  1. RAW I hope you don't me giving you some advice (or the person who owns these hounds), but cut the "spears" off those bars, or one day one of them little fellers will try and jump through the gap, and get impaled on them, not nice to see! Or get some weld mesh on the top half.
  2. The book is much better than the film, Dennis Waterman as a whipper-in never quite did it for me. The hunt followers and hounds used for the film were from The West Somerset Vale.
  3. D Barker is a Yorkshireman, and as straight a talker as you would ever meet, lol, also was one of the best international showjumpers of his day, I'm pretty sure he won the European Championships.
  4. if all else fails ring Edgar Bros, I know they have had problems with these rifles and a lot of them have needed recrowning, they should do it free of charge.
  5. I have just purchased a Barska 4-16x50 for my HMR, Mil Dot, 1st Focal Plane, Ill. Ret, Side Focus, £180, good value for money, IMO.
  6. "Flambards", mate, good day out for the family if it's wet, if it's fine get them on the beach, ice cream, pasty and a saffron bun, what more could you want from life
  7. I don't know to do the linky things, but a couple of my favourites are Angel by Sarah McLachlan, and As Only a Womans Heart Can Know by Eleanor McEvoy, they can both bring tears to my eyes. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=tjQP9931NhU http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=7CbAjj80NIM
  8. I have recently had to get reading glasses, nothing wrong with my long vision, it was Specsavers for me and very good they were too, but you only get the two for one deal if you buy frames over £75. And if anyone out there is suffering from headaches and blurred vision when you're on the pc or reading, get some glasses, I wish I'd gone 2yrs ago.
  9. I once saw a man kissing a sheeps ass, I said "you dirty b*****d", he looked up and said "it's not what you think, I've got chapped lips". "Oh", I said "that cures it then". "Oh no" he says, "but it stops you from licking them".
  10. I could not agree with you more Wilf, often what I've thought and felt myself, good on you for saying it. And before everyone comes piling in, I have been responsible for the deaths of a few thousand in my time.
  11. Nice, honest, write up, and good to hear that you leave those that are helping you out.
  12. There must be a lot of people out there read this forum, I went to my local Halfords the other day and "sorry sir, we're right out of Vauxhall Leaf Green, seems very popular at the moment". I'm sure Glen's got shares in the paint co.
  13. I've got my first one of the season to do tomorrow.
  14. Apparently, the other day at a press conference he was being quizzed about his sex life, a journalist asked him if he'd ever slept with a man, " not yet", he replied,
  15. Well done Daz, glad to see someone goes after the crows, everybody does the magpies but the crows are worse IMO, and need culling every bit as much as the magpies!
  16. I too remember Budgie, I used to love the bit in the credits where he trips and falls and all the money floats in the air, I used to dream of being there to grab the money, those where the days
  17. how about a 6.5 x 47 Lapua, I think Baldie has one, and I believe it's a winner!
  18. are you telling me, that a bull x, was that commited to taking a cow was scared/called off, with out choking it off!? id say 99% of the dogs ive seen, "connected" to quarry need to be choked off! you sound more of a shooter than a dog man? If you'd bothered to read my other post you will see that I said "the bull knocked it off", furthermore I currently have two english bull terriers, and a lab. Over the years I have looked after a lot of working dogs, terriers, lurchers, foxhounds, beagles, even bassets, and had a staffy before the english, don't judge a book by the cover my friend.
  19. Nice rifle and I echo the comments on the Simmons
  20. you cant tar every body with the same brush look at some of the twats we got running the country it takes all sorts .yes i agree with you they are proper c//ts and as far as permision goes it is mainly down to \\ITS MY LAND AND IM NOT SHARING IT WITH ANY BODY ATITUDE//i hope the farmer gets to shoot there dog . The thing is mate, you do get tarred with the same brush, and you can well imagine what his reply is going to be nextime if anyone does bother to ask him first. This is going back to the original post, you cannot condone shooting willy nilly off a road just as you cannot condone what
  21. Last night a farmer, customer, and friend of mine, saw a lamp being swung across his fields, this happens on a regular basis, but being one man and probally up against a car load there is not a lot he can do. On this occasion he heard his cattle making a fair din and took a torch to see what was going on. Now this man has a small dairy farm, for the last 7 years he has milked morning and night and driven for a haulage firm by day, just to make ends meet and to keep farming, he has always backed field sports, been on every march and has done a lot for hunting over the years, imagine the shock a
  22. The first thing to do in those situations is to put your lamp on and shine it at them to let them know you are there, if you are out and do not have a lamp DO NOT LOOK AT THEIR LIGHT, sounds obvious, but to all the youngsters and inexperienced on here you may find you are drawn to it like moths to a flame, I repeat DON'T LOOK AT THEIR LIGHT, turn your back and slowly walk away, get behind a tree, in a ditch, anything till they have gone, but don't look at them!
