  1. Ooty,if you have had a single dog that mastered every-single one of those tasks then I take my hat off to you,your a better man than me Gunga-din,and I have never seen fish-coursing
  2. With the advent of lamping long-netting wasnt as popular though its undergoing a resurgence of interest with 'Tinternet and quick-set systems,but nocturnal netting requires a dog that shepherds and hunts up,lamping is the total opposite,point-and-shoot,without doing an impersonation of one of Gordy Browns cabinet,and using one word instead of ten anyone care to explain for thickos like myself how even a MENSA registered canine understands the complexities of each task on a given night Your netting one night and the creature uses its olfactory senses,next night artificial-light and the legenda
  3. Fur&feather catching,long&gate-netting,ferreting,lamping,daytime coursing specialist?Guess whats rarer than the actual fabled canine itself?Someone with the skill,time,and patience to train the beast I dont think your going to get one single person on here who will claim to have such a legend living in their kennels today

  5. Had a mate come down with Heat-stroke once,collapsed on a trail,I dumped him in a stream and poured water over his head,he was a bit groggy for a while,spewed-up,got a re-hydration drink into him,good as new though twice as ugly
  6. First computer game odysseus?
  7. According to Blechleys "The Beast" squid have 8 arms and two tentacles
  8. Bullet proof vests and fire-escapes?Invented by ladies methinks,I know the vests certainly were.

  15. Thanks for the votes,I enjoyed reading the entries,good standard,I had already decided to donate a pirze(should I win one) to a worthy cause,I should have written "The fairy-wood" after the place we lamped last night Theres something not quite RIGHT about a country-park car-parking area filled with cars,each containing a single male occupant I would tell you what we found in the woods,but some things are best left unsaid Thanks for the votes,mucho obrigado
  16. It was a metaphorical storm Maty,the worst kind
  17. You have to weather a storm to see a rainbow Maty
  18. Coincidence?I just got the boy to spin some 4-strand earlier(has to earn his pocket-money,credit-crunch and all that,no free-rides on the gravy-train),will try them later this evening
  19. Still check it out RD,looking is free,anyone says owt just tell them I am window-shopping I have somewhere a little less public in mind,besides,as you now well know,gaffing is sooo last-season
  20. It was on TV earlier this evening,guy in Hayes West-london shooting targets in the back-garden shot his 3 year old son in the head,child rushed to hospital,father arrested.
  21. I told you..............Motorbikes.................Steve McQueen....................barbed-wire.................freedom............Great-escape
  22. Thats cool RD,but I am not treading old-ground,I have a very good spot,lets see what we can pull out of the hat
  23. Netting laws were a little different in my old neighbourhood,I often had 150 yards of netting right across the river,though not at the estuarine mouth but further upstream,never once prosecuted for it neither,so obviously legal,none of the anadromous fish I netted ever held owners-tags nor names and return-addresses,neither do I suspect they were bar-coded either,however should I have been committing an unlawful act then i was fully prepared to accept the consequences of my actions
  24. Factor in the cost of packaging?
