I’m originally from a small market town over the last couple of years knife crime as increased dramatically in my old town it seems a regular thing now over the last month there’s been 3 stabbings Friday on my way home from work I pulled through the town to be greeted by a road closer cop cars everywhere traffic was a stand still I see a old face from back in the day I said hey up shag wagwan he said load of pakis stormed the Albanian barbers with bats an knifes and started scraping he said obviously over gear we both agreed the town has become a shit hole not like the old days were you got a

Yeah was a shame really nice little car just bruised up but not badly hurt Volvos are built properly like army tanks. them little novas wasn’t built to last they got a timeless look to them with the box arches bit like the lancer delta rally car back in the day I was looking for a nova a couple of months ago as I had a idea in my head of getting back in to cars and doing a project build I wanted to build a rally car as a project but soon gave up on the idea when I started looking at basic car prices and the gear needed to build it the little nova definitely wasn’t built to last

Another good car I had back in the day that I got for a bargain price was a nova Sri I give £150 for it the lad that owned it had paid £1400 for it a couple of months prior it had a scorpion Alarm and immobiliser fitted and mobilised its self he was quoted £1000 for a auto electrician to remove the immobiliser so I asked what he wanted he said scrap value so give him £150 I didn’t need the car but it was a mint one got it recovered to my girlfriends parents gaff me and her old man removed the alarm and immobiliser within 15mins I was on the road in it the following day rapid little car kept it

Cheap small engine cars round my way are none existent now due to the scrapage scheme they used to have running I just got lucky probably wouldn’t find a car that cheap again. Used to always keep my eyes peeled for a bargain car when I was a mechanic apprentice buy em fix em sell them on with 12months ticket.

Best banger I had was a n reg 1000cc vw polo I bought my girlfriend as a first car give £120 for it because I didn’t fancy putting her in one of my decent motors after a year I bought her a nice car but we kept the polo for 7yrs as a back up vehicle the thing was bulletproof never serviced it ragged the crap out of it used it an abused the thing just kept going and keep going through the mots I used it as a dog wagon great car proper poverty spec vehicle the last mot I took it to it failed on a small patch of welding I sold it for 250

Old sausage fingers and horse face I wouldn’t like to say I support them as monarchs or even good ones that will be remembered in history as doing anything good for the country not a king or so called queen

The pinto engine is a legendary engine mate strong and revs to the moon I’m sure the ford cosworth engine is loosely based off a pinto but with a 16v head and turbo still see a few blue birds at the heavy metal classic god knows were there finding them same as the granadas and cortina’s some of these cars are buggered when they get them they fix em to twist them almost seems a shame but it’s there hobby same as some of these big old jags

Roe,muntjac and badgers by me massive explosion of badgers I could do numbers on them if that was a thing seen a couple of hares close by that’s a good sign as they ain’t been around here for years think they have been dropped off

I love a bit of banger racing I don’t race but get to a few meetings a year I’ve got mates and there kids that race in the national hot rods,prod rods and drift rods. We have a lads day out the first meeting a year the heavy metal classic it’s a brilliant day out we always talk of us all building a banger each to race but I don’t think my body would be able to handle the overs bangers but the micro bangers I’d be up for but seems a lot of money to waist just to build a car to bend up. Do love a good walk around the pits to chat with people about there cars and look at what there racing seems l

Nice looking pup been a big decline in numbers by me for about 15 or so yrs got worse an worse to the point were I jacked in the end running dogs the last season I worked my bitch I ended the season on 96 lamped rabbits all season I put in the graft I’d walk miles an miles for runs most outings was normally 1 or 2 rabbits in the bag a few blank nights then the following season become my last I started the season with all the enthusiasm in the world I was pulling all nighters looking for runs with little to no return it was like Barron land I come to a conclusion after all these years of runn

Started growing a bit again didn’t grow nothing last year as our little veg plot was flattened as we changed the garden round completely this year we decided to do a little pallet collar garden we got 10 to grow in. already got a few bits in we’re doing spuds in buckets and tomatoes the rest in the pallet collars we’re doing it no dig but trying to be savy with it the minute something is harvested something goes back in making a big push to get my kids involved in it

Said no charges were bought against them apparently. We had a pair of xl bully’s kill someone’s pet dog as well recently on the outskirts of the old town I’m from the man and woman with the bully’s just walked off like nothing happened they were appealing for the owners to come forward or any one with ring doorbells forage but think someone let the po po know who they were as we see a woman is being prosecuted and dogs taken off her bit of a shame because the dog they killed was a nice looking little thing
-
They wasn’t mate no charges was bought against the person my guess is it was a pet dog walker and the police thought they were looking for someone actively out hunting that they wanted to try making a point about so they could put it on blast that they had court hunting folk illegally hunting

Couple of weekends ago opposite my gaff we noticed police everywhere and a police helicopter doing its rounds over the land it went on for a few hours I said to her indoors they gotta be looking for a missing person or kid with that amount of response or possibly found some one dead on the land couple of days past an my misses gets on to the local fb group and sees all the police cars /helicopter was all for a dog reported killing a deer I said see the worlds gone mad love all that for a report of a dog killing a deer you can see why I called the hunting crack a day.beginning of the week her i

I’ve never seen this cross but I’d sooner take a chance on this cross as a busher than the modern beddy x whippet bred a spaniel x whippet makes so much sense for this job and seems less a risk of you getting a dog incapable of the job

Decent beddy blood as been thin on the ground for years I personally think the only way to get decent beddy blood in Lurchers is from beddy bred Lurcher bitzas only problem is with beddy Lurcher’s is people are hung up on the f1 or 1/4 bred thing
-
My old f1 beddy whippet threw the same more to the beddy side of things she was 17tts didn’t really have any pace sort of like just one gear and it wasn’t particularly fast but a handy enough bitch to have about as we used to keep a mixed bag of dogs on our little team for different jobs these little slower type Lurchers always proved a asset to the team when out day walking/ bushing or pushing woodland they always got stuff moving and handy over a warren while ferreting
