tatsblisters 9,466 Posted August 26, 2022 Report Share Posted August 26, 2022 I understand what some lads are saying in never giving up it gets hard to carry on when age is no longer on your side and it doesn't help when you read garbage like this in the local rag where most members of the public will believe the garbage written and working lurcher ownership will be looked on as though you are scum. 2 Quote Link to post

Not as bad as it is now mate I have previous for poaching offences with lurchers and a few incidents I was involved in with keeper's back in the day I don't think ordinary joe bloggs put me in the same category as they would today's folks doing a bit of poaching with dog's 1 Quote Link to post
