Big bald beautiful 1,231 Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Went to watch whippets coursing about 10 yrs ago, the first 2 runs and the whippets caught there hares. only got one more run after that, it was a bloody long drive but a grand day out and different to my usual greyhound coursing Quote Link to post
