Smoking oh no Brian wouldn't like that specially if u were sporting earnings and tattoo 

Just as well I had tattoos and earings then otherwise he might have tried grooming me like all them other poor innocent young lads.Old Mick Douglas thought he was a complete bullshitter too.

The terrier's he brought to Rotherham years ago were the real deal as digging dogs as a good mate of mine had them off him though they were nothing like the terrier's he created later on .

He talked some shite but I don't think the plummer was intended to be an all out digging dog anyway so judging them on their ability as digging dogs is daft

Why he put an American show bred beagle into the mix is baffling to me and although I love his books the bloke was clearly mad as a hatter
