unlacedgecko 1,466 Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 we want a hunting song comp and hollering comp like the old hunt shows had! Funny suggestion coming from you... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NEWKID 27,143 Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) I'm sure a small affair could be put together with a bit of effort. I'm sure with all the land owners we would all know, a bit of land could be provided at a small fee. The problem being the set up of a show, it would take a good few days I reckon, so fir some it would be a week off work setting it up. I like the idea though, get this years comp sorted and see what we could sort.. It could be no more than a social gathering to start with and move on from there maybe?

gonetoearth 5,144 Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 To organise and successfully run a dog show, let alone a game fair, or even a "mini" game fair, is a massive undertaking ! Land needs to be provided, funds up front, insurance, permission from local authorities, etc. When we turn up and pay our pound to enter our dog, we haven't seen the work that has gone into the show previously. Far better, I would say, is to talk to the people who already run shows and game fairs and ask if THL can put on some classes and side shows where all money would go to charity, in the name of THL and the show/fair involved; everyone's a winner, the organisation is already in place and we supply the enteries !! . Lol who do you think runs all the shows on the gamefair and shows section on here I know who runs some of the shows/game fairs, and as I say, it's a massive job, why do you think that is funny ? I only made what I thought was a decent suggestion. Your reply shows just how hard it would be to get people to organise a show/game fair from scratch. how does my lol show you anything for f**k sake. Its not hard it just take orginisation and know how How would it be far better to ask Some one who has orginised a show to let thl members to run a show within there show robbing them of entries to their show yeh right. That would work Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fireman 10,884 Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 Ok so we would need people to head up the following ..... Lurchers/Terriers Ferrets Bop Fishing Clay pigeon Air rifle Catapult Stalls/food/drinks Entertainment/camping Anything I have missed ........ Dont forget the little cage & aviary birds .......best section on here in my opinion. Good man Gnasher ,also how about a earth dog tunnel trial thing,did see one that was a wooden tunnel with a perspec side so you could see in with a few obsticles the terriers had to push past,under over through but can't find it on you tube at the mo .

When I ran the EELC show we did terrier racing a couple of years: placing a fox brush at the entrance of some tunnels made of welded rods: the sort they used to have in grain stores under sacks to dry the grain: covered with blankets, no, it was that green stuff they put on veg stalls in markets: some poor sod (me) had to run like feck dragging the lures through the tunnels: two at the same time, side by side, and try to get the lures hidden beneath a board before the terriers got hold of them Good fun though. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't be such a f***ing martyr! You set yourself up for that by taking from my original post that I was demeaning your efforts. By your own admission it'll be more difficult than a 30 man fishing comp so what's your big problem. I was hardly putting you down was I? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Defo think an rspca/hunting prosecution fighting fund would be a good cause, maybe split between that and a childrens charity? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skycat 6,173 Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Jeez! How does every good idea on here have to come to a bloody personal argument: there's some right touchy people on here. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skycat 6,173 Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 You are arguing already this will all end in tears Personally think its a bad idea. If you can get one person to administrate it, organise the people who are going to run each section etc then it can work, but as has already been said, there's a lot more work goes on behind the scenes than a lot of people realise, the least of which is one person who can pull everyone else together and make sure they do their jobs.
