The more I get to know people, the more I like my dogs ✌

Had a hour to kill yesterday

Milking in the 1970's all done by hand, no fancy milk parlours. You couldn't beat that milk, you'd drink it all day

Great pics and thread. this is a photo of my Granduncle, in O'Connell Street Dublin, must have been around the 1920's shortly after we got our independence. Nelson's Pillar behind, which is no longer there after being blown up in the 1960's

Your lucky to have 5 good close friends in this world mate , just last week I was let down by two badly , enough to never have anything for to do with them again. onr of them is my last true mate from home , the other I’ve stood beside for nearly 30 years . ill never speak to either again. My cousin burned me with the dogs a long time ago and I’ve never spoken to him properly since. c**ts mate, the world is sadly full of them

Went out this morning before the rain and managed to get these 2 ferrals and 4 doves, i got 2- 55+ mtr long shots on collards and the pellets seemed to hit harder than the close shots.

I posted a photo of my gran when she was young on page 2 heres another of her with her family. The youngest little boy is the boy sat in a chair in the dress in an earlier post. Cheers Arry

I don’t know how relevant it is to your situation pal , but I was told once early on in my vocation that “it’s better to be respected than liked “ food for thought

Rebel, No only Brian , Apache, i think there could be one out next year "Patterdales by Pickaxe"

Ain’t it funny when the shit hits the fan the people you think will be there disappear and then there are people who rise to the top.. no details, but it shows the real good people around you every time...

The lurchers relaxing after the milf run The terrier however never switches off and knows next door cat there somewhere

Everyday , as I walk into work , there is a little wall piece , with a list of battles on it. Normandy, Arnhem, Sicily, Egypt ,Iraq , Afghanistan, but my eyes are always drawn to one line on it . “Longden, 11th June 82, 23 dead” The words , “follow me lads , I’m f***ing bulletproof “ are written into airborne folklore

My Mother is the little girl in the middle. My Granddad was on Minesweepers. The lad my uncle was my hero in the Devon and Dorset's as a company sergeant major. Cheers Arry

You can never tell with people ,I used to go to a local leisure centre and used to chat and have a cuppa with a fella who worked there ,seemed a good lad did big Connor ,always had a laugh and joke ,lost touch for a few years and the next time I saw him he has changed his name to Pat and is killing every kunt on coronation st .you just never know .

My teenage daughters are going through the “why do people keep being f***ing weird” stage with their mates......but I tell them, I have lived nearly 47 years on this planet and can count my proper friends on one hand. Its never too late, 2 of them I met off this site!! The others have been pals since we was young men. I have been in some genuinely dicey situations where the odds looked bad with one or two of them and they never wavered. One I never spoke too for 3 years while he was married because I told him his Mrs was a shitcunt and he was off his canister to marry her b

I've got and work beddies my self there no out and put digging dogs no matter what people say mine are as kean and game as mainly used for rats and cover work for foxes . Occasionally a dig but they are no means a digging dog as such and at the end of the day they aren't built right for proper earth work never was there a leggy terrier type for a allround job dog . Anyone who is trying to breed them just for digging is on drugs . There a. Better suited breeds out there . At the end of the day mine have good noses as keane as allround terrier but there coats are soft and and aren't built rig

As you get older you don’t lose your mates you just find the real ones

Start with a gun like that, the right pellet and a quality scope and put the practice in, with a light, gentle hold and you'll soon see your groups tighten to a single hole! Shooting a spring rifle means you have to shoot correctly to shoot one well. Begin with a low, prone position on the grass.Finesseful, gentle hold with your controlling hand gently around the "wrist" or grip of the stock. Just a nice, light touch on the trigger, slowly, gently squeezing your finger back over first stage, till you feel that bit of resistance at the biting point and squeeze through, releasing the shot with

There's a saying eaten meat is soon forgot it's true i have been in positions were i needed help so-called mates disappeared yet when things are good they can't do enough for you I don't give second chances anymore socks and bell of here did me a good turn when I needed it that won't be forgotten and they asked for nothing in return genuine lads but if those lads ever need my help its there no questions shame some don't have any loyalty to there mates

I like cash.... it feels real

The little girl in the photo of the house is my great grand mother seen here with my father. Her accent was so broad my mother could not understand a single word she said apparently. Cheers Arry

Any good black dogs that I work over season after season and there offspring all started and continue to be tightly bred nuttall stuff.. yes a few are like a sausage roll with a wee bully head . but 60 percent would come 14 15 inch well made terriers...and the wee small barrel terriers are as handy as there taller kin the dog in the pic is sausage roll type but a wee tank.

It’s the World Cup Final, and a man makes his way to his seat right next to the pitch. He sits down, noticing that the seat next to him is empty. He leans over and asks his neighbour if someone will be sitting there. ‘No,’ says the neighbour. ‘The seat is empty.’ ‘This is incredible,’ said the man. ‘Who in their right mind would have a seat like this for the Final and not use it?’ The neighbour says, ‘Well actually the seat belongs to me. I was supposed to come with my wife, but she passed away. This is the first World Cup Final we haven’t been to together since we got married.’ ‘Oh, I’m so so

Now and again mate, you are inclined to make some very astute posts and this is one of them. We got ships out the scrap yard, the lads had shit kit, no helicopters which is why that had to walk across that poxy island and we just went down there and did it.....we even managed to fit in a bayonet charge !!........writing stuff like that is an echo of a country I feel is long gone and it makes me very sad. Proper lads, proper nation.

I didn't really watch it either found it silly not my type of humour. But what I find funny others won't. Mrs brown's boys I find total shit too. But it has a huge fan base. I like still game the early seasons were comedy gold latest ones are ok but not a patch on the others

I never did get father ted ,about as funny as piles

Your never going to guess who the little guy in the cowboy outfit is. Totnes Carnival. Cheers Arry

Haven't seen him about since Everton sold him to man Utd .

George has used Margaret’s dogs in the past, I’ve used a gutchcommon dog on one of my rillington bred dogs,There were only 2 dog pups which went to lads I know locally,one showed little interest in hunting the other showed more interest but wasn’t as keen as my Rillington bred dogs,he had a decent coat & was a nice workmanlike shape,he’s the dog on the vic Granger prints you could buy 15-20 years ago.george didn’t go down the outcross route just for the sake of an outcross, he ran out of suitable dogs to breed from.the only thing you loose with a well thought out outcross is your KC papers

Oh bloody hell Si, what a dork, cheers mate. Phil

the old saying mate a friend in need is a fkn nuicence!!

They ain’t friends mate, they are “feeders” who need to be sucking the life out of someone constantly.......when you can’t peovide they move on to whoever can.

My father and me

I don't know what's worse, friends who let you down or friends that make frendship demands constantly

On the flip side of people letting you down you often find help and loyalty from the most unexpected people . socks has also done me a good favour for which I am grateful ,he must be a decent fella ,terrible table manners ,but decent fella .

Greg64 managed to get the uncropped picture up. Cheers Arry

Couple from this morning

Cheers for the offers lads, I’ve met some real decent lads on here who I consider mates.. nothing anyone can do though, I try to invest into people, and consider myself pretty straight... unfortunately I believe I’m going to be treated the same, but every so often it bites you on the ass!

As I said to someone the other day who said to me "you can trust me". "I only trust two people in this world" "One of them is me and the other isn't you"! Lol

When there's growing moves to take down statues of Churchill and Nelson, and Greenwich council removes a memorial to Lee Rigby, your average Joe Public doesn't stand a chance, whatever he may have done to deserve the recognition ! F***ing ar5eholes, the lot of them !

I've put this on before. I think it's my gt gt gt grandfather, I may be wrong about the amount of gts

I've been busy with rigging up a few trammel nets,, the good weather has been a bonus for a change up this end..

Little project I have been working on a pair of stoats chasing down a rabbit wrapped bodys and carved heads cheers R

Thought ide hunted just about the whole shabang these islands hold what's a fecking grilf Peter atb bill

What's happened mate and why didn't you give me a ring if you were in the shit with something .......

Two bitch pups gifted up out of a bitch I gave a mate. One staying here and one going up the country
