    Someone in midlothian just sent me a photo of their yard covered in fairly deep snow. . . . .
  3. . . . . .You don't eating crackling? Something not right with you Jiggy.
  4. Bloody hell Malc. Just seen this. Keeping everything crossed for him making a good recovery mate. All the best to you and the family. Keep your chin up and give Lala a cwtch.
  5. Heres an honest question. . . . and I'm not looking for an argument. Its quite satisfying that they are bombing IS in Syria. However, does anyone think it will make any real positive difference to our safety and the global and internal terrorist threat? And why?
  6. Thats only about 86 kilo. I usually kill mine around there, but have done them from 60-100 kilo in the past. Edited to add - Just read thats what the killed out at, so would have been around 110/20 kilos live.
  7. Well in theory there should be another teacher with a gun or even a pupil! Haha.... Oh thats ok then (wheres the face / palm emoticon when you need it!)
  8. Looking good matey. Wont be long now and i'll be joining you in the promised land. Wouldn't mind seeing your dogs run? Ive got a bit of ground to go at
  9. The whole 'lets arm teachers' line is fundamentally flawed. What happens when a teacher cracks?
  10. Two passers by came to her rescue and he 'fell over some railings trying to escape and smashed his face up' honest officer. . . . . Good on her and them.
  11. No it was brought up specifically to not hunt them. Although I've another friend who took a job in a deer park once upon a time pre ban, he had some good deer dogs and managed to break them mostly to them, with collars and much shouting etc. They would not chase when in his presence or his wives, but other wise couldn't really be trusted. That's a very different proposition to what the OP wants to do,I don't think it would be that different to stockbreaking. But expecting an adult dog that knows the score to leave them alone off lead,sometimes in cover far away from its owner,I

  13. Right so first things first . . . . I'm the know it all? Whereas you saying that a dog that can be broken to bolting deer lacks drive and shouldn't be bred from is . . . . . ??? What exactly. When I wrote what I did, I KNEW it'd start an argument. . . . why? Because this site is full of folk who 'know it all' without having an actual point of reference, or personal experience of whatever is being discussed. So lets try to debate it without name calling. Anyway, I have seen a very driven dog turn its head and watch a group of fallow belting across a banking in front of it that it KN

  16. I would have agreed with you at one point. . . . . . maybe. But no, what you say is absolute bollocks.
  17. I'll ask. Seen a dog that knows they are quarry and knows it can take them, but won't chase them because its been told.
  18. Just reminded me, I used to spend a lot of time exploring the old defences on the beaches / cliffs in France, they were fascinating.
  19. I have made many spoons and other things with the mora knives you have shown. I like the single edged hook knife, otherwise I end up cutting my thumb!
  20. There is only one way to find out matey. . . . . And there are a lot of digging dogs out there with buggered up jaws / teeth. . . . that still do the job!
  21. Very true. . . . . and probably why he mentioned it in the initial post. . . . .? What species APART FROM big reds. . . . .
