  1. RIP Fred, a great countryman.
  2. Been hearing them for about a month out on the Moor. Saw one fairly close last wekend but gone before I had the camera out. Cheers, D.
  3. Could be construed to be racist Ditch! So probably true. Cheers, D.
  4. Used to enjoy night time hunting most. Probably the excitement of mostly poaching back then. Night time hunting can be more productive in many cases but you miss seeing so much besides the quarry. Daytime hunting now is more of an enjoyment for me although I love going out any time! Cheers, D.
  5. Do you think you'll need the bipod for shooting squirrels up chimneys?
  6. Disturbed a queen from the wood pile about a month ago. Managed to kill it thankfully. Cheers, D.
  7. Would that also apply to a foxhounds drag/trail meet? Do they need a similar policy?
  8. can have tem taken out for les than £100 my vet says.
  9. Be careful with regards to pups jumping! Their bones aren't fully formed till about 15 months (dependant on the breed). My 7 month old fecker scared the shit out of me by clearing a 7 foot round bar cattle grid a while back, from a standing jump! Cheers, D.
  10. And when you speak to the landowner you can say with all honesty: "That's 5, 7, 9, 11, 15 etc etc that you won't have to worry about next year"
  11. Been fecked for more than a generation mate. WE ARE ALL apathetic English!
  12. The Yukon MVT NV2 WP comes with a list of available add ons, including video, camera, scope and helment fittings. It's a basic spotter though, if you want scope quality NV, spend loads more. Cheers, D.
  13. One of our local old boys passed away recently. A great hunt supporter. R.I.P. Jack Steer. Respect.
  14. Shouldn't bath dogs at all mate, loses the essential shit in their coats. As far as casting coats goes, my puppy sheds shitloads of hair each day, whilst his parents, fed etc exactly the same, don't. Cheers, D.
  15. The model ive got are £260 in william powels, but ive seen them on ebay for £ i was lucky i payed £50 Good shot, I paid £145 delivered direct from Ukraine (6 Days)!
  16. I use a Yukon MVT NV2 WP for spotting. It turns NV shooting into more of a spectator sport for the rabbit carrier . Cheers, D.
  17. If you want to run a hare FOR SPORT, after Christmas (and before Easter)!
  18. Graham Wellstead in his book "The Ferret and Ferreting Guide" writes about a litter of kits he hand reared from 4 days old.He goes into detail the ins and outs of rearing the litter in which 8 out of the 10 kits survived.He concludes by saying the kits grew up to be the most fantastic workers,absolutely steady at all times.It's well worth a read for anyone thinking of hand rearing a litter of kits. There is a potential problem that the kits won't have the essential shit from "mother's milk" but other than that, like any animal, hand reared or natural, it's what you put into them that count

    AOL

    Used to have AOL on the phone line for £16 a month. Changed to BT Broad band about 2 years ago. Awesome connection and download speed etc but a bit pricey at £35 a month but we're business users with 24/7 service. Good kit when it's working but been jerked about a bit when connection is lost 24/7 means they'll log your call! Cheers, D.
  20. You will need ferrets as well! Cheers, D.
  21. Again her I am on my (missus's) pc, my last post was moments ago, my pc says 1.31 my watch and telly say 1. 31. THL says last post 12.31. It does this sometimes to me, anybody else?
  22. Yeah me too mate but different when you've got a (all stock broken) lurcher, a terrier and a bitza puppy with you. Any sheep and they're all straight on the leads (unless we're known there) just for a bit of courtesy Cheers, D..
  23. just spoke to me old man there has to be proven damage to livestock Dogs may only be shot as a last resort, and they have to be in the act of worrying livestock. The farmer then has 48 hours to inform the police of his or her actions. I know of a case where a farmer caught two dogs, tied them to a fence and then shot them. He was prosecuted as by catching them and tying them to a fence, they could not have been in the act of worrying livestock. As someone has already suggested, it was probobly warning shots (which is a very quick way of loosing a shotgun certificate) - but trespa
  24. They have/had a similar animal called the Echidna. (I think )!
