Tratante 92 Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 I've returned to the UK after many years away and going through my mountains of junk and found this book Lambourn. Doug Cooper, Plummer, Mike Douglas, Mad Jim the Blacksmith and a few more dog men every year, wish it was still going. Wonder what happened to Geoff Battans? 4 Quote Link to post

billhardy 2,343 Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 I would not worry about getting in to books,we talking lurchers and they bred for hunters trying ta make coin or crust to supplement there family ,Geoff battans a real die hard hunter his I believe still around and fo me represents what lurchersare supposed to be about ,to many got in to looking for fame while those real die hard hunters like of has old stood in the shadows not wanting it any other way . The modern Lurcher man not all but mostly some are not in the same ilk has the real genuine worker ing Lurcher man a man that has no fear and does not let today's laws and society take away that drive and desire to hunt wherecan there's game atb bunnys 3 Quote Link to post

sandymere 8,263 Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 Many a tall tale was told then much as is now. Perhaps back then the tellers were a little more colorful than today's confabulators or maybe that's just rose tinted glasses... 3 Quote Link to post
