If my son phoned me at 3 in the morning to tell me he’d caught some over-sized goldfish, I’d have driven the hour to the lake and feckin drowned him in it.

Since retirement I have dabbled with a bit of painting and drawing, and largely enjoyed it. Done all sorts of subjects (except hunting scenes) in watercolour, oil paint and a few graphite drawings. Last couple of years I've not been able to find the enthusiasm to restart. I have tried different styles as well, even had a go at the Bob Ross method in oils. I have sold a few and done a few commissions for people and given a fair few away. Did a watercolour doberman for my brother Done my son's dog some years back and sent it out to Aussie for him

Seen some cracking, running dog based Bull crosses recently, fabulous critters, I just wish I could turn back time, like my gal Cher...

Had a phone call at 3.45 this morning from my son who,s out fishing, he has just caught his first 30lb carp at 34.12, I would normally have driven the hour to the lake to share the moment but had agreed to drop my daughter off at the bus station at 6 for a coach to London, so I got up at 4 and boned out a belly of pork stuffed it with herbs and put it in for 4 hrs low and slow, picked my daughter up at 545 and dropped her into the station for her coach, on the way out of town bit of police activity in the Avon gorge, so slowed down for a bit of a gander to see them pulling a dead body out the

Well the sea bass and squid felt the heat ? , a fine day of feast and fare ahead George’s day ?

Always said when I win the lottery I’m going to buy a couple of hundred acres and let it go wild, graze it with a few pony’s and cows and live in the middle of it in bliss.

I know my father used set them when he was young, He would be about 90 if he was still around. I think there were two sizes for rabbits and a smaller one for rats. I found some on a farm tip when I was a young I cleaned them up with a wire brush polished the little brass triggers painted them matt black and sold them to an dealer. I kept a couple of the small rat ones and set them down the bottom of the garden as a neighbour kept budgies and the rat used to run the fence line, about 2 o'clock in the morning I got hoofed out of bed and a slap around the back of my head " you've got a gin set

Hey Guy’s was out again yesterday with Jonesy, Kass, Zip, a box of ferrets , a longnet and some purse nets, we headed out to Dave’s sheep paddock to do a fence line, I haven’t done for awhile. We had a great day out in the field, the scenery was fantastic, managed to get a few rabbits, caught up with Dave and his neighbour Sherel ( yep that’s how she spells it) got a new permission that has been on my radar, so all in all a very good day Hope you enjoy the video. Take care guys.

do you know I think its realy good how the institutions these days give their inmates access to the internet .

Greyman isn't trying to convince anyone of f**k all, it's his own opinion. He clearly doesn't give a f**k what anyone on here thinks lol

I hope you go round all the local churches and give them shit aswell

That Dartford Warbler is a belter mate that is so sharp, the others are good as well but love that one. Cheers Arry

One of my local commons is bursting with birds at the moment Cuckoo My first Redstart And loads of Dartford Warblers

Shes young in lizard years.

Not saying he was as good as him ,but Len Bolton comes to mind

Can't be assed reading all the thread ,but I watched Colin bell quite a lot ,a great player imho ,comparable with lots of more famous ,higher profile players. ,didn't get the credit he deserved because he played before all the stats and blanket coverage started also be played for a joke of a club ,but a proper class thoroughbred of a player .

Buzzards and Hawks were really on the hunt tonight. Can`t be sure of the bird but I watched what I thought was a buzzard, close it`s wings, like a Peregrine Falcon, high up and dive at speed after something.( birds of prey lads advise please ? ) The pigeons were on high alert, to say the least tonight. I also watched a buzzard, try several times this evening, to gently coast into roosting birds as though he was just another pigeon, to see the trees " Explode" with a mass exodus of wood pigeons, realising in the last split second, t

We all Love to get back to a net bouncing with a few rabbits but the satisfaction of running a net out without a hitch and with a nice breeze in your face comes a very close second for me.

You've just gone and ruined your credibilty on here, by putting 'boy not girl', instead of DOG not BITCH

I’m glad for him to be honest, listening to some Arsenal fans of late has been both understandable and sickening in equal measure. If Sir Alex is the greatest manager and motivator that English football has ever seen (and he is) then Arsene is the greatest coach and conisiure of the game that English football has ever seen. His Invincible team showed everyone in the world exactly how the game should be played.......they should show every school boy in the world that teams unbeaten season if they want to learn the game. Sir Alex and Arsene have given England simply the best footb

+1 for fac rapid,love my 1 a mk2 .22 ,a real tack driver and so easy to maintain yourself,bombproof ultimate hunting rifle imo

he was just saying shit happens lol

Buy an FAC Rapid they are considerably cheaper than a sub 12 gun and less hassle as less paperwork. For FAC you want a late mk2 gun with a reg as standard so higher shot count and a mk4 trigger unit also as well as better porting more suited for FAC.Another bonus with the Rapid platform is that they have a massive following and standard and uprated parts are easily available,also there are new designs being developed and new parts being made all the time for them . Like already mentioned some of these Rapids are well over 20 years old and still going strong .

You get on down there mate but you probably won't find me, in a hundred and ten pages I have not lived there, only the bloke who I,ve invited along on several occasions has come up with that location, maybe he did come after all but is lost, don't think I,m being rude but I need a day off, I've been up all night and am a little bit knackered, ?

I just looked at that mate,its more of a tour company Islamabad to kashgar sort of thing,phone a couple up like this these,its safe as its the indian himalayas,i have been to ladakh and its a stunning place,your probably going up places like zanskar valley and trek higher,good luck,even if you don't see a cat your still going to have a fantastic experience. http://www.naturetrek.co.uk/tour.aspx?id=230 https://www.naturalworldsafaris.com/wildlife/snow-leopards Read the article... https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/destinations/asia/india/articles/snow-leopards-in-india-ladak

I don't know if this exists and I can't find it on THL or if has been done before and was not popular. But the idea of this thread is for people to submit their own art, drawn or painted by the individual rather than purchased. A few days ago I saw a very nice drawing in the Lurcher section but I forgot exactly where and now cannot find it. Maybe there could be a place where our own art could be placed? Not for critique or ego, merely to share. I have know a few people who have drawn and painted yet keep it to themselves as a kind of dirty secret. Not sure why. I have always loved a

I genuinely think he only gives it out when he gets it

No he doesn't that's why he's forever trying to explain himself. He doesn't care yet throws out insults when questioned on the subject. Hey the matter excites me but the lack of evidence is pretty damning. I do wish he was correct i really do.

Maybe I should give my daughter some grief as well...she's always telling me santa is real

I would straight away,no problems eating a f**k off huge slice of humble-pie,i would even buy him one of those posh sounding brie and whatever sarnies.

I think is a dam shame really all the slagging and insults, Greyman is a believer in what he's doing and out there trying to proving it. Not just sat behind a PC collecting data. If it gets you out in the countryside doing what you what to do then good on him. Better we help him out by feeding little bits of info we might come across. I know more country men that have seen big cats than have not, unfortunately i'm one who has not seen one. Just because I haven't does not me a none believer, it would be calling loads of friend liars. I think most of know when somebody spinning a yarn, so i'll k

only puppy peddlars ask silly money for pups ? normally genuine breeders sell at working mans prices ? and I agree with jerry I wouldn't pay £350 for any pup , take a look at designer dog market cockerpoos etc £700 for a mongrel with a silly name ? well I know who the silly ones are ? lol

Another of mine. Long gone. The dog not the drawing obviously.

Who can get me a rock hammer and a poster of Rita Hayworth

the sire is kc reg Bedlington did u see its papers ? as a kc dog its as good as u will see ? think off the top of me head it goes back to staleys stuff ? i wont get into a debate about beddys coz no terrier causes so much controversy ? but firstx beddy/greys take some beating they good honest doers .but id say that as that's all iv worked for a very long time now and love them as they got nose that would put a hound to shame ? but iv seen good collie lurchers and whippets do the job well ? but i just think for me beddys av just got that something else ? atb

Im sure someone will be along to tell you the age...., I borrowed a couple as a kid from a farmer in the late 70’s....I was bit different to all my mates living in a major city lol....found the local tannery which was crawling with rats and trapped bloody loads with the old gins using slices of pear as bait ! ( can’t remember now where I got the pair from !).....happy days ...

Rough ole sort if im honest,and being a copper makes even less attractive.
