Did you ever meet Russ who used to own it mate, have you seen the documentary on it?

Seen that clip of him in “ the gypsy and the poacher” no ferret and sticks a twig up an hole and says that’s rabbit fur so starts to dig and says it’s hard going after one shovel full, the dog has a look that says “what the f**k am I doing here”, tells me all I need to know.

Nice lads for sure moocher, only spoke to em a couple o times, bet they’d provide an entertaining evening in the pub, the dogs will have improved no end since he got with Dave Sleight and his connections in racing greyhounds, that said I still wouldn’t want one, atb

He was a character mate, used to knock about with his son who's on the documentary and we used to have some good crack down there. 

He died about 5 year ago now.
