Found this short video on youtube and thought it might interest some of the older generation, not saying the young ones wont find it interesting also.

Good find that,Its about 10 mins up the road from me and i work in the next village.Theres bound to be some of that family still in the area so i'll ask about.On a side note i've noticed that in that area probably 90% of the local dogs are of working type mainly Russells and Spaniels with a few running dogs thrown in.See very few pet type breeds about...

Be interesting to have an archive section
