  1. Could be; it’s got the speed of the non-ped and works the hare like a coursing bred, you have to see it working, it’s a freak, in a very VERY good way Cheers.
  2. Everywhere around here is lifting with roe. Seeing more and more in groups. They seem to be rutting just now. Cheers.
  3. That little bitch is tiny but one of the fastest I’ve seen making up on a hare. It was an invite onto permission and I hope to be invited back so I don’t want to say too much other than I had a great morning Cheets.
  4. Single . Ive never ran any of Max’s, only seen his racing lurcher on the track and it’s very fast. I wouldn’t expect my deer/grey to be as fast as a non-ped cross. Cheers.
  5. I see it regularly in non-peds, especially black ones, maybe it just shows up more in black coats. That bitch lives in the house and is fed the same as my dogs ; tripe , beef, chicken and game. I think it is probably genetic, but I don’t know enough about it. Cheers.
  6. Getting my seed tatties tomorrow and start them chitting in the shed. First Earlies Cheers.
  7. “Grassing “ means a completely different thing to old timers like myself Im not up with the Daywalkers patois, but if it means “catching”, let’s just say I was on an invitation on permission and had a very good few hours Cheers.
  8. On the slop with “Little & Large” this morning; Cheers.
  9. Letting the frost get to them or freezing them is supposed to make a chemical change converting whatever makes them bitter into sugar, supposedly I sometimes add a bottle of cheap red wine aswell. Cheers
  10. Yeah, I should have picked them early and put them in the freezer. I bought plums when they were cheap at Aldi, (breaks my heart buying fruit or veg ), and a pal brought me a litre bottle of export blue label Smirnoff off a flight so I’ve made slivovitz, plum vodka Cheers.
  11. I don’t know the answer mate, but we had a bumper crop of sloe berries and I thought I’d leave them until the first frost, as usual , before making my sloe gin, but they disappeared before the frost. Last year we had a bumper crop of plums but this year barely any ! I can’t explain it. Cheers.
  12. I’ll be up on the east coast near the border tomorrow with my bitch and a tiny non-ped x coursing bred that’s doing tremendous, very fast and a lot of wind, seems to have got the mix perfect. Should be fun Cheers.
  13. I’ve just had to double check that this isn’t the joke thread ”p***y’s R us” Cheers.
  14. Yeah; Moorman was a good lad, I’m sure he offered to gift me a pup one time This was a great shoot, around 20 years ago; we got £35 for beating, our dinners, first drink bought for us in the pub afterwards, as many birds as we wanted and we could run game between beats and shoots. One time me and Danny were up there and walking past the pens when the keeper came tearing up and said “oh, it’s you two, what you up to ? “ We said we were just running a few hares, he said , there’s three roe sitting in that dyke over there”. He watched as we ran them and my little bitch pulled a y
  15. I was beating on a shoot with LDR and a roe broke cover and Bruce pulled it. The head keeper came running over and we thought we were in trouble, but he said “ drop the guts out of it, give me the liver and get it in your motor sharpish “ ! And we WERE invited back many times. They let us run hares in between beats and the guns all watched Cheers.
  16. Pheasant breast and black pudding pie, with a chilled Pinot; Bon Apetit.
  17. I remember meeting an old guy many years ago and he told me they used to bring their Lakies over from Cumberland to Northumberland to cross them with Beddy’s to “put a bit more fire in them “ ! How times have changed . Cheers.
  18. There’s still a few working Bedlington’s; But I’d guess they are few and far between Cheers.

    Reform ?

    Matt Goodwin to stand for Reform in Manchester by-election. Id say he is definitely “right wing” Cheers.
  20. There’s some saying goes something like “when you’re in you’re 20’s and still learning, you’re a socialist; when you’re in you’re 40’s and learned, you’re a conservative “. I think common sense may come with age and experience, but then again, I know some oldies that have never had any common, or otherwise, sense Cheers.

    Reform ?

    The Tory’s have just announced a new group that is dedicated to moving the party further to the left, or as they term it “the centre ground”, to win over LibDem voters. So the only party with a chance of winning a General Election that is even remotely “right wing ”, is Reform UK. As I keep saying ; there is no viable alternative, the only other alternative is a Labour, LibDem, Greens, SNP coalition. If people think Labour are bad, this coalition would be disastrous ! Im willing to take a chance on Reform rather than risk a far left coalition. If another viable right wing p
