  1. Two ends of the spectrum. Cheers.
  2. Just been announced we are sending illegal immigrants back to Sri Lanka and Algeria and paying for them to stay in hotels in their own countries, paying for counselling and paying to help them start up businesses, meanwhile, in Trumps America….. Cheers.
  3. It’s nothing personal, Bangers Just robbing a bakery opens up the opportunity for so many jokes and puns Im glad you’ve turned you life around, we all did daft things when we were young Cheers.
  4. It was no reflection on you just my attempt at humour with Bangers getting time for robbing his bosses bakery, it was hardly Hatton Garden or Brink’s Mat, was it Cheers.
  5. Never understood why some people brag about doing time ? Doesnt it just mean they were daft enough to get caught ? Dont the clever ones do their time at places like the Costa del Sol ? Cheers.
  6. Don’t quote me on this, Fens, as I was never a judge, just an interested spectator; when the hounds are slipped, the fastest hound up to the hare scored 3 points, if it turned the hare it scored another 2 points, if after the turn, the slower hound in the run up was in front and the hound that turned the hare then went past it and led again, it would be a go by and scored 3 points meaning it was 8 points in front and then the judge would either take points off the leading hound if it started to get bettered by the other hound until they were equal or keep adding points to the leading hound if
  7. I was a regular at the Border & Coquetdale Coursing Club and was lucky enough to attend the three days of the last Waterloo Cup. Professionaly run with independent slippers and judges, judging hound against hound where the kill was not the most important thing. I never, sadly, got to see organised whippet coursing. Cheers.
  8. I think terms like “run up”, “first turn”, “ go by” that are used in organised coursing may go over the heads of most Daywalkers mate Not aimed at you , Fens; your one of the most sensible Cheers.
  9. All depends on the whippet you use. Use one like this and you won’t go far wrong Cheers.

    No, I conversed with him much later, he was a colonel in the IRNG , evidently, he told me. Cheers.

    Iran

    Remember it ? I was actually in the area, working for the Royal Saudi Airforce in their Air Defence Centre in Riyadh. Watched it happen in real time ! That must make me a REALLY old b*****d Cheers.

    Iran

    The pacific carrier group has been steaming from the South China Sea enroute to the Mediterranean and is just arriving. Theres been a big build up of air power in Jordan, Qatar and Saudi so it’s either just a show of power or it’s going to go hot very shortly . Cheers.
  13. Nobody actually believes this match will take place…….do they ? Cheers.
  14. Mark said the match was one of his dogs against one of mC’s, Marks “Bounty” v mC’s “White Death”, not one that’s been bought in. Please don’t shoot the messenger……. Cheers.
  15. It’s also a Rch on the bends over 270yds as well as straights over 150yds in the up to 16lb class Cheers.
  16. About 5 1/2 kilo, not sure of its height but I’d guess around 16-17”. Id heard about it and had to see for myself. It’s a freak. I took the pics and had my hands all over it, and it’s a dog , not a bitch. Ive see a few like that but not that small or fast, there was a bitch called Rch Cherry many years ago that was unbeatable at yards for pound racing but it was around 16lb. Cheers
  17. This non-ped weighs 12lb and runs in the 16lb class and is virtually unbeatable ! And it’s 1/4 greyhound !! Others in the litter were up to 40lb Cheers.
  18. The Greens are the ones to watch, latest polls put it almost as a three horse race. If the Greens vote tactically and Burnham runs, Labour win . If the greens go for it and split the lefts vote and Burnham doesn’t run, it’s a shoe in for Reform. So many permutations, it’ll be interesting Cheers.
  19. Only problem there is people who won’t vote Labour because of Starmer might vote for a Burnham led Labour, and he’s got Angela Rayner and Lucy Powell backing him, two evil bitches. Cheers
  20. Trumps made Starmer rethink the Chagos surrender deal. Hes cancelled the vote in the Lords set for Monday as it looks like he would have lost. I doubt he will give up though. Cheers.
  21. I’ve just been talking to Mark and, as I thought, his line is from Kat, ( beardie collie/greyhound x Country Music, non-ped whippet/greyhound) x Snipe, ( lurchers x lurcher with saluki about four generations back). Pup from this line put back to another non-ped. So, in his words “ heavily saturated whippet greyhound with a tiny bit of collie and saluki”. Cheers.
  22. I’m still not sure what you’re getting at Just yesterday I was walking home from my allotment and the bitch spotted a roe standing by a hedge two fields over. She took off after it and I last seen her disappearing through the hedge so I carried on walking home. She caught up with me about 10 minutes later but I would never consider that a ten minute run. I checked her for hairs or blood but couldn’t see any so I assume it got away, probably led her away through the nearby woods. Cheers.
  23. I like seeing a good run, but why would I especially enjoy it? Ive seen many 4 minutes + runs. What I’ve also seen is people say they’ve had 4,5,6, minute runs that were only around two minutes. Cheers.
  24. Yeah, as I said in reply to Francie, they go back to Kat Who had non-ped whippet/greyhound in her and I’m fairly sure he added non-ped again a while back, as you say snipe and gaffer were top class simply by the numbers and range of gear they put away. Whatever anyone thinks of Mark, and we’ve had our disagreements, he keeps a good type of dog and they are always in top condition. Cheers.
  25. As I’ve always said Francie, the saluki coursing bred is the best there is for daytime coursing, without doubt, but that doesn’t mean other types can’t kill hares, after all we were killing them well before the saluki arrived here As for Marks dogs beating mC’s at there own game, probably not, but I doubt very much any match will take place, but don’t write the Brick off, after all he’s done it before Cheers,
