  1. With a friend moving over to Oman, a invite landed at my door for a trip back north to Aberdeenshire, for a mixed driven day. As I keepered up there for ni on 10 years & the gun had accumulated 2 years of dust, I was itching for the day to arrive. The Friday came & I was met by all those familiar faces at the bothie, the craic was like I'd only been away for a day :-) , I gave the beaters my bottle for the day, a quick final piss take & they were off. The first drive saw me on peg 8, shooting as a back gun, knowing the shoot, I knew I'd still be kept busy, sure enough they arriv
  2. I was always led to believe that if its not hard enough weather, north east of us, we won't get the numbers flighting in on the moon. Iv seen less woodcock this year than ever before, I'd say down by or 90% :-(
  3. Not bad for a pair of fannys ;-) glad you both had a good time. Stig my money is on unlaced lying on the sofa with a beer, dictating to his long suffering mrs, who was typing away while feeding there new arrival, hence the wife sounding replie :-)
  4. That's the problem that gives other rifle lads a bad name, they drive about with no permission & whack away at any set of eyes that shine back.. Certainly needs a lesson taught one way or another, it's just down to you to decide what route you take.
  5. Life's to short mate, if you don't enjoy working away then pack it in. You live by your means no matter the wage your on. Iv always lived by "I work to live, not live to work" Well said cbdogs, same as me , wouldn't change it for the world..
  6. I couldn't get my pickers up to use one for love nor money. Drove me fecking crazy, waiting on the cart at the larder, for it to turn up with heads on strings & body's in the bottom.. Head twizzling fannys, I should have just shot the lot of um !!!!! :-)
  7. You've lost me. Edited to add, I'm with you now I know who it is :-) ya fanny
  8. Lol, well in 10 years up there I only met 1 boy who kept them, maybe you took it a little too literally , haha
  9. Is the law different down South ,on this ? I had to take a caution, for Alledgelly taking an Image on a mobile device or similar ,to the Fear and indangerment of an individual ?of one of my stalkers who had previously taken my Image ,which I failed to report ..So didn't count in my defence ...Shouldn't really be on here ,but HeY Ho ! really never knew that one thanks dixieWe've used that one a few times when I worked up there, works a treat. ( if I knew it was you Dixie I'd have retracted it ;-p)
  10. You'll be lucky, nige & jim, only ever take photos of hounds & birds on horses :-p
  11. I'm just back in from whacking a few rats on a local farm thought I'd catch up, Alimac, my terriers are as biddable as any gundog especially at pushing any sort of cover, they do catch more than I like if that's a fault but they spend 7 days a week all year round doing so, I would put my pack up against any other in this country safe in the knowledge that they wouldn't let me down, I hunt up in Scotland on my mates estate who's a headkeeper in Perthshire and then go further north to a mate in Wick before coming back down the west coast to stay in Drumnadrockit, Invernesshire, if your anywhere
  12. Wirral I agree with a lot of what you say on this site, but to state "spaniels have there place, but hunting rough cover isn't one of them" is quite simply ni on the biggest load of cock splat Iv read on here, ever !! It even beat the comment that terriers were more handleable than a spaniel, lol lol Lets be honest cover the size of whats being talked about where terriers have the edge, because of there size, is very rarely hunted with much success when bushing, unless there's a pack of them working it, it's simply too big a area for one or two to put enough pressure on the quarry to make it
  13. What a load of wank, f ucking grown men bickering on like kids & why?? My guess is its because you all give a shit what a stranger thinks or says. Here's a suggestion , instead of fighting each other, go into the corner and give yourselfs a good slap.. It's pathetic & makes you look like cocks :-) That's unless Iv missed something in the middle 50 pages, lol
  14. I personally don't know either way, but I do know a good few packs that did the whole lot this summer.
  15. Very interesting mate, very different to here in the uk, but interesting none the less, keep the posts coming !!
  16. Dipped mine in bitchamin paint today, went out this afternoon, my bolting / call out dog took a right shoeing, I even had to get the spade dirty & rescue it. Wtf is that all about ?!?!? So I conclude that foxes are scared of the wee flashing light, so I'm busy rigging some Xmas lights to my bellman, lol
  17. Nothing wrong with working a bitch in season, but like humans, they can be a bit hit & miss imo

    Wish my old pal took all the advise onboard. He thought it was all a big joke, sadly he paid the ultimate price in finding out it wasn't .. Sure it was type 2 he had but not certain. Look after yourselves chaps...
  19. A lot of hounds there, do they hunt 6 days a week or do they take more hounds hunting each day than we do in the uk?
  20. Well here's a completely legitimate answer...As hunting foxes is illegal, hunts will not hunt nor bolt foxes.. It's as plain and simple as that really, better off asking how keepers & pest controllers do it ;-)
  21. Makes f**k all difference ya clowns , lol , 9 times out of 10 when the dogs out, you can't see it for soil / mud anyway

  23. Tell mr pc to go re check the law!!!
  24. neither do i , there is near 20 TBs here ranging from foals to 10 yr olds and im around them everyday but i still wouldnt trust them .. that vid BPR put up nearly happened to me , i was trying to encourage a foal to walk on a lead rope , tell you now i shit myself when i seen hoofs Lucky your not normal height or it would've been square in the puss, instead of a foot over......When I was at the fife, a lad tripped over behind the huntsmans new horse at the meet, throwing a silver tray at its arse, he got double barrelled, in the chest neck face, he didn't get up quite as quick as the lad in th
