Nice one lads....... I'm struggling to hide my jealousy of your nice open buries lol....... Loving the bike too...

Great read Brimmer, and as been said well done your dad, ferreting a far from easy so hats off to him...... Interesting ideas on the ferrets mate we work different amounts up to 4 or 5 at a time... Although these are big thick hedges generally and I've found 1 can be given the run around although other days 1 determined ferret does the job... Depends on the day, conditions and terrain and the quality of the ferret.... Atb Kev

No, I don't think we grow up..... You have to stay childlike to enjoy crawling on your hands and knees through, brambles, nettles to catch the humble rabbit lol Enjoy your day mate.....

Cheers Baz, yeah he was an ugly git that's for sure, think the ferrets were more frightened of him.....

had trouble twice ferreting once when I was about 14, my brother his mate and me decided to ferret the back of a paddock that backed onto some fields near us ( the draw of the rabbits we seen there regularly was too much). Nets on ferrets in rabbits pooping out, we were having a great time....... Then we heard a shout, and saw a bloke marching down the paddock with a shotgun, next thing he's shot the gun in the air above our heads... We all hit the deck and possibly shit ourselves..... The bloke knew my dad but still told us to bugger off, I never mentioned it to my old man as I would of had a

Cheers for the replies lads The one: It is rough in the hedges but as always thats where they are, we just crawl in and cover what we can, the farmer asked me at the end of last season to do this bit as they realy damage the crops in the bottom half of the field, so you got to show a bit of willing.................. but I'll be some where easier next week

Well done lads, good writeup Malc

The plan was a 2 hr trip to Falmouth and some new permission that Mick had picked up, which was crawling, or so we were told. Six o'clock last night and it was all change, Mick couldn't get hold of the lady owner and we didn't fancy a long jaunt to find for some reason we couldn't get on the land, so we decided to go local on a bit of mine up the road. I had walked it yesterday morning with the dogs and seen a few sat out along a hedgerow between 2 arable fields, the plan was to start there and end up at the bottom of the farm where the new crops are just starting to come through and I've seen

I'm really busy, took some big risks in our business over the last couple of years and it could pay off........ Me and my brother started our business in 98 and have recently merged with another company we design and build steel frames and cladding packages, we've got a small fab shop for staircases, handrails etc. The main thing I've noticed is you've got to price tighter to win work but there is work out there........remember my dad last recession saying we were going to lose the house the lot, said he never had a job come in for nearly 6 months....... I agree that the big companies can man

Went when my eldest was 5 ( she's nearly 14 now), we drove there through the night but couldn't get in the room till 3 o'clock the first day was a bit hazy lol Went with my brother and sister in law and my niece ( same age as my girl) and the kids loved it, we packed up from breakfast each day ( made ham and cheese rolls, fruit etc) as everyone has said the food is silly prices. The misses got dragged up as one of the extras in the stunt show , running around screaming as cars were jumping all around etc lol Your little one will walk around mouth wide open, especially seeing all the charac

Great pics again mate, nice to see a man so proud of his dog and rightly so she obviously keeps you very happy.............. Plus she's a lovely looker Atb Kev

Sorry to hear about your bitch mate, I remember your post when you had her covered was looking forward to hearing about your progress.......... I'm looking to bring a pup myself early next year, looking at a similar breeding to what your after so will be putting the feelers out soon enough, if I hear of any litters of interest I'll let you know.

Haha sounds like my terrier mate, got to be honest that EBT of my mates is really steady, great with other dogs, ferrets kids the lot his 2 kids learnt to walk by pulling there selves up on her and she'll walk slowly as they hold on and totter beside her lol..... Really nice dog. He's kept them for years and they've all ratted and ferreted, she marks well and pins ( like a croc) in the net, obviously not got the speed for bolters but grabs a few as she dives in the hedge full tilt, just nice to see them out working instead of being paraded on street corners.....keep it up mate All the best

Had a look in my area and brought up an old case where a young lad off my estate was abused and murdered then chucked in the canal, knew the lad a bit and his family decent people and he was a promising sportsman.... You can't be to vigilant where your kids are concerned, I don't care what anyone says kids haven't the freedom of years ago as these dirty scum bags interact over the Internet and fuel each other.... That witch of a nursery nurse down our way few years back abusing kids and posting pics for other sick b*****ds to look at..... These are people you trust your kids with..... Sorry I

The worst of it was Ray, I only have to go 10 mins up the road to get a few runs but was keen to try this new bit of permo, took my brother and his young bitch to give her a few runs as well haha...... It is called hunting not catching I suppose. Atb Kev

Had the same last week mate, off to a new bit around an hour away with high hopes....... After the first 2 hours of walking we saw 2 rabbits and they were gone as soon as the lamp was on them..... Crossed the road to the other part of the farm, this was cracking looking land a couple of big arable fields then some nice sheep paddocks..... Not a thing....... Just the way it goes sometimes......
