Nothing has changed since the ban.... if your discreet and not stupid enough to film what you are doing...then you get to craic on...it's the fame seekers that can't use their heads ,just can't grasp the concept of flying under the radar ?

Thus is exactly what I was getting at with the thread I started about this. Those shit house Liberal scum social services ignored all the warnings because they were lezzers , there is no other excuse.

And still not one decent picture of a big cat!! ?

the interwed was our worsed enemy along with mobile phones , and the bellends posting pictures for the world to see .common sence is in very short supply!!!

I know, but the ban was never about animal welfare, it was the Labour Party wanting, in their words, "to give Tory toffs in red coats a bloody nose" And in the draughting of the law, instead of saying foxes and foxhounds, it was extended as a catchall to include all dogs and all mammals, with the exception of rats and rabbits. Purely class hatred, nothing to do with animal welfare. Cheers.

Absolutely lunacy, so why is it OK to catch a hare with a hawk or eagle but not a dog? They just make shit up as they go along.

Maybe we have been speaking at cross purposes here. I don’t disagree with that. I’ve simply been pointing out why coursing has found itself the enemy of the rest of the countryside and this sort of anti coursing movement has risen. For over a decade I was involved with a DIY syndicate shoot in coursing country. Out that way the type of shoots that dominate are little piss pot syndicates because the land is shit, put simply. Yeah there’s commercial stuff but it’s not the mainstay. We were on 1700 acres and rent was like 3.5k. There was a well known fella from up the A1 that was allowed to

To some one like me at my age it seems a life time away the days when the places I worked nobody gave a shit if I was poaching venison or game birds and could always find buyers at the pit or on the building site I still think that social media has had a big impact on how ordinary joe public view lad's coursing a few hares.

Word's fail me i will never be able to get my head around murderous scum like this and i can honestly say i would gladly put a gun to their head and pull the trigger.

f**k Da Ban…..I’m heading out later to sheepchasers place.

These Thunderboxes ain't half cold?

Why not start attending the tracks on training days get your face known but word of warning some non ped folk frown upon using them for hunting others sometimes use them for working quite often theres non peds that havent made the grade for racing that need rehoming too

Had plenty rats with kc whippets from work race coursing n show an non ped. In the right hands some can more than take plenty in few hrs best number from a chicken shed pulled out on skis leaving the shit 25 yrds from any buildings n ditches was over 300 in a few hr none got away 4 whippets 3 terriers worked together , worked them with ferrets plenty other times out by the feeders in game cover great days , like any other breeds on rats some can be real good at the game it helps if they see plenty to make the call tho , the thing with getting a pup from racing stock ped or non ped is they

Did anyone actually expect any thing totally different to happen ?? Honestly

I cant say anything about final prices but the other two guys involved have been told from day one, we ain't doing this and taking the piss on the price. Money is not the motivation behind this for me. ?

I've never said I'm making a new ferret finder, those that I've spoken to have always been told "we" There's 3 of us in this project and always has been from day one. Cloning a Mk1 locator isn't difficult and if that's what I wanted then it could of been done a long time ago. Why copy something like that and not try and improve on it? Its not something I could do with my skill set. The engineer who's the brains behind this project designs stuff like this for a living, unfortunately since Covid hit he has had some serious family issues,,, I won't go into details as its not my place to sa

Death. Penalty.

I remember it well. Peter Easterby and another man were charged with allowing their land to be used for illegal hare coursing. They pleaded not guilty but the judge found them guilty, but gave them absolute discharges, stating that the Hunting Act was confusingly worded. Prescott and Clarissa pleaded guilty to illegal coursing, and again the judge gave absolute discharges. No costs were levied against any of the defendants. I still see and chat with one of the other lady defendants, she usually has one of her old coursing whippets with her at the Whippet racing. Grand old lady to chat to

Feeding this morning and with the thick fog it was still dark up there at 8, nothing had quite woken up when I set out and there was still a lot of birds around the pens, heading over the piggeries with the fog through the trees there was quite a few deer about, by the time I got to the main feed area over there I was met by a group of about 50 birds, the majority of them hens for some reason all looking at me as if to say “ where the hell have you been, we’re starving “. Next day on Saturday so with a bit of luck it will be a good one ?

when the ban came in a friend of mine said 'if you outlaw hunting then outlaws will go hunting' and that is what it often looks like

Hang the lot

Indoor plumbing is getting a lot more popular now, some houses even have electricity ! ? ! Cheers.

I'm thinking of putting a whippet or whippetxterrier to the brown and white bitch above at some point. I think I've had enough of big lurchers, these small ones suit me

Lad I know , very quiet lad , didn’t know what a phone is , older type , had patterdales mid 90s onwards . Finishing off and as they were packing away , the end of a shovel caught in the mechanism and smashed a brake light cover on his vitara. was driving home in the motorway and as he emerged at the junction , a Volvo t 5 was sat at the top . The traffic cops face he said was a picture as he stared at the boxed up black dogs with half faces left . you’d have thought they’d caught al Capone 35 years of keeping earth dogs and never bothering a soul , f****d by

looks like a Chinese wet market , ?

What you need is something like these!

Always remember them as a kid and having one in the first terraced house I bought and the walls being white washed do they even sell whitewash these days lol

Yerr, I bought 700 a few months back. S&B, I like ‘em ??

Jackdaws. Millions of them now to.

Found this of one of mine from a good few years back. Good, honest, game little dog.... Yokel

this bitch was out of the last litter i bred out of him Yokel. proper chip of the block in every way. i still miss jack. was a grand little dog.

Remember the Working Lurcher Association? When it was going to become affiliated with the Countryside Alliance ? I was asked to become a committee member but declined. I knew since the Hunting Ban that the CA had no interest in Lurchers, and would throw us under the bus without a moments hesitation, and they have at every opportunity! As for confiscating dogs, it's nothing new, there's lads on here who have had dogs taken. Poaching has never been legal, and to be fair, the punishments have been far harsher in the past, but on balance, I wouldn't mind being deported to Australia

.22 shorts are still made. My local has some s&b in stock.

I know, it’s just a daft saying round here.

Some interesting thoughts? Obviously,.. we are all individuals when it comes to pricing for mole trapping work, so there will always be a massive difference in costing... Personally,.. I no longer have to take on big farms, as I have hundreds of private gardens,, small holdings, etc, on my books Facts are, I can never do all the work requested of me, so I invariably pass it on, to trusted operatives. Nice situation to be in, but, it has taken me a long old while to become.. financially, 'self sufficient'...? With that in mind,.. the best advice that I could ever give

I remember the old man having a tin of 22 shorts you don’t see them anymore, he gave me these after he handed his shotgun ticket in

no; being written for fox hunting again, poaching is trespass in pursuit of game. fox hunting goes against the hunting act but foxes arent game so not poaching

Had knee op so not been out for while hope get back out after the festivities and i get some photos up PUD

Think you should leave the Jussie jokes to Chappelle.

Steady walk up Swinyard, Giants Cave and over to British Camp. Great scenery on my doorstep, with quite frankly the best company. All taken with S21.

Formula 1 has nothing on 90s rally, they were the golden era after the group b days

Where's Green Lurchers? ? Cheers, D.
