Cheers lads, She is Bill, got her faults as I've said before, but she try's hard enough.... She's getting better with the ferrets all the time, which is what I think she'll eventually shine at ( with a bit of luck), and she can catch on the lamp.... I'm still looking at bringing a bigger dog in next year maybe, it's hard work for her on some of this land, but can't knock her effort.... How's Zac doing now, is he fully recovered? Atb Kev

I got a call from the farmer up the road on Sunday, moaning about the rabbits on his drilled fields, we had tried to ferret 1 of the hedges on this bit a few weeks back but it was inpenetrable in places, so we are waiting for him to cut it back a bit as promised. I said I would be up with the dog in the week so last night seemed as good as any ( no wind this week but at least it's black), this is tough ground big hilly fields with the bottom half mainly arable and the top, really hilly sheep fields. I realise this is not ideal land for my little whippet x, but thats what I've got so she'd hav

Is this one going up on the auction??????

Another top write up mate, well done on that young dog looks a real nice one....

As said, run nets in the hedge catch a fair amount of our rabbits, it becomes obvious when you stick your head in where the runs are, you need a decent size net for the runs, we use 4ft or 5ft purse nets and not poke nets with 2 pegs. Don't often use long nets along the hedge, just stop nets...... The odd 1 that makes a break for it over the field is a bit of sport for the dog.... Not often we ferret anything but hedges

times when your dogs made you look a twat
NEWKID replied to Ray Mears's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Had a springer that constantly made me look a twat Used to take him on site , twice he ran through freshly laid concrete He jumped in the front of a carpenters car, nicked his sandwich the chippy tried to grab him, the dog ran through the car out of the boot gulped the sandwich down ( still in cling film ) and then spewed the cling film up. We were fishing on Barry Beach one night after work, looked around and the dog had disappeared, heard a bark from above and saw the dog at the top of the cliff.... He spotted me and took the short route back, straight over the edge.. He tried to run -

NEWKID replied to Ray Mears's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Was ferreting the railway bank with a mate when I was a lad, I had my whippet x and he had his dads ancient jack russel..... It's not a main line, it runs down to exmouth, any way, we were bolting a few when we heard the train coming, the driver shouts out the window at us to get off the railway edge, my mate give him a hand gesture... And he stops the train.... He's backing up the line I've grabbed the gear and jumped the fence my dog behind me and ran through the field to some bushes, I look round expecting to see my mate but he's running along the line... I haven't a clue what he's doing th -
Good post tomo and pics vin I wonder where you were........... Lol

Good read Brimmer and nice end of day photo..... Often wonder myself why somedays they just don't bolt as expected, like you say could just be the ferrets are fitting up but I also think the disturbance of digging can cause more digs... Atb Kev

NEWKID replied to the_stig's topic in General Talk
Like the idea of this I reckon a fair amount could be raised, I've got a triple ferret box and a load of fishing gear here I'd like to donate, hopefully this can get sorted...... If not I'll sell the gear and donate the money.......... Some good ideas Christian....... Where did those sensible posts come from lol... -
Sorry to hear that mate, hope things turn around for you soon...

Suarez will get a few goals this year no doubt................. Liverpool are f*cked if he don't.....
-
hey numbnuts I never said he wouldn't get a game, I said he wouldn't get into the team over the players we have there in a striking role He'd be out on the wing in a support role easily over Nani or Young, but would you put someone with his goal record into a front line before last seasons top two premier league goal scorers..? who knows mate all i say is if he can carry liverpool so well he would be ok goal hanging at old trafford............ anyway i thought you welsh and scots normally love little south american players who cheat using handballs in the world cup................

Suarez would get a game at utd for sure...... But f*ck would utd only have 1 striker in the club lol

No chance! Suarez is never likely to get the amount of goals that an in form Torres, Van Persie, Agureo, type striker brings to the team. His chance conversion ratio is awful compared to the top strikers at the top teams.. He needs to be paired with another decent forward IMO.. He looked pretty sharp yesterday Malt.... how many chances did he convert into goals yesterday though? His record is appalling in front of goal, something like an 8% rate compared to the 25% or more of the other strikers at the other big clubs, look it up.. Yes he scored a truly world class goal yesterday

Good to see Zack bak out and about Bill....... You really are the new Paulus though

The problem being Wenger is a brilliant manager who over the years has produced some of the best football and players the country has seen, which almost makes him unsackable..... The only other "unsackable" manager in the league bought his best player and revamped a side with quality again..... I'm not sure what Wengers allowed or not allowed to spend but could you ever see Fergie staying on as manager if his team couldn't compete.... Arsenal and Utd were the heaviweights of the prem, ok Chelsea and City have the financial clout to be the top teams but Fergie won't let them have it all their o

The thing is Malt it's been a while since Torres has been in any sort of form.....did Liverpool see it coming? Have the niggly injuries caught up? Who knows but at this moment in time I don't think you'd swap Suarez for Torres, I agree though he needs another striker up with him but when gerrard and him are fir
