  1. i hadnt heard of facebook untill a mate showed me his computer and i saw he was in touch with people we went to school with years ago. being told to get a life on the internet is pure class
  2. undecended nuts can be hereditary.thats why theres an issue over breeding not if it could. ive got the same problem with my pup.
  3. cheeky fecker i just wish i had shooting that good so that someone could steal the picture.
  4. pups do well on raw food.
  5. just doing a bit of bushing and ratting with mine.
  6. if the jab dosent work how come working dogs arent dying from killing rats? or do dogs have natural immunity to the disease?
  7. there were a few showers like i expected at this time of year.hawaii had a small heat wave with temps upto 87.some days were overcast looking because a volcano on another island was spitting out fumes. i stayed in a hotel and didnt take anymore pics,i prefer to video stuff. on the second hunt it rained hard for about an hour which made the forest floor really slippy.you could hurt yourself in that place,they wore funny looking shoes with a spike on the front.
  8. I DONT KNOW MATE,BEING IN THE WATER WITH A WHALE SHARK WOULD BE SOMETHING SPECIAL.WHEN I FIRST SAW THAT ONES FIN COME OUT THE WATER I THOUGHT IT WAS A HUMPBACK THAT HADNT LEFT LAST MONTH WITH THE OTHERS. the shark was caught 0.6 mile off waikikki beach.the boat dosent use anything to draw fish in exceptu the bait on the hook.they cant be seen to encourage sharks into the area incase one of the thousands of people who swim off waikikki gets bitten or eaten.
  9. IVE BEEN TWICE MATE AND WHILST ITS A SPECIAL PLACE IVE DONE JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING I WANTED TO.IT TAKES 28-30 HOURS TRAVELLING ASWELL WHICH IS A NIGHTMARE.(TAXIS,3 PLANES AND WAITING IN AIRPORTS) AND IT COSTS ALOT AND IM ALWAYS SKINT SO MAYBE ITS GOING TO HAVE TO BE TURKEY OR SPAIN FOR THE NEXT FEW YEARS.

  10. you're gonna have to cut down on those foriegn holidays until next time from one regular ratter to another i have cut down,i only go abroad once a year now. spot on BBB,hope the whippets doing ok.
  11. a few like that add up to a FAIR few if taken on a regular basis,every week or two. yeah mate they add up over the year.im happy to go out and only catch one rat.....................as you know i have to go out late at night sometimes just to see a rat on my permission and i often dont catch anything. keen or mad im not sure,it costs a fortune in diesel.
  12. its unlikely that a hpr cross will point at a rabbit in the beam. they might in daytime give a point on something in cover before running in to catch or flush it but ive seen enough gwp crosses to know that they dont go around pointing at everything. its not as if collie crosses will round sheep up because thats what collies do or that all bull crosses attack other dogs.
  13. just a poor mobile phone pic of a few rats we got this afternoon. stuff like this keeps us ticking over untill next season.

    Rats

  15. brilliant mate,thats a day most of us who do some ratting can only dream about.
  16. just get a shovel,cut it up,get some fittings and anybody who can weld will have it done in a few minutes. if you dont know a welder just pop into any industrial estate and im sure youll find someone who will do it for a couple of quid.

  18. yeah mate saluki in it.gwp x nuttall dog
  19. only gwp. ive seen a gsp cross but it was young and i dont know what the lad did with it this season.
  20. they are all pointer crosses.
  21. yeah they can stink but my dogs spend alot of time ratting in slurry so its no worse than the constant smell of cow shit.
  22. nah mate not these days..............ill freeze them as they are for at least a month to kill worms and then its dog food.i used to gut and skin them but the dogs do just aswell on full carcases.saves alot of work for me and the dogs love it.
