I wouldn't know about that in a scientific way, though I would say it would be far to soon (for how many years have we had urban foxes, my guess would be around 40, in numbers) to change these animals phisically but from the 'old' days of hunting town foxes for years, most seemed of a smaller type, though the odd big 'un did turn up. I belive diet and smaller territorys would play a part, foxes wouldn't have such a vast area to roam, then when in population, maybe not the best dog fox specimens would get to breed, which could produce smaller, weedier offspring?

Would that be for the metal work and collars ? Depends on your age I suppose, Selwyn...... I probably would!! SS tells me his metal comes from the same supplyers for B&F (at least for the brass), put that to them nylon webbing collars he makes and your gonna get a few years out of 'em. Certainly gonna last at least as long as any leather collar couplings on the market today.

Like I said in my experience they dont take long to adapt to a lamp or your call...In the past I've had country ones come in just as quick as these "urban" ones. At what point do they cease to be urban? Most of the estates round here border countryside so I get confused up here they squeak in , but we went down south last year , as i lived there for a bit and when i moved back up here we had a due down , and the foxes there roamed the streets ect , dont think have ever seen a rabbit in there life , therfore when we tried to squeak them , was pointless , they just wasnt intrested ,

A great pic Dox , one of my fav little birds. A pair nested in the old brick shithouse in the garden next door this year, been a pleasure watching the comings, goings and fledging.

First I heard of the cross was back in the early 's when a lad from Liverpool bred a litter from a real hard bitten terrier dog to a well bred field spaniel bitch. Back then everyone thought him nuts when he announced that he was going to keep them all an run 'em like a mini pack of hounds. His tallies of daytime foxes sored and lads started queing up to have a day out with them. He has kept the line going since and tried cockers and beagle in the mix, though its mostley the same as the originals. On the occasion when he does breed, his pups fly out and not just around his area. He has to

Hope this comes out as I have a virus in the pc affecting my pictures This is my Mrs 'first' tattoo. She wanted a tattoo of lillies and could not find anything that suited in the studio or on websites so she improvised, bought a bunch, photographed them took them in the shop and the tattoo artist did the rest. Still needs a little white added to highlight.

Pretty much spot on that fella, know lots of Chinks and they all smile when the Chinese food for the English is mentioned. Did you ever get to the famous Dim Sum Restaurant in NY Bosun (Carp in the entrance), the best outside of China. May have mate, if it was a scruffy gaff in China town (and the carp rings a bell), went there for a huge Dim Sum, feckin awsome! Though it was 18 years since and my mate over there hits a few for different types of food, i.e. best Dim Sum, fish etc.

Bosun11 replied to Strong Stuff's topic in General Talk
i just been outbid ay £180.................do you think i should go higher?? £180 was more than i thought it would make anyway!!!! don't suppose anyone knows what their worth?? cheers sean One went last week for £200, i'm sure the price of the first editions will only rise. Get it bought, read it then put it back on ebay.......you'll have read it and it'll cost you nothing.... Dead right Nikey, only first editions are/will be worth holding on to and not exactly the best read either!! -
Really off Chinese food these days, same old catering for the western palet..... shite! Every time I end up in a decent resturant i'm looking at the chinese eating and wondering why what their having is not on the feckin menu that i've got! Then when I ask about it, they get all a bit broken english to feck me off.... Why can't they serve up the same gear for both parties, we have been eating 'our version' of chinese food since the 50's and most of them wouldn't touch the stuff with a shitty chop stick, bet they wonder why buisiness ain't so good, big chinese supermarkets selling real chin
