  1. Nobody would agree on the best song ever far too many to choose from. Couple of my favourites not so well known are one white duck jethro tull, great acoustic. And 20 century man the kinks nearly fifty years old but still relevant lyrics. Sorry but cant upload on this poxy pc.
  2. Nothing humble about whippets mate cracking little dogs, mine gets me out every day, great attitude youve got, im the same it doesnt bother me if we blank its just being out there that keeps me going.
  3. Das boot, and what was that film starring kirk douglas about the execution of french soldiers accused of cowardice in ww1
  4. Daytime for me theres no better experience than watching your dogs using all there senses smell hearing sight and experience, thats true lurcher work i love lamping but truth is its easy game for a good dog, purely sight work, just sitting and watching a dog working cover, and ditches gives me more of a buzz.
  5. One of mine is ten now, she picks her runs but the heart is still there as a young un she very rarely missed now ferreting she is still the best dog of the pack great nose always in the right place for bolters theirs no substitute for experience, and she probably catches more than the rest of them, sad when you see a dog in decline, but that little bitch has a special place in my heart and when the time comes she will lay in front of the fire and dream of the glory days. That dog has done me proud and i hope for many more days out with her.YIS KIC.
  6. I think you have misunderstood the point of this thread. It's not about race or religion, it's about whether (A) you would / could pull the trigger and (B ) what the outcome would be. Did not misunderstand the question A yes no problem . B in this country i think me being white caucasian the answer is pretty obvious,
  7. Reading this thread the fear of being branded a racist is scaring most people of telling the truth about what their views really are, i do not condone violence but i find it hard to sit back and listen to the bullshit that is being spouted . Yes i would view the situation and if the need arose i would use my gun, as would many others on here. No doubt certain ethnic minorities? would have a field day in the press about how their peace loving religion was being insulted, and the liberals and other assorted tree huggers would come out in support of them. I for one will never be converted to the
  8. Racism is a two sided coin but not in this country they call us infidels we call them anything and you are branded a racist, classic example of a one sided coin. Succesive weak politicians and euro puppets are making the situation in this country worse by the day. Churchill must be turning in his grave.
  9. My saluki whippet has served me well, best 30 yarder ive owned lightning early pace 10 years old now but still nailing them.
  10. Cost about 3 or 4 quid would cost you about 5 years if you made one here.
  11. Think that Rillington strain came from that way, they were originally earthdogs. I know a lad who genuinely uses beddys for earthwork these he keeps have fell blood in the mix. I asked him if hed ever used his digging dogs on a whippet or greyhound and he said there too small for use in producing lurchers. Which I thinks a real shame cus most pure beddys that are used are either massive bushing dogs only or kc stuff Rillington strain is the product of george newcombes dogs, rillington is a village near malton nth yorks were george once lived, originally the beddy was known as the rothberry fi
  12. Years ago when i raced whippets i had a little bitch, that was a dual purpose dog racing sundays working the rest of the time, now that dog howled like a banshee when in the traps, but ran silent when coursing, in my mind the howling was a result of anticipation the dog knew what was coming and couldnt wait for the trap to open. So i would say that tarring the breed as yappers is wrong, a lot of cases were probably entered too soon, also the beddy whippet i owned never once opened up as said beddys were always regarded as working mute.

    Scum

    Its about time that the sentence for dog theft, was put on a par with kidnapping a child, they are in effect like children to some people, the heartache and anguish this causes is hard to comprehend. I know i would not be responsible for my actions if i caught one of these lowlifes trying to steal my dog.
  14. Always good to watch jacks programs i remember when this was first shown and it started a ressurgence of people wanting whirriers, note no locaters just old school methods. Wish we had presenters like jack nowadays, all we see now is raving antis like chris packham, craven and oddie spouting their self opinionated crap, all combined they have about one tenth of the knowledge of the countryside that jack had. I really miss those days before all this politically correct crap came about. YIS KIC
  15. I work both of mine together during daytime, lamping is a different thing one dog at a time, its too bloody dangerous and why risk losing a dog in a pointless exercise. There is no better feeling than when your dogs become a team that works together, all the stuff that you cant train them for suddenly gels and they work as one its brilliant to watch.
  16. Bushmills for me, ireland the true home of whiskey.
  17. How many of you wear the poppy, i always do but it seems to me that some people seem to find it slightly embarrasing, christ knows why, ive seen a lot of young people wearing it and credit due to them for realising the sacrifice made, so that they can have the freedom of choice to do as they please. Reason i ask is this i was talking to a woman in the pub and her view was that wearing the poppy was a sign of glorification of war. Now i will listen to anyones point of view but i found that pretty disrespectful to the many that made the ultimate sacrifice , whats your view.
  18. That concept is total illogical.... Certainly is Mr Spock.
  19. Spot on gnash diame was a gift at that price, bruce is doing a brilliant job, better than brown could ever do. Got his hands full with all this crap over the name change, What name change everybody in hull knows them as the tigers so why all the crap over a name .Allam has pumped millions into the club and were seeing the benefits so why the hell do 2000 whingers under the name of city till we die want to balls it all up,For a city with a population of 250,00 to have a possible top ten prem club is a brilliant achievment,
  20. Got a mate who believes strongly in reincarnation, he once said to me his greatest wish was to come back as a plains indian, pre white man of course, He said you couldnt imagine having thousands of square miles to hunt at leisure, and if you dont like your neighbours just kill them. fair play id say.
  21. No dogs sounds like a right bag of shite, a gamefair with no dogs unbelievable.
  22. Had lurchers for over 50 years 62 now seen a lot of changes and not for the better, know more than a lot of so called dogmen, less than some and still learning, and still love the game ,
