poem in honour of the working terrier.

[Guest whitser]

there's no feeling better than a terrier that makes it.

there's no feeling worse than a terrier that fakes it.

all men talk of great ocks they've had,

none ever mention the currs and the bad.

a really good ock comes along one in ten.

so there's nine quitters out there you dont want again.

 

i've had my share of the ones that cant hack it,

wont stay on a fox but will murder rabbit.

because of these terriers, the spoofers and fakes,

we should be gratefull make no mistake.

if it wasn't for them and all the heart ache they serve.

we wouldn't give the good ones they respect they deserve.

 

treat your true workers like gods,they'll always give all.

happily die to answer your call.

the memory of some will come and will pass,

of truly good workers their memory will last.

if i live til im eighty i'll count myself blessed,

if i've but a handfull of ocks that passed the real test.

 

look after your workers.

I have seen it all now, first he was ran out of Grange Abby, now making a show of us decent Irish hunters, jigsaw this guy is wired to the moon if ya know what I mean; now he is shacked up in some fields in north county Dublin with a family of hedgehogs.

 

Whisters will ya stop making a c**t of yourself.

 

God bless the poor lad.

[jigsaw 11,899]

IL you have included yourself in the'' decent irish hunters'' catogory?read through this agai,it doesnt read ''INDECENT'',so im afraid thats you out of the gang, Nice to see your still kicking above ground,looking forward to meeting up at a few shows this year,i heard from macker you are hunting the elusive red rossette for the rest of the year with those two scrawny lurchers you have,I reckon you'll get something for em all right out of sympathy,probably a bullet. GOD I CRACK MYSELF UP.Macker said he loves hunting with ye as ye only go after dark and no one gets to see them 2 curs ye have.

[Irish Lurcher 1,013]

JS once you hail from Dublin one can include oneself in whatever one chooses, thats the privilege of living in the capital.

 

But it does one good to lower oneself every now and then, so with that in mind, yes I may allow you to be in my presence at some stage during the show season, but please do lower ones tone when speaking as it may offend others.

 

I am sure you are of good charter, despite all the rumors.

[jigsaw 11,899]

Cant wait sire,I'll keep my head bowed and my ass against the wall as I too have heard the roumours about you,As for lowering oneself.....Im afraid you really cant get much lower,being from the bottom of the proverbial barrel,that of course being DUBLIN.Home of the slight of hand and lack of wit and intelligence.It will be an honour to be in the prescence of a fully qualified SCOUNDREL.

[macker 5]

i think it more than whitser loosing the plot.

macker

[Irish Lurcher 1,013]

Agree 100% macker, poor whister is loosing the plot altogether, sure it happens to te worse of us.
