Stroud farmers market yesterday saw Eddie the eagle wandering around bought some nice breads and stopped in the butchers enroute for some proper bacon ready for a Sunday morning beg roll
