dev 226 Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 nearly had the dig of our lives today, we entered my russell,sting, into a huge earth,he soon settled and we got a mark of 4.5,YES!!!4.5 on the box,we waited for about a half started to dig,we sank a huge pit 10ft long by 7 ft wide,we got down adout 8 ft or so and then the bank caved in,we started to clear it out but the numbers on box started to move,shit!! ended up we dug the dog with 3 quarry bottled up, down the bank about 3ft,good result but would love to have finished the big dig. we moved on and dug my mates dog rocky in a little forest,very hard dog,the ground was bumping as soon as he found his quarry,quick dig and another 3 dug out of the 1 pot,great days sport Quote Link to post

Squirrel_Basher 17,100 Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Looking at that slide sends a shiver down my back .I was in a similar hole in a sand banking once and head first in with a torch ,when the whole fecking top came in on me .Panic .I remember not being able to move at all and thought to myself 'well this is it then '.The extent of the slide was not as bad as i thought and my mate dug a bit and hauled me out .Scary .We got to the dog and dead fox soon after .
