  1. Nice thread with 3 pages drivel at the end to wade through
  2. True all the shooting folks keep banging on about pest control I assume to make out they are complying with the general licence rubbish but unless your getting paid your doing it because you enjoy it. Nothing wrong with that though now a days your meant to hang you head in shame. But just because you enjoy it don't mean to say you don't care. Was out practising with the catty last week and passed a hare squatting less then 6 yards away. Would made perfect headshot and the next day a nice duck. Neither were touched just because of the time of year. My choice. September there might been steel ba
  3. A JR I had as a young fella. His qualities were endless Would track a rabbit like a hound and he would spend as long as it took working the scent out and would not quit. Once he hit a line it pretty much game over if I did my bit once it went to ground. If a rabbit bolted and slipped the nets he would follow it to ground then turn round and come back and help out until it was clear then take me where he had marked. If a rabbit bolted through sheep he would run wide so as to go around the sheep rather the storm through them if he could. 110% with sheep I could literally bet an arm on

    Pups

    They should be good I love a terrier. Just wouldn't be practical around here. That lakeland looks the spit of one I had a kid though they all look same. What a tit he was lol. Good luck with them I reckon they will be ideal
  5. So ridiculous and all that money spent looking into it. Should just lobbed him couple a cage traps and jar peanut butter or some thing. Plus the idiot that reported him when they heard a twang not like he was letting rip with shotgun. Just a joke. Still remember as a kid the old boy walking down the main road in winter shooting pigeons on the edge of the forestry and walking through the village gun over his arm. He was great angler too and out on the stream after any rain whipping out little trout. Made it look so easy
  6. Very interesting to see peoples experiences as my next pup was hopefully sired couple of weeks ago. She is a half cross collie greyhound , he is a half cross kelpie /welsh collie x greyhound. All I want is a nice little rabbit dog that will potter about fishing and with the gun and maybe find me any shot ducks that when wounded are sneakiest little sods going. I want a step back from the present bull cross attitude of lets pummel any thing that moves. For the first time in my life I am in no rush to work the dog but looking forward to training and just mooching about. The mum retrieves a ball
  7. Old Putin was giving it some cobblers this morning making out his all concerned about lives. When his just throwing his folks into the firing line with out a thought. Like they are just expendable
  8. Seems ok only used it once but seems solid enough. Works fine and does the job. Makes a fair old whack sound though depending where you plan to use it
  9. Neither have I jok I can't hit a barn but slowly getting to grips with it. Only ten yards or so at moment. But it is surprising what chances you get out and about. I often spy the odd rabbit in a hedge row squatting tight only yards away or the odd squirrel
  10. Came today. Very handy was getting fed up lugging cardboard about or proper jumpers up on twigs. Fits in bag ok and light about 16 inch round so i can just about hit it lol
  11. Saw a video the other day they found some hidden trucks and people. Dropped bombs all over them and not a single bit of movement. No body legging it vehicles never moved nothing
  12. Another thing I dont get is why the need to broadcast every thing on news. Don't need spies any more just watch the news. The Russians know exactly what weapons we are sending and how much money blah blah. Why do they have to brag about every thing. Just shut up and get on with it and give us the bullet points so to speak now and again
  13. Must be scary as hell out there to be honest. You can be all sneaky sneaky but with thermal and drones you could be in some ones cross hairs at any time.
  14. On going I think https://www.thenational.scot/news/20040089.holyrood-inquiry-banning-hunting-animals-packs-dogs-launches/
  15. As a comparison an ultra marathan winner did 50 miles from brecon to cardiff on a trail in 06:53:26 so he ran end to end. So just under 8 minute miles. Took me 11.5 haha and even I jogged the bulk of it
  16. Well it seems to be escalating nicely It was obvious at some point the russians were going to say you can't give them weapons and intel and make out your not in the fight.
  17. Sad but the report is all over the shop. Dad turned his back for a second turned around and dog had done this. "It fractured his jaw, ripped all of his nose, ripped out three teeth from the root - he had to have hundreds and hundreds of stitches, they lost count of how many." Suspect they must left him for more than a second. My lurcher is muzzled around my granddaughter and she is two. No chances ever taken. Crated and muzzled if the new born grandson ever comes around and I prefer it if he don't to be honest. 30k of muscle and teeth that has the reactions of a snake you can't tak
  18. So do I but no one told the dog lol
  19. I might hang some sheets of corrugated tin ?
  20. Yea and can your dog stand there and watch or smell a fox or bloody badger go trundling by its snout
  21. The Russians are doing the right thing regarding Mariupol. I was thinking yesterday why are they bothering go in. Feel for the poor sods stuck in there though. I guess there only option now other than die of thirst or starve would be to try and break out. They seem determined to fight till the end so may as well go out with a bang
  22. I reckon Ukraine getting more help than is being let on which makes sense obviously. Russia's pride and joy is over there go and point a couple of these at it. That should do the trick
