  1. Look out folks be some ignitions going on now ? 3.75 off eBay couldn’t be arsed to make them my self. Too fiddly.
  2. No they can't catch bolters like a whippet though they can nab them if in the right place. But if you use nets does it matter Lurchers and whippets can mark fine. I have one my self. But the simple fact is a lurcher no matter how good at cover it is can't get where a busher can get like the terrier types. Hows a lurcher meant to get in there. or a big old bramble bank. Lots of times around here you will find a nice little 2 holer on the edge of bank empty because the rabbit is sat in the cover but nine times out of ten if you flush it it will end up in the little easy two
  3. I do the same with the beans Arry. I like to start as much off as I can in what ever as sowing direct unless you can visit every night never really pays off. Though stuff like carrots, parsnips have to go for it
  4. I like mine to have a go then come out last thing I want to be doing is digging big holes in the middle of hedge rows
  5. The boating life sounds all chilled and relaxing so maybe lob an over weight basset out the window or some thing ?
  6. Locator is a bargain and trusted seller too. Good luck with the boat sounds a nice life

  9. houston we have problem. Made my second cuppa today of tea and christ it had strong metal taste Hope it was a one off.
  10. Rabbits around here lay out in cover. In your goes your busher with his super beagle honker. Flushes rabbit, track rabbit to ground. Net up ferret in rabbit netted done. You can't get more efficient. If rabbit slips net off goes your busher with his super honker until it goes to ground again. No escape really. So yea I would say a lot of use. In fact better than a lurcher in my opinion
  11. As a beginner what has helped a lot after numerous youtube vids is hitting the muscles direct and really focus on the muscle concerned. Surprising how little weight you need to nacker it out. Rather than blasting a big weight or trying and using half your body to do it. Just my findings so far oh and the other finding is high protein diet really annoys the wife ?
  12. I train every 3 day so i have two rest. One thing I have noticed training at home dumb bells for pressing and flies etc has made much more progress than bar bell
  13. Most efficient way to catch them I reckon. Good work
  14. I think the batteries are where it has improved with the old lithiums. Don't recall when sealed lead acid batteries came out may have been back then and I just couldn't afford one. I can't remember the details to be honest but have vague memory of my blue eye million candle power I think even though it had a good range I don't it had any glare at all. Or maybe I just didn't have to worry about it so much back then because every small holding wasn't owned by some anti. Just old farmers who for the most part were too tired or couldn't give a hoot at some one catching a few rabbits. Was th
  15. Could never afford a van ? Had to settle for this to terrorise the country side I got stopped so many times when ever I passed a cop car I just pulled over before they even moved. Great days the country was a lot better back then
  16. That's a good point there was no mistaking that smell and you sort of got used to the burning tingle lol
  17. There was no shame in that dog jiggy he was a cracker
  18. That looks a handy gadget but looks more suited to camping I would have thought
  19. A good little terrier pup will work its way through the list rats,rabbits squirrels then it scent old charlie one day and naturally do its thing. Once you to that point you can keep it leaded up and go earth checking. You can't force the issue. In the early days you want things to go the dogs way easily nice shallow earths on braken banks or small hedge row ones so you can get down quick. Just my vague memories of it all
