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.

There’s still a few working Bedlington’s; But I’d guess they are few and far between Cheers.

Matt Goodwin to stand for Reform in Manchester by-election. Id say he is definitely “right wing” Cheers.

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.

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

You are getting very political as you, errr, mature mate Cheers.

Hope is just about all we have mate The alternative is unthinkable; a coalition of Labour, Greens, LibDems and SNP. As I keep saying; I’ll vote Reform until a viable alternative is offered , then I’ll study that alternative and make a decision Cheets.

I’m loath to show support for ANY Tory, but playing “devils advocate” in the case of Braverman, she was sacked as Home Secretary for going against the Tory Cabinet and demanding we leave the ECHR, and she was one of the 28 “Spartans” who continually voted against Mays Brexit sell out surrender deal . If reform is going to accept Tory defectors, she would be the least objectionable to me. I still think Farage has a long time plan to denude the Tory’s of as many MPs as possible, get into power and start implementing his own plans. At least that’s my hope and opinion. I could be wr

Garlic growing under lights and on heat mats in the garden shed; Garlic growing in a poly tunnel at the allotment; All from the same bulbs and in the same compost. Cheers. -
I think Farage has played a blinder, a barnstorming speech in support of, and in front of, an audience of veterans and introducing Braverman, probably the most right wing Tory, the day after Starmer has shown his craven cowardice by blocking Burnhan from becoming an MP, and probably giving one of the safest Labour seats in the country to Reform just to save his own skin Cheers.

You didn’t give him your name, did you Pike ? Cheers.

When my nieces were at school in New Zealand, Japanese was the foreign language on the curriculum. My grandsons school has French and Japanese on the curriculum. Id far rather they were taught one of the Chinese languages as I think Japans influence on the world is declining, whereas Chinas influence is rapidly expanding. Cheers

Two ends of the spectrum. Cheers.

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. -
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

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.
-
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.

All depends on the whippet you use. Use one like this and you won’t go far wrong Cheers. -
