OldNog 432 Posted August 24, 2008 Report Share Posted August 24, 2008 As a last resort and out of desparation.....is there anyone local to me (Dorset, Hampsire, Wiltshire) that would be good enough to let me tag along this winter? I dont know anyone else who digs and i dont want to or really know how to do it all on my own. My bitch will be ready to get out and go this season and im starting to feel it might be a wasted season! thanks Quote Link to post
