  1. Charp's is on the whisky again i see Never drank whisky in my life, (apart from that stuff the woman in Ballycommon gave me after a days hare coursing in Ireland !!), but I'll be up Glasgie and have a beer with you !! Cheers.
  2. CW, your'e turning into a characture of what you realy are ! Don't sell youre soul to being a mod !! You can still be a mod without all this inane, coloured and raised font, and flowered speech !! Your'e a dog man, just stick to that !!! Cheers.
  3. I wasn't talking about my ancestors !! I was talking about my youth; so please don't patronise me ! It was/is a good thread, but it doesn't behove a Mod to denigrate it ! Cheers.
  4. Hmm.....CW !! Your'e putting a bit of a dampner on an otherwise good thread ! Have a look, mate and think on ! Cheers.
  5. I'll agree that Thatcher f****d the working man, (and not in a nice way !! LOL !!), but come on...you can't equate the 's with the 50's !!!! There was tough times after the war, but the 's there was no rationing, people wern't starving, we all poached and collected scrap, but there was no way we would go as hungry as people did in the 50's, 60's, etc !! Cheers. S.yorks was booming in the 50s and 60s and everybody was in employment not so in the 80s.and the old pitmen who i was on strike with said it was a lot worse and could only compare it to the war years. Poach, if you beleve
  6. What was that ? ..Two kids, a goat, three chickens and a pair of ferrets ?? Ba, you crack me up !! Keep 'em coming, mate !! Cheers. LOL C, he did, 5 boys and 3 girls..... randy auld c**t. He could snare anything mate, rabbit/hare/fox/deer if it had a leg or a neck he could snare it and did Canny craic, as we say doon here in the borders !! Cheers. I even seen him snare a sea trout You'd be amazed what a knowledgeable man can catch with wire. You've got to be Whin's better educated cousin !! I await with bated breath the stories of the salmo and lobs !!

  11. Saluki's are fine dogs; and I've had both pure and hybrids, and ran Saluki's in their own enviroment; BUT.... if it's a lamping dog your after; then they are not your best choice by a long way !! Get a Lurcher bred pup from lamping parents. It'll do far better and be far cheaper ! Cheers.
  12. I'm probably "one of the more mature members" Simo's on about ! I remember times long before the miners strike, as bad as that was. I never NEEDED to hunt to get meat for the table, but we allways ate what we caught. What we didn't eat was given away to people who did need it,old people, people with big families, people out of work, etc. Still get asked by people for a rabbit, pheasant, trout, etc. The old days of hunger in this country, have, thankfully, gone.. but nowt wrong with giving an owld lad or lass a rabbit or bit of venison now and again !! (or even swapping them for a "beer voucher
  13. That's a well conditioned bitch, Tomo ! Was she hard to get, and keep in condition, or was she one of those who conditioned without massive amounts of work ? Cheers.
  14. Can't realy agree with that, mate ! Everything is continualy evolving, even dogs ! Just look at the coursing dog, the Saluki Hybrid is a relativly modern phenomenon, but is generaly accepted as the best hare coursing dog in the world, now ! Cheers. Thats true, I used to watch crufts and see these wee fluffy terrier types prancing and the commentator would say.... this dog was once used for badgers!!! I know its a bad example cos I personally hate the kennel club but you know what I mean and at the very least, I do lol. Ba, I would say that the "Crufts,KC" dogs have degenerat

  16. I think this dog came up in conversation today when I was speaking with 'Gin' off here? Yes/No? Quite possibly; Gin bred her. Cheers.
  17. but that begs the question why would you want a gun dog with extra pace as presumably they are all ready bred right for the job,or are they,dont know iv lost myself now Would this not technicaly be a lurcher ????? ATB have heard of a few of this type over the years but they certainly not common,i asked about gry/lab long time ago but people were very negative prob due to the likely litter waistage,to heavy I recon your right mate but would be interesting to see what a light weight long dog say Saluki x Greyhound first cross and one of the lighter weight field trial
  18. NO DOG should go hungry these days !! FFS, you can get a 15Kg bag of complete working dog food from the likes of Netto's for six quid !! If you have ANY brains, you can go around your local butchers and get top class dog food for NOWT !! There is NO excuse for having a hungry dog !! Shame on them that do !!!! Cheers.

  23. A Lurcher will do a gundogs job better than a gundog can do a Lurchers job !..... But a Lurcher will never be better than a gundog at a gundogs job !! Hope that makes sense !! LOL !! Cheers.
