  1. If there was ever a time I was going to skimp on bagging it was when I made this pissing thing ? I got it done with a 100% and it catches fine. Yes I dropped a mesh on the running line lol
  2. I just don't like the look of all them baskets and stuff Micky. I need a bloody sherpa half the time as it is ?
  3. They are both Allans. The grey one is an old fishing net. Must be a fair few years old. The last net he made me just a year or ago was a nice little 15 yarder which I often carry around. Had a rabbit with it this morning ferreting. Nice handy little length
  4. I don't own a quick set never seen the attraction plus its nice to keep with tradition
  5. The two nets idea was good thinking
  6. That is basically it. I don't do so much now since having the lurcher as I would rather run him. But also if you get it right the long netting can be pretty effective. If you have a spot with ten rabbits on the right night you have a chance of bagging the lot or the bulk of them. With numbers so low the last 4 years I go easy. This spot was a nice blind set you could do on a full moon if you wanted. You could go there any time of day and see rabbits. Now there is nothing. Lamped it a few times and not seen one.
  7. Cracking pup nice to see some thing a bit different
  8. I had it once and ended up with a litter i didn't want lol. Most vets have no experience of it that's the thing
  9. The thing is the test costs the same as the op or take a chance. Just been quoted from 71. to 220. haha but the 71. costs another 71 for the test. Might just take a chance.
  10. Not sure if its bravery or stupidity lol
  11. Yea exactly a fortune lol
  12. Amazing how expensive it is. Some little patch used for sod seems to cost a fortune
  13. I can see that in the mirror now man tries to ignite dogs bollocks
  14. The long netting section has some great threads going back over the years. Some real knowledge and memories to folks since passed. Inevitably one day this site will gone and it will all be gone. Some one should whack it in a book for posterity
  15. his fine now mate and back in action
  16. Mine did the same chaff a few weeks ago. His back was in a spasm or some thing and giving him agony. I didn't know and came home from work and just stroked his back in passing. Well fook me he screamed spun around and got right up to me all teeth. I stood me ground and cleaned the carpet behind later But he was in a bad way and he wouldn't come near for about 4 days because he thought I hurt him. His also been a possessive sod all his life but getting better and we never really have issues now. But its some thing I keep an eye on. Lots on here would have done away with him long ago. But
  17. No nothing this morning and I could only leave them for one night for one reason and another. So no hare stew for me yet lol
  18. Hunting with dogs is doomed for sure espeacially the chase a catch stuff types like your lurcher and sight hounds. Only a matter of time and not long I reckon. The gundogs with get a stay of execution for a while any way as they are seen differently and not as killers. The shooting guys also don't attract as many idiots. I also think is a money thing. You want a gwp and gun license plus gun it alls costs fair few quid and you have to do things right. On the other hand any plonker can pick up a bull cross for 50 quid that will happily pile into any thing because the poor sod hasn't been taught
  19. I remember grandad moving us from suffolk to wales in a reliant robin that was fun poxy thing kept breaking down. Then a sheep jumped out a hedge and nearly wrote it off ?
  20. Surprising what goes on. A year or so ago 3 guys broke into the butchers just a few yards down the road and terrorised an old lady upstairs. They had footage of it and put on fb. Quite chilling to see them casing the joint just yards down the road from my house. Its quite reassuring have the old bull cross in the house as he wouldn't mess about if need arose. Sure between him and the mrs they sort the fookers out save me getting out bed ?
  21. Thank you i just got back from setting a few we shall see
  22. no word of a lie mate i remember the dress she wore and tapping on the car window. But who knows the old mind plays tricks
  23. 50 this year and the old hearing not what it should be. Too many years on the chainsaw and using the old saw bench screaming away all day. I have to answer the phone a lot now and I have to ask ten times there bloody name. By the time I get that sorted I have forgot what they want in the first place because me memory has gone as well
  24. I swear to god I remember coming out of hospital after being born and remember seeing my grandmother who was going in with a broken arm. I can picture it now and she did go in on that day with broken arm. Also remember sitting in a high chair next to my cousin the same age and pinching his milk and getting a bollocking. I can't remember yesterday mind
