A long time ago maybe in a boozer somewhere someone suggests Lonsdale no, eskdale no, ennerdale no, allerdale no, matterdale!!!! no, definately not Emmerdale, now Patterdale that sounds more like it, maybe!!!!
Your guess is as good as mine unless you know something I dont, but I bet you theres a hundred people with a hundred different stories to why it is????
Great pics Blaise, (Im learning french now!!! haha) do you kill most of what you dig, or is it upto the landowner, do you re-locate at any time???......cheers
Nice looking worker Rich, just out of interest what height and weight is it and and is there an average size you keep. I bet you have loads of fun trying to guess what your digging to, but after a while I suppose the way your dog works his game gives you an indication, maybe!!
