    f**k

    Im trying very hard to understand the way you write earthmover. Would you mind not using text talk please?
  2. I love your posts Socks. A real blast from the past in terms of content...what these websites used to be about. What a pair of ugly b*****ds though....seriously, have you thought about bags for your heads?
  3. BBB is that the one by John Glover?
  4. My old bitch was/is a decent finder. Not the best foxing dog in the world, but a very good finder of foxes. Her main job as a youngster was ferreting and accompanying me on my pest control rounds, so she certainly got a wide variety of work. I used to love watching her work - best part of the work for me.
  5. Not sure how many of you get Earth Dog Running Dog but mine arrived yesterday and I read Dave Sleight's article with great interest. When it comes to the production of a lurcher, assuming you're using a greyhound, what would you consider the best type to use? I've long considered this one and I've asked a lot of lads with much better knowledge of greys than me for their opinions over the years. So what would you use assuming you had access to both?
  6. We’ve probably all heard the argument; collies are smart and bull terriers are dumb. Or should that be collie crosses are smart and bull crosses are dumb? They are both bandied about quite regularly and argued passionately on various internet hunting websites and (no doubt) beer tents the length and breadth of Britain. Both crosses possess drive aplenty and can’t be criticised for heart. There’s also the argument that both types are trainable, although there’s a certain element of “Pavlov’s Dog†to some collies I’ve seen. Some collie aficionados clearly see the bull as just a br
  7. There are lads who if they told me that a dog was guaranteed, I would nod with interest and want to know more. There are lads who if they told me that a dog was guaranteed, I would raise my eyebrows and take a sharp intake of breath. The former are few and far between, and the latter are all too common. And the killer is, the lads in the first group would very rarely describe a dog as guaranteed, whereas the latter use it far too frequently.

  10. Can't give a hare away but a rabbit will cost you $20
  11. Best of luck with her fella. Let us all know how she gets on won't you? I had great fun getting mine fit for the field and then had great times with them once they were there.
  12. You swapped the wine and wafer for a Kingfisher and a poppadom?
  13. There's a sighthound section on Ozziedoggers mate
  14. An old bull terrier of mine who worked well and had manners. He knew when it was time for work and when it wasn't.
  15. Lennard, your time-line is all stuffed up there mate, and you've got the Saxons and Celts in the wrong order.
  16. Just got the book today and I have to say I was gob-smacked. Over the years I have taken a few decent pictures, more by luck than judgement, but having just sat and thumbed through this book, I realise that Darcy hasn't taken these photographs by accident. This is talent. Talent and sheer hard work. This book is a masterpiece. I can't put it any other way. This is going to be born out by the fact that this book is going to be listed in people's favourites for years, maybe generations because quite frankly, I can't see anyone surpassing this book. To think that there are only 1
  17. I used to run orchards and strawberry beds with bull terriers and lurcher and had some success. Plenty of foxes in my orchards and badgers too. Lots of summer work though as the pigs used to chew through the irrigation when it got dry. Great fun, but not many easy catches.

  19. Signing on, probably going to see Artic at gigs by the sounds of things, drinking too much, fighting too much,trying to repair a broken alternator on a T5 engine and emptying my mam's penny jar to buy myself 25 Rothmans Royals. Could generally be found where I shouldn't have been with a jack russell,a BSA Airsporter and a pocket full of Eley Wasps.

    Here's one for you scooterboys.....has anybody got a copy of "Tony Blackburn?" I remember they used to knock copies out in the back of Scootering for a fiver back in the late 's, but I never managed to get one. I spent my money on the knock-off copy of Clockwork Orange instead!
  23. That's exactly right mate...she's still keen, but it's all a bit much these days. Time for the next generation.
