We've just raised a litter here out of my Patxspringer bitch, put my wife's old whippetxrussell dog over her and she had 8 pups. All were spoken for by friends straight away but we kept two back. I'm really looking forward to bringing them on over the summer

Don’t take this the wrong way mate, but sit down and read through your post. The world has enough folk already breeding and peddling dogs.

Enjoying the sun

It's bad over here lads and lassies, nothings safe

It worked, but the lamb was way over cooked for my liking. I’m inconsolable with a bit of overcooked meat, much to my wife’s amusement ?.....so the answer is a bigger joint or much less time underground. The sweet potato & onion were nice & smokey, but they weren’t wrapped. Strangely enough a couple of potato’s were under done after 8 hours! So things weren’t particularly even down there & I forgot to unwrap the red pepper with all the excitement ? Would I do it again? Yes.....with some good company round for a bit of theatre & fun.....

The day started off good with a breakfast of champions avocado on a bed of aromatic salad with a nice poached egg. Then this afternoon a little BBQ for me and the wife waiting for the big one tomorrow I’ve got a nice bit of brisket covered in a home made rub waiting to go in my smoker. Loving the good weather while it lasts.

well im not prepared to take much more of this isolation, im sat here and its like a babys arm, ive just stuck mi head out the front bedroom window, and owd Gladys is waving to me, ok shes got her teeth in soak and wearing her willies, eh couldn't give a monkies

Old girl catching some rays...

I owned a Beddy/whippet bitch,about21",a few decades ago now.I paid about £20 for it at 14 months of age and the lad was sick of it because it chased hard and would not strike.I spent a few months getting used to the bitch,building up its confidence with a few drops and getting it out with the ferrets and run after run after run.Eventually the dogs feet and brains came together and it had a very useful first season on the rabbits and picked up a bit of feather.The bitch was fleet footed,quick to learn and in its second season was becoming a decent mutt around the warrens with the ferrets and w

Ok chimichanga prepped, pulled pork, pulled chicken with grated cheddar and motsarella cheese with a block of cheddar cheese on top ( use whatever cheeses you like ) it’s important to fold them without leaving gaps because during the frying process you want to heat and melt the cheese and crisp the outside up without to much fat getting inside, part three to follow unless they are so nice I get carried away and eat them before I get a picture

Dinner's in the oven.....

We heard you the first time...

Here’s the smoker waiting for a 7 hour cook up tomorrow. Nice Nice bit of Brisket I will get at least 3 cooks out of this. Here’s a piece covered in my home made rub ready for an early start in the smoker in the morning. The Bark on this will be amazing can’t wait I will put up some pics when it’s done.

Brain ,9 years old. Miserable as usual.

Kanny mate I never put an egg in boiling water I use an old fashioned egg poacher the plastic egg holders I heavily grease with butter then drop my eggs in and then I put the water in the bottom not too much as you don’t want it to boil over onto the eggs then I gently simmer not to fast as they go hard and then they have to pass my wobble test a little shake and I know they are ready then they just fall out as you see them in the pics, my sons have been trying to beat me at making them like this for years but there dad still kicks there arses lol...

Skipped the Bbq just loaded a few jackets with cottage cheese mackerel salad and boiled eggs. With home grown chocolate Carolina reapers to liven it up a bit it’s where the fun began ?

This one came from a lake/ reservoir called squabmore down near buddleih salterton, was great place not big fish but real beautys we got some strange looks from people explaining that all the trout had been lost and we were wasting our time?

nice pups cash and I like the old dog, my first bitch was beddy lurcher cross pure saluki ( 1969 ) great bitch, her father ( flash ) went to several lurchers with deerhound in them, they made some very good dogs, what is often not realised is most of those early saluki blooded coursing dogs were bred from ordinary lurchers, and as consequence several coat types crop up, old flash also went to greyhounds and produced some good first crosses, he went to one pure bitch, bred from Iraqi imported grand parents.

I think the term psycho means different things to different people....to most of us its a person you avoid at any cost.....but make no mistake in certain communities and areas of life its almost a term of endearment,how many little street kids will say " dont f**k with him he,s a psycho ".....some people even named their dogs Psycho for crying out loud !! Like most things terms and phrases get twisted to the point where the true meaning is lost......i spent a bit of time as a youngster around a chap with genuine psychotic tendencies and believe me it was no fun at all.

Needs burying under the garden path?

This is typical thl again..........psychopaths to dairy cows in the blink of an eye ?

Massive respect to you mate. I have sone friends who do it and I know hard but rewarding they say it is. I'm very fortunate too to be in secure employment in these weird times. Although my gaffer has just bough £70k worth of brand spanking telehandler for me to use; never been so nervous moving sheep!! It's even got a radio! Listening to the singer everyone likes to dunk in their brew.... Lionel Richtea!! ? Stay safe all my mates!

Looking forward to seeing the end result

Original leney stocking from 1957 just over 30lbs in weight, took 2 years before I got the bite from this one. Over 60 years old at time of capture Proper carp and remains my best fish to date.

Trust me to come to the party late but l knew l had a picture of Ravioli/ Clarissa somewhere but have only just found it. She looks pretty healthy in the Zoo l recall from reading other articles her weight settled at 8-10lb under the record. Probably nothing to do with stress more likely she and the other fish on the tank were on a controlled diet balenced between keeping them healthy and not fouling the water to keep it clear. Also l expect the water in the tank was aerated and therefore moving so she would have been more active and used more energy than in

My Sprocker only a year old and will smash through any cover stay close by works to the whistle and hand signals I am over the moon with her for a first gun dog

The vast majority of the post on this thread have been either aggressive or pretty morbidly depressing. I've been out to Tesco doing the shopping and out on the land , road and footpaths and yes there are more people out walking, a lot that I have never seen but but everyone has been thoughtful about distance even holding back at styles and gates and mind fully putting up a hand of hello from people that I don't know. At the supermarket there was no agro and it was like a conga conveyor belt of people. The only stupid thing that I have seen is the bloke taking his young son to see his gr

Ha ha, good to have laugh lads with all this virus thing we got, hope your all coping with this lock down. Regards Buck, the big twat nearly got flattened by motor the other day, I called him he seen a cat or somthing, he deff me out. He came back few mins latter, I think being honest it was his size, saved him hit by the car, the driver slowed down to pass him, thi k if smaller type dog, he may not of seen him, and hit the dog well what came in my mind, I felt like giving him the 11s but just grabbed twat put him in me motor. Regards dancing Keith, I fooked right now, the wife had in

Seems to be a throw of the dice on which way it takes you.

Right and left .....well pleased

Well chimichanga complete nice enough but found it a bit greasy due to the deep frying and the cheese juice from within, won’t right it off but would do it next time under the grill or a flat iron as your only really cooking it to melt the cheese inside

Yeah still got it mate ?

Youd be surprised at what the electric bikes can do.The acceleration on them things is phenomenal

When I’m working around my mates farm I often use the reach truck for loading the trailer, my mates old fella has always had manitou’s and I’m sure he buys them just so when I’m using it he can say “ I’ve been told you like a man a too” before walking off laughing to himself ?

So you got dry bummed by Ronnie Kray?

????????? Ive just nearly yakked up over my croissant ! Even the sight of one of them things gives me the f****n horrors.....your not right you !

Going away from push bikes but Nice if you have a spare 10k burning a hole in your pocket .

Did you really need an official test? He's the angel of death ffs!

You telling me I've had physco stay in my house!! When you coming back mate, I've got some Corona based murders required...lol

A nice morning. Cheers Arry

My keeping hasn’t been affected thank goodness and all the guns are paying their subs and the poults are ordered. My wife and I foster children , we’ve been doing it for 5 or six years now . It takes about a year from when you first apply to getting approved, so it’s not going to help immediately but since we started we have never had to worry about money. We didn’t get into it for financial consideration but more because my wife loves kids , but I’ve been shocked at the amount of money councils pay you . If you have one child under say 5 it’s nearly £1,400 a month a sibling group of 2 double

now you just listen to me raymondo, I happen to be your typical English gent, and if that good lady wife of yours any assistance, of any description, then im your man, im currently tending an old dear up the street, Gladys, she can vouch for me

My little blue whippet stag put a 6ft roo on the ground and had it by the throat after it attacked me when ferreting,she got stitches from that and it nearly grabbed me dragging her off it.I had a mate gutted and killed by a roo after he shot it and walked up to it.Just for the record , fair dinkum and cobber were last used here in the 1950's "ya pommy b*****ds" ?.

Well I’ve rapped in, I told them they are taking the piss and I’m not willing to work for less than 300 quid a week, the gaffer said I would have to give written notice and have to work 4 weeks, I was about to tell him to get f*cked when my missus rang and said she would do my notice for me, it’s a lot better than if it had come out of my mouth, after my boss passed it on to the director he came to see me, he said he completely understands why I’m going and he will accept my resignation, I was just about to say “I wasn’t asking for your f*cking permission you tw*t” when he said to me there wou
