  1. martial arts /boxing lessons instill a sense of pride in yourself and respect for others,any sport is good,but not all kids take to the usual football or rugby options
  2. looks a real keen bitch captain, bet she keeps your casserole dish full is there many lads over there that have this sort of breeding,mate of mine bought one from the irish lady line when he was 10 months old he,s about 27 inch tts,tightest runner i,ve ever seen,i've owned him since he was 23 months ,he's 10 year old now wish i could have him from 2 year old all over again lol
  3. not the easiest of land to film on either,looks a lot like the land I run my dogs on,my ten year old dog put one in the bag on sunday,must be the irish terrier blood in him lol,they say the fens is the ultimate test,but i'm yet to hear of any dog taking 6 out of 6 on the rough land
  4. think that book was the start of a new type of lurcher book showing what the dog game is really all about,by someone that really does do the business
  5. think I will do Bosun11, I see there is a 1996 edition on sale,another good book for anyone interested in coursing is The king of the poachers by j connell published in 1901,no saluki hybrids back in them days,but they still got a few for the pot
  6. colombian blacktail which are RIR x LIGHT SUSSEX,and CORAL NICKS,which are a leghorn hybrid have been laying well for me 16 months non stop including this winter and last,medium sized eggs,breeder told me as long as they get some corn they would retain enough body heat to keep laying in the cold months,lack of daylight has'nt been a problem,bit expensive though 12.50 each
  7. I remember getting about half way through this book before it was due back to the library,that was 20 years ago now,and i'm still keen to read the rest,i've read a lot of other books since then,but from what i can remember that was as good as any,another very good read is the story of frank cullum Both sides of the fence about a poacher turned gamekeeper,not sure if still available,but worth a look,bought mine years ago,probably from tideline books
  8. There was no mention of the hare or how it was caught on the programme,maybe it was just used for ornamental reasons or as a talking point

  10. was watching the gypsy blood documentary the other day and noticed the coursing bitch molly is shown with a very unusually marked hare also the country mischief book features a white hare,must be something in the genes,just out of interest i've seen 3 black foxes over a 12 year period all within about a mile of eachother on land in northumberland
  11. never mind the socks get them rabbits gutted they must be feckin stinking :boogy:looks a handy little dog,good write up mate
  12. The deerhound cross I had was 26 inch tts,if you can get one out of working type deerhounds rather than show bred deerhounds ,should'nt get too tall,also had a first cross bedlington greyhound bitch, ran her as a coursing bitch (pre ban)she was only 23 inch tts very game little bitch,keen on the lamp aswell,but repeated short sprints used to cause her a lot of toe and stopper injuries
  13. sorry sent that post to wrong thread,sent you a post yesterday captain its on third page,I have some dogs related to irish lady,very tight runners ,
