  1. Is that the UK name DW?Comes in tins?
  2. Civets stink harvey,but they are classed as a delicacy in the far-east,I guess EBC's have more discerning palates
  3. Hook was always my favourite Character in the movie,something about him we can all identify with
  4. Tins of rat-lime are readily available,I have caught Gecko's in a roof-space on tack-boards
  5. My mistake,the "Stations" the train-station right? Its just !The station" has always had connotations of plod to me I dont think UK coppers are too soft,not when mob handed anyway,but woe betide they are armed as standard policy,most of them I wouldnt arm with a water-pistol,think Reg Hollis in the wild-west
  6. Maybe its different for you PCSO's
  7. Its not absolute rubbish at all artic,I have seen it with my own eyes,I dont hate the police,I just think the force needs a good shake up and the quality of recruits needs to be upgraded,if theres no egotistical officers in the force how do you account for the attitudes of certain officers and the horror-stories of police beatings that leak out occassionally?
  8. River Thames,from Hampton Court up to Maidenhead,long stretch but so many decent places to fish,I prefer targeting trout however,and the best river for those is the test,great fishing,and packed with good sized brownies and grayling.
  9. Looking good fireman,hopefully I will see one of them in the flesh fairly soon
  10. Lots of incidences of coppers treating humans worse than they treat those dogs,now and again you get an insight into how the police machine really works and someone discretely videos a copper punching,kicking,or indiscriminately lashing out in temper,plain and simple,some go into the force for the ego trip and the sense of power they could never achieve in civvy street
  11. Most omniverous race on the planet,seen them eat some bizzare dishes in the past,civet cat was quite expensive over there,and we used to live near a snake-soup restaurant with tight-weave wire-mesh baskets of cobras stacked outside on the pavement each day,wouldnt discount it,but I know lots of chinese living here in the UK,several of whom are restauranteurs,and cant imagine them paying £40 for a fox,but stranger things have happened
  12. Colour-coded penile-girth vacuum seals
  13. Benefit fraud,assault,theft,drunk and disorderly,growing dope................................ http://news.aol.co.uk/police-with-crime-re...083449760655477

    POOR SOLE Looks like a 'dab' hand. Kev. I am flounder'ing for an answer to that
  15. They think they are Nico Toscani(above the law)most need stringent psychological and psychometric tests,no one can argue there are some genuine knuckle-draggers in the force,who will guard the guards
  16. I just think the buck was a little rut-crazed,I wouldnt know about "Bummed"
  17. I read the story in a bowhunting mag,he was hunting during the rut and had smothered himself in doe oustrus scent.
  18. Who said money doesnt grow on trees
  19. Wasnt in the 's artic,and these arent in a boot,but they do prove whippets have their uses
  20. This times the exception I will stick some pics up next week that prove whippets can catch the odd rabbit or two on rough ground,picture speaks a 1000 words
  21. JPT,you live in a gret area for whippets,someone will take you out,base your choice on that
  22. Ah,glad thats sorted then,so you werent speaking from long-standing practicalities but from the odd occassion out with whippets?Hate to reiterate,ounce of practical is better than a ton of theory
  23. Thats better artic,earlier when you said your always practical I was expecting you to stick a pic up of your whippet I thought you must have had or worked one,thats what I meant by an ounce of practical beats a ton of theory Anyone can theorise,but its only those who have actually owned or worked a whippet who can actually speak from experience
  24. Mack, as you know, I've done a bit, (and still do!!!), around Northumberland, and before I got the wander lust, it was the ONLY place I worked my dogs, which at the time were predominately Whippets; if they could handle this ground, they could handle owt !!! LOL !!! Cheers. Its true Charts,northumberland is hard ground,its not easy
