  1. Before the books came out and people started to believe what they read , became amateur geneticists and started to try and re-invent the wheel. Not knocking the modern dogs, but the lurcher x lurcher type did/does catch stuff even if being of pedigree unknown. Not a lurcher man though so just my relatively uneducated opinion.
  2. I made a point of watching the game. This was after spending a very enjoyable Saturday afternoon in the company of one of my nieces and her friends, most of whom are very good footballers. I've never enjoyed watching the professional women's game or more importantly understanding their demands for equality when it comes to wages and recognition in the world of football. There was good give and take banter. But it dawned on me that perhaps I am prejudiced and even misogynistic without realising? So watched the match. It was OK. Then came the penalties. I posted on their WhatsApp group:
  3. Stuck in the memory that it was an unusual cross. Foxhound not EBT, my mistake. Nice looking thing though.
  4. If memory serves correctly Rebecca was EBT x greyhound? Very racy for a 1st cross.
  5. Only owned one whippet and always used to answer the question "do you race him?" with "tried once but he's fast as f**k so never tried again", I had cringe worthy dad joke humour even as a teenager. It amuses me if no one else. On the bucket list, own another whippet. I may even race it.
  6. What happens in Bradford stays in Bradford.
  7. I'm not familiar with that term but assume you're asking did I make love to her? Unfortunately not but later on in the day turned out her far less attractive mate was gagging for it, so not a complete waste of time. And got a nice picture of a lurcher.
  8. I've always thought that Tidline books provided a great service to us common hunting lads. Reprinting some books that at one time would only be available to those who could afford a 1st edition, even if one could be found for sale in days before tintnet.
  9. I borrowed Rebecca from the library many years ago but do not own it. The fact that I do not own the book would suggest that none of the lads from my estate stole it from the library. I believe the lurcher in this postcard is Rebecca. Found it in an art gallery in Bradford and bought on the quiet during a day spent trying to impress a girl who was a LACS supporting art student. Happy days.
  10. I used this to sign into a new site I've found, Romanian Girl Gardeners XXX, worked a treat.
  11. Now that's shame. Proper biting-the-head-off bat shit crazy rocker, but with the talent to create great music. R.I.P.
  12. A sad topic but illustrated with beautiful pictures. Seeing your Gypsy from a pup, developing into an adult and then into dotage, with a loving bairn growing with her throughout the years. Very poignant.
  13. Looks like expensive proper bought in an art shop paper.
  14. I have no idea. Just sharing pictures from old book.
  15. Most breeds of dog come in the merle these days, it's what the customer wants. Just a case of saluki breeders playing catch up after millennia of producing boring colours.
  16. I'm sure this was probably a private joke between members rather than a genuine request but...
  17. Wasn't expecting that!
  18. This is the Lurchers & Running dogs section of the Forum. Not a place for politics, religion or football.
  19. Celtic are in the mix. Have a 2 leg play off and if successful will enter the actual Champion's League, could well meet Newcastle as we are already in it. Still, we were proper shite today.
  20. Gents, I know this is a photography thread not insect ID but also aware that there are some very knowledgeable people on here, anyone know what this is? Crap photo from me as usual but couldn't get any closer as it was top of a wall on a stair. Very chunky and ragged wings so very moth like but I was once told that moths cannot fold their wings at 90 degree to the body, only butterflies can do that. Odd to find a butterfly indoors.
  21. The hare and the moon, love it.
  22. I was going to like that as a nice vignette but you made a point of your hosts' wife having nice tits. No perverts? What was catching your eye and you remember all these years later?
  23. The lemonade bloke sounds bitter.
  24. Even if it was pay to view? Power lies with the military, something that we have lived in blissful ignorance of for many years. The UK has been the most stable nation in the world since General Monck greeted an exiled king on a beach. The rest of the world could only look on in envy throughout the centuries since. Have we really lost it?
  25. I only tuned in today to see if the Newcastle deal for Ekitike had been done, apparently not. f**k him, he will regret turning down Newcastle in a few years time. And the change in voting age thing popped up. My opinion is that this confirms that we have the most incompetent and dysfunctional government since its formation after the head was chopped off Charles l, they are aware of their unpopularity and rather than have a plan to improve things they resort to widening the demographic of voters to those who may be more easily influenced. Who knows, their last desperate act may end in chopping
