  1. exactly...even though this site is full of helmets there are some proper decent people on here aswell. Thats what I was tactfully trying to say
  2. Fair play to you getting him out there and having a go mate...... As said pick your nights and pick your runs for the minute give him the best chance you can..... Shake the lamp when the rabbit nears the hedge it often puts them off and they make mistakes, they'll hit the hedge,bank, fence whatever if your dogs up their ass it'll work to his advantage, I don't know what land you run but if you've got some small paddocks around with tight hedges or sheep netting concentrate on these they'll suit him more as I would think. I run a fairly small dog mate and she don't miss a lot if you stack the o
  3. Sounds a good enough day to me mate..... And your new fert done you proud
  4. Sorry to hear that Rob but nice one Redtail....... Another time this site shows what this hunting game is about........... Good luck with the new fert hope he does you proud
  5. One of mine lost a lot of hair this year both the lads I regularly ferret with had jills that lost hair too, more than normal, mines all back now, in fact her coat looks great. Should be nothing to worry about mate other than crazy woman hormones lol
  6. Cheers All Sean, it was pretty rough mate, I've got the typical hands after the day before , the ferret was a pain in the ass mate cost us a bit of time... still a good day..... I'll speak to you soon about a day, got a big hedge on a bit between the pair of us it's too thick at the minute, we'll have a look after a couple of frosts.....
  7. Know what you mean on that mate, we catch the majority in the run nets on the top, you just can't get at some of the holes to net them. Tend to use a long purse net ( 1 peg) and not pokes with 2 pegs, I did ask on here before about the D ring fronted nets and if people had used them.... Not tried them but could be useful...... We didn't miss any yesterday, more luck than judgement I reckon.... Cheers Kev
  8. Nice one mate.....nice ferreting when you can pop home for brekkie...
  9. Don't even start on the cover lads Nice one Jai and the dog looks in good shape
  10. Cheers Tomo, it's nice to be out in places like that mate.. Cheers Bill, it was a top day....... Martha let those ponies know when they got a bit to close to me
  11. Yesterdays trip was to a new bit of permission right on the ege of Dartmoor, this is a smallish farm with sheep and some cattle plus a few ponies. I met Mick at 7 15 and followed him the 30 mins or so to the farm, We'd only just got out of the car when Bella my jrt started marking around some machinery she pushed herself underneath and out popped a rabbit that Martha missed at least we knew there was some here. It's the usual story on new permission your told theres loads there by the farmer but your never sure until your there. We walked all of 40 yrds when the dogs marked on a thick he
  12. Yet again top pics mate.... Fine looking whippet....
  13. Spot on Newkid, if they dont know you,v been there then they dont go looking for you, nobody misses a bunny or two or hares for that matter but leave the birds alone, buster. On one of my bits of permission the farmer has said if we see any hare to leave them alone...... I said your safe with the hares as I only run a beddy whip but the fallow on the land is far from safe lolol....
  14. There's some stunning blokes out there mate haha The whole prostitute thing ain't my bag, it's a beautiful country ( apart from Bangkok which I couldn't wait to get out of) and the people are really friendly. We stayed in hua hin ( spelling) on the east coast and it wasn't a prozzie tourist trap....... Sorry this has nothing to do with Amsterdam haha
  15. Dear Cretins Haha brilliant.......
  16. Went to Thailand about 14 years ago with my ex girlfriend....we were sat in a bar and the most beautiful girl in there was sat on the bar she was stunning ,figure to die for shown off in a little mini skirt and tight top, she kept looking over at me and my ex was started to get a bit pissed off......Then "she" opened "her" legs whilst still looking at me and showed off "her" meat and 2 veg barely concealed in a lacy pair if knickers.... My ex thought it was highly amusing, I felt sick..,..
  17. You bunch of bstsrds, you forced me to take my wife and kids to the caf and eat a belly buster........ Off out for a yomp with the dogs to burn it off.......
  18. Good write up and pics mate.....
  19. Good write up vin, and what better way to finish the day than a bowl of rabbit stew.... Nice one lads
  20. Agree with you mate, don't tend to work the same warren twice in 1 season, quite fortunate that we have enough land to mean we can do this. If you have to work the same warrens in the season try to rotate them so you give them as long as possible between visits. Atb Kev
  21. It's simple really if you are out poaching make every effort to be discreet its not rocket science, even down to tying the gate ropes the same as you found them, the old boys who first took me were poachers and were respectful to the land, if you go cutting fences, leaving gear lying around etc its only a matter of time till the land is so red hot you won't be able to move.... And common courtesy, manners etc go a long way to gaining permission or easing a fraught situation................ Also it's not just young lads, maybe they need a bit of guidance at times you always get the odd dick in
  22. That's good to know Skycat, my terrier suffers a bit with phantom pregnancies, I was advised to use galastop, but noticed she got really miserable I put it down to the hormones from the season but now I'm thinking it maybe the galastop.......
  23. I lamp mine mate and works with the ferrets, she's 3/4 whip 1/4 bed, she ain't a bad rabbiting dog so far mate...... Got her faults but I think most have if truth be told......... Good luck with your pup
  24. Cheers Kev, Bron is coming along nicely mate, she's a little excitable at times but other than that she's turning into a decent little bitch. . Glad to hear it mate, as a kid we had collie x's I'll be looking for a pup next spring and it will definitely have some collie in it, hope yours comes good for you mate. Atb Kev
