After an MRI Scan it has been revealed that my prostate cancer ends no further treatment. After X-rays on my shoulder(following a fall whilst setting some crayfish traps where I maybe should not have been) they say that mild osteoarthritis is my problem. Heard the cuckoo again. Saw my first rabbit in ages which was a black un. Heard that rabbit population on one of my old perms is on the mend, East Midlands Airport. Her in doors still loves me. What a day. Jok.

God save the Queen! ?

Im sure it was a southern fella had lucky as a pup. The buzz I get when my dog catches is because we’re a team, if I bought someone else’s dog & caught a hare with it I wouldn’t feel nothing, just the same as watching a strangers dog on a video

Who the heck is this idiot ?

The queen said I could have a couple of days off, the missus said I had to put a new back fence up

Yeah dogs only need to be sharp for hares, everything else just rolls over really

Even sheep shearer had put some bunting on her rig

Both. I've not seen the fallow yet but the roe doe reared two siblings last year and the buck is still about. There are reports of muntjac nearby and so I'm ever hopeful. I did find two fallow bucks elsewhere.

Yes, the one in the book was back when he was a young lad in Yorkshire around a hundred years ago. I checked and it was a dog called Jim which was half "hunt terrier" half whippet. It was bred by a local chap called Luke and he sold then partly trained. The training involved whacking them with his cap if they did anything wrong so, whenever Jack Hargreaves doffed his cap at a passer by, Jim would race over to his heel for fear of being told off.?

A lurcher can take a lot of work , these lads with 4/5 runners is crazy no way are they giving them all enough work , one coming on , on worker and one nearly retired it’s the best way 2/3 dogs in there prime or coming on you can’t be giving them the work load

That's not a dog man regardless of his success that's a cnut ?

When Prince Harry was going through a difficult time in his teens he spent a lot of time out with hunt terrier men. Not one of those men or the young farmers betrayed his trust. Most were on £150 quid a week and could really of done with the 10 grand the newspapers would of given them.... Wheres Harry now when those men are thrown from their jobs. The people of the East end were massive supporters of England and the Royal family.....now the East end of London looks like my local town of Bolton....its more like down town Somalia. What about some support for those communities which have be

to Överkalix close to the arctic circle after I got a new job within forestry I have bought a new house close to Swedens best salmon river. Plenty of opportunitys for small game and fishing A couple of spring photos by the river during the spring flood now in may-june. A forrest with Mallard ducks.

Did ya ?

First night with c50 on hmr. Was back at the lambing field just before dark. The picture through the c50 at dusk is fantastic. No other NV I have looked through will pick up light like that without ir. First fox came out just before dark and was chest shot about 75 yards. Spent another 2 hours there played various different calls. But only had one more come in. I have to admit this one was pilot error and miss? The scope is great after dark really coming into its own. But for me the most surprising was last light. Controls were easy to navigate and quick response. Great field o

Cuckoo going off this morning in Northumberland, lovely sound

I'm the same nothing beats daylight foxing it's just a shame we dont have many. I suppose we appreciate it more when we do get one.

Money shot cumin and turmeric chicken , with oil, cider vinegar, smoked paprika, salt and pepper touch of nutmeg....

Did my bit for queen and Country yesterday.... ?

Underdone sausage ?

Dads mate served on ss uganda the hospital ship , the uganda hardly seems to get a mention but was vitaly important in saving lives

Anyone watching the Jubilee Concert? Who was that fat ponce who was supposed to be Freddy, looked like James Corden in drag and couldn't reach a note higher than middle FFS. Adam Lambert, just googled him ?American non-entity. Fred be spinning in his grave. The cleanest hole he ever went in. Cheers, D.

Seemed like the place to post this rather than a new thread. This is RFA Sir Tristram, served in the Falkland’s and even survived being bombed. Can’t be many vessels left from that era now. Maybe only the Conqueror? We got up close…

A little Katy ....

From what I'm told....Everywhere is flooded with green,has been for months,prices have plummeted 95/100 an Oz on full boxes...you can't give it away-theres folks crawling out from everywhere looking to make sales?...smart people are bright enough to have the Albanians etc growing decent strains instead of that nasty commercial pond weed ammo and stardog they churn out? The better stuff always comes from the smaller operations not those on the gravy train?

find the little beddy crosses ideal for the catty.

Are you "coming out"??

Old Phil you got some cracking photos them wee lurchers you keep look keen as and always in great nic .... keep on keeping on aul stick

Roe deer and Muntjac are a blessed nuisance. I wish someone would thin the feckers right out...?

Can't be dealing with pups and defo not out of non proven stuff .I'll be going against things I've said for 40 odd years .

Holidaymaker catches Gwynedd 'puma' on thermal camera - North Wales Live WWW.DAILYPOST.CO.UK Nick Lachevre went looking for the animal after several reported sightings in the Pwllheli area since March

Some super pink

Hand on heart the best hare killing dog i have ever seen belonged to a old hippy i knew,she lived in a buss and most on here would have laughed at her and her dog.The dog was a beddy grey type looking thing with a cocked ear, it just knew when a hare was in a field and used some amazing to watch field craft to catch them.I watched it stalk hares,flush and just turn before the hares did and they just seemed to run into it's mouth and it had some pace to get one under pressure out in the open and all done on Wiltshire flint and chalk. Got caught by land owners etc with her a few times and she ju

Just think how many useful dogs like her there was back then before everything got bred for appearance. I think I've said it before on here but I bet some of them black and tan mongrels from when I was a kid that were latch key mutts would have bred some proper lurchers, streetwise mongrels that knew how to get a feed or a jump.

Meanwhile, back on the lettuce patrol tonight. Hartley and his mates were giving the newly planted lettuce a bashing. We had to show willing and go and thin them out a bit. Anyone with a choked shotgun can have it bored out for thirty pounds a barrel. I have had three AYAs done and they are just fine using super steel. I have also been buying rifle bullets and storing them in case the lead replacement is crap.?

Coursing games full of wealthy men that buy in someone else’s hard work, don’t mistake them for dog men though, take away their money they’d probably never have a good dog

Chipmunk packing its cheeks hamster style.

Been out and about the last few days and don’t think I’ve seen a bit of bunting or flag flying. Think there were only a handful of street parties organised, mostly in Glasgow. I know that’ll offend some on here, and maybe provoke the usual verbal disdain for us Scots from the usual quarters, but there is genuinely very little visible evidence that anyone up here gives a toss. Nothing ‘anti’…, just apathy.

Just ordered another Nick Hegerty, ordered this one

Well I went ahead and bought it,along with some 9.5mm steel balls ammo.Looking forward to a good mooch about.

Cbd has 0 effect lol

Gingerbeard, liked a rummage through the laundry basket ??

Well I never got my buck, only seen one doe, I suppose it was a little early not tending to see much emerging from the wood before last light, as I walked the bottom gutter towards the wood I glimpsed a flash of ginger along the bottom of the field, it was a fox no more than 40 yards walking towards me, as I seen it, it seen me, turned tail and ran, not even giving me enough time to mount the rifle Now I know different shooters like different types of shooting, but the ultimate over all other shooting for me is daylight fox shooting, especially on a warm bright evening, I love it and can s

Nee cake for afters like?

His parents were working dogs on an oz cattle ranch mate. He is from pure working lines.

I would say make the most of it boys, I can’t help but feel that once the old girl go’s that’s the end of it…..it will all be totally gone then. ?
