I popped out to the butchers this morning for a nice bit of Topside for tomorrows dinner - while I was there, I asked if they had any pig skin ( I've been fancying homemade crackling for days). It turns out that they don't do anything with it so, it all gets binned but, because I was shopping, they cut me some off and, didn't even charge me for it He asked 'Do you want the fat taken off?' .......... Hell no - that's the best bit. So, I got it home, cut it up and, deep fried it in olive oil - it was crispy on the outside and, soft and warm in the midd

I've had two many years ago, 30+ years ago ! Jesus that makes me feel old. They were both wreckless to say the least, one I only had a hand full of digs over before I had to PTS, the other I parted company with because it was heading in the same direction. I was to young and stupid to own a dog of that nature, my experience didn't match the dogs drive and and nature. If I was honest, even now I wouldn't have a dog like that given to me, with all the experience I've had I couldn't watch a dog self destruct like those two did.

Just a small boundary day to start with, teaching them to fly, 39 shot, couple of pigeons and the kids had a go at the squirrels, had my top new beater with me, my mates little lad Hugo, he never left my side all day, this is what I love about these shoot days, free range kids that enjoy been out in the fresh air

Out stalking this afternoon and was rewarded with the sighting of a hoopoe . First time I’ve seen this bird in Englabd . Apologies for poor pic on phone

Took dear old Dusty for her last walk today...? I was gifted this good-hearted pup, from a guy that in reality, I hardly knew. I traveled from my home in Hampshire to a Welsh Valley and collected her... She was a super friendly pup and fitted into our lifestyle, no problem. She served me well, for nine long years, we had some good times, caught vanloads of game and enjoyed plenty of laughs,... I am sad to say goodbye ... Alas, the Big C has no mercy and seems to enjoy inflicting horrendous pain.? I feel privileged to deny this heartless monster it's perverse en

Me, my brother and the old man have been itching to get on some new permission we've managed to grab. We've got a young brindle deer hound, greyhound x collie grey hound who was yet to catch. And our bull grey hound x collie grey hound bitch. After seeing the old bitch catch on her first run that fired up the young dog and he broke his duck. 2 in 2 runs and retrieved straight back. Cracking little walk out and to say the old man was chuffed is an understatement.

A few weeks difference in age from Roxie as a pup to her own pup on the same road with the same cheeky handler

COULD you said,but it might not mate,don’t focus on the negatives,enjoy Christmas,spoil your wife and the grand children,live in the present over the festive period,hope you and the family have a great Christmas,don’t worry.

ive done bit of beating in my time, prob only me at that time kept/worked lurchers , and the other beaters were either had gundogs them selves or there were riflemen . now any lamping was always given to the riflemen 1st, gundog blokes, 2nd and me 3rd , now this is me doing 4-5 seasons on the bounce, it never changed with the keeper and it was very similar that other shoots i did beating at not just this keeper .The bottom line is this lurchers are not liked on any ground, yes you get the odd keeper give you the odd night lamping, but like above most stuff been shot to fook by then, it been

my big dog pup is matureing very nicely and now the rain has come time to start giveing him some stick carnt wait to see how he goses sunday

I got lucky today with these two though there seems to be loads about Goldcrest by Martin Billard, on Flickr Firecrest by Martin Billard, on Flickr

My mate works in one, £15 an hour plus tips.......boom.

I was with the mrs on holiday once and we were walking along the cliffs and some runners came along and I said look at the daft fookers killing them selves but really I was jealous as I hung off the gate with me 10 chins and more spare tyres than dunlop. So i started running well crawling. Couldn't run for 3 minutes solid to start but two years later ran 50 miles. Ran for few years cycled to work for a couple and now on weights coming upto 50. Torn a groin muscle which is hold me back called a sport hernia which is a pain. Tell you what a healthy diet fooks the old gut lol. I used to be able

Rub your phone on some old bacon rind then bury that at midnight behind a yew tree

Ooth and sweeping The chicken ranch was having the odd bird lying around with its head missing so I strolled up there to take a look. I scanned as I went and then out of nowhere there it was, 30yds the other side of the wire (chicken side) watching me stroll by! In a smooth and fluent manner I brought the rifle to bare without stopping. No cold winter nights for that vixen! U.

...means alot to me but it helps if I get out first ? A quick scuttle about at first light and I was shooting at crows and Jackie's. Missed most! Then Jess worked a squirrel and between us got it to pose for a picture. On the way home two pheasants left a hedge bottom. The first was a not so good opportunity but the second was so I shot. It was a going away shot at 50yds! I guess full choke is handy sometimes. The gun was not ejecting to well and on inspection I had surface rust in the chamber! Shame on me! When I got home I fitted a mop and wire

Having to travel for rabbits but dont mind if it gets the dogs working

Brian plummer was right.Just a load of bloody thugs.

looks like a load of foreskins ,,lol...straight from the circumcision dept of the jewish hospital

That last picture looks like a cross section of one of your arteries. Fcukin heart attack on a plate.

, you should try chicken hearts if you like a bit of cheap ofal , they are absolutely lovely and cost a couple of penny,s for a kilo, younger people don't see a link between meat and animals just things in cling film or packets are food, not skin, tongues and internal organs, everything tastes better when it's free or cheap and you make it yourself, enjoy your pork scratching,s???

?

I always peg mine so they can't be pushed by the mole... If it can't be pushed the mole will be caught and no need to drag the trap away..it should be dead.

That's another option but in my mind you really don't know what your kenneling then as your dogs are not being tested. People can say what they like and it doesn't bother me who they are but if your digging Quarry and pts all the time then you dont know what you have. I have seen so called good seasoned terriers from over the water come away with their tail between their legs once entered on quarry that knows the score soon sorts the men from the boys so to speak.

Had 2 days with keepers , terriers only, some very hard going , rough ground etc ,couple of tough foxes accounted for !! Ended up with 4 .head keeper was over moon , gave my youngest son full permission to fish his own private pond in summer ,

A planned afternoon outing on the bucks with a pal was added to after a call from Rabid , who was on his way back home after an unsuccessful outing earlier in the day with a local stalker . Realising he would have time to get to me before we left I invited him out for an afternoon session. Forty five minutes later he was here and another forty five minutes later after coffee we met my pal over the ground . Cunning plan agreed we set of , my mate worked the top ground to get into a seat we’re we have been fairly consistent most of the early part of the season and we would have a look on t

? only in America ?

Gorse patches are nick named Jesus Christ bushes up here , cause whenever anyone going through them hunting that’s all you hear them shout !!??

I have never put any man in an awkward place and also would not ask any man to enter a terrier where I wouldn't enter one of my own.I have also seen that sort of shit done only for the smerk to be wiped from their mugs.what I meant was I've had lads here blowing smoke up their dogs arses saying their this that and the other only to be made look like fools in relatively easy places.foxdropper as you we'll know their is a big difference in green grass and grass that's been grazed.

You have very nicely manacured nails ......

Seen a healthy 1 shag a mixi 1 and not feel anyway about it

Pretty much steve steak an egss twice a day, id eat steak an eggs in a 6 hr window, between 12 an 6 in the day an fasted the rest. Beleive me it was hard at start because i loved my carbs, especially a load of cream buns in the morning lol But once i passed this i didnt feel hungry an could go no problem, i was working out in fasted state in( morning) an the pump was unbelevable mate. Once the carb cravings had gone it was great plenty of energy wile building muscle, i could go an on its all scientific stuff. Its not for everyone, but if you want to loose weight fast, its a

If you cut out the carbs alltogether your body goes into a state of ketosis, in this state you will experience low energy, but if you keep going an get past this you body will adjust an you should be flying then. Remember this is used to lose weight fast an effeciently, once your bodies in ketosis its using up the fat storage as fuel cause less carbs. If you mix it up with a little carbs like vegtables this will take the edge of ketosis mate.

its a very intresting subject francie.....its the way most average humans should look to loose weight....those complex carbs and sugars should be the first thing out of a diet for your average human ..or at least cut them right back....but of course it still comes down to a simple formular of calories in against calories out.... however for most athaleats I think some complex carbs...some fiberouse carbs and some sugars...mainly fructose are vital....but that doesn't mean you cant keep them low if nessasery .......interestingly though..i think its the brain that only functions on carbs...

?

Ketogenic its called, if you stop eating carbs your body will switch an burn your fat for energy, real interesting check it out.

Saturated fat? High Protein? Moderate Low carb/none? Intermitent fasting? An some discipline, an the fat will literally fall of you, but still build muscle. Steak an eggs twice a day, oohhh me mouts watering. Check out vince gironda, natural bodybuilder, taught arnold reeves etc

Your right fair play to him

Nah, it's a fracking seminar

If I have mate it's the only thing I get right!!

Some of us are banned from carrying penknives never mind guns.

One of the issues the guild raised with the Putange trap was it didn’t allow for seasonal/size variation of moles quite the opposite the Putange is the only trap that can be set to trigger at variable sizes You secure the trigger to stop it being lost they also took issue with that fact you have to stake the trap to stop it being dragged away not so it’s staked so the mole can push against the trigger and not push the trap away from itself
