I work there a lot...it can get emotional ??. Some characters round there for sure ?

Had a lad not turn up because he said his gutter was leaking and it kept him up all night so didn’t want to not be at his best and waste my money ? very kind of him. Same bloke also said he slept in till 12.30 in the afternoon because there was a power cut and his phone didn’t charge when he did roll in at 1.30pm let’s say he didn’t look that well rested but hungover and off his head. This all in his first week and needless to say his last week working for me.

Just out of curiosity why do you always split up from your mate when you go together? Would it not be worth staying together and both getting the use of Nells clearly excellent marking nose?
-
I bet. Just f***ing the game more than it already is for everyone and bringing unwanted attention on to everyone else.
-
Oh dear!!!! Dare I ask how that one turned out for you?
-
Fortunately I haven’t! I haven’t got Facebook and and I have no intention of getting it. I think it would just make me angry tbh looking at the dog and hunting pages due to the sheer volume of muppets on there doing the real dog men no favours whatsoever!

19 months old and putting it up for stud. Ffs. Well proven then. A load more puppies to join the 100’s being passed around for a mars bar then....

If your working for a contractor of any sort they will take 20% of your earnings under the cis scheme, you will still need to do a tax return though and that will probably result in a rebate as all your expenses will now come off the tax you’ve already paid at source. All your fuel, vehicle expenses, work clothes, tools, mobile phone can all be claimed back. You will also need to register for NI, best bet is to speak to an account but it’s all pretty straightforward especially if your working for one person and not loads of different customers.

So sorry for your loss Trev, never gets any easier losing dogs especially in these circumstances.

Agreed. I really do dislike the bbc in the main, they are so left wing when they should be impartial. License fee is a joke, should scrapped. It’s a joke in the modern age that they get all that money and if you want to own a tv you have no choice but to pay it. License fee gets absolutely wasted on nonsense

Let’s not mention Packham I’ll start hyperventilating ???

All mine live in the house together no problem.

I have two entire dogs and one bitch and they all get on brilliantly no problems at all. Bitch absolutely loves her boys and they both adore her. All extremely laid back dogs though.

Not for me, I’ll stick to nets and dogs. If you want to shoot rabbits go out at night with a lamp. I am sure plenty of people do it safely but it doesn’t feel safe to me and it’s all about enjoyment and nothing will compares to watching a dog work a warren and catch a rabbit as it bolts. Would never risk taking a dog if someone was shooting and ferreting without a dog to me is just not the same.

Sorry to hear about your health, tried to pm but didn’t work....

f**k me!!!!! £2280! For a mongrel, that’s absolutely mental......just hope they haven’t sold out I’ll get a couple! ?????

I hate ticks, nasty bloody things. Fortunately don’t see many on the ferrets but took a huge one off my jill last week right under her chin ?.
-
I have ferrets around that age die on the job I am afraid to say, dug down to a signal on the collar to find ferret dead, fur on the claws, assumed a heart attack. However a happy story as well I lost a jill after the collar stopped working and went back every day (as did my mrs whilst I was at work) for a week to ten days before giving up and assuming the worst then a full 26 days after losing her I get a call off the keeper to say that whilst out on a shoot day (a good quarter of a mile away from where I lost her) my ferret had just wondered up to a beater a he picked her and handed her over

I was getting pregnant does (early stages) just after Christmas but last few weeks I haven’t had any pregnant ones. I think they have been absorbing them as the weather has got cold, I catch one today though that was very very milky so must have been nursing young but haven’t bolted any babies yet. I was bolting youngsters in November still though which I think is very late.
-
Well done for taking them in, hopefully you find good homes for the other two.
-
I’ve never bothered getting them tested after op and it’s always been fine, just as well as I normally have anywhere from 4-8 jill at any one time!
-
Love it!

Don’t rush into anything, keep looking and be prepared to travel for the right one. I have an 18 month old whippet (pedxnonped) and I have to say I am very happy with him, as a ferreting dog he is spot on. I just keep looking and ringing about litters till I found someone that answered the questions with answers I liked ??. Plenty of good working whippets out there.
