Used the boards to make the base rail for my balustrade... designed the rails with a mate to fabricate, bit of work in drilling and shaping the boards, but came up well...got an oak top rail to finish...

This terrier was a more than a competent ferreting dog. Not a job he was bred or really trained for but just took to everything. Particularly useful in places where rabbits were thin on the ground, or rather the easy ones had long since been hunted out. If you can't find them you cant catch them. Would dearly loved to have put him over a whippet but never got around to it. Carried on grafting until the age of 12, above ground anyway, and even then wasn't showing signs of slowing down much until the big C got him. A very happy 12 years.

? Its getting a tad on the nerdy side on here.....? Personally,...I've no head for mathematical and algebraic equations or who is fastest....I just want a result... By fair means or foul....?

We are having a whip round

Seen a few half X bull Grey's and 3/8 5/8s running alongside the jeep up to 38/40 mph, my mate had a coll/whip/grey dog hit 40 mph...was only 23tts same as my old beddy bull bitch...both killed a fair amount of hares in the day, when younger ,my old bitches party trick when she got to 7/8 yr old,was scooping them out their seat at night off the lamp, could go out and not even use the lamp,she caught untold stuff,was a f****r for anything that bit back,showed up some big dogs in her time?....I best not mention the whippets I've seen catching the Welsh mountain hares up on top over the yrs?

You could feel like you’re going mad as a box of frogs.., ten minutes on here and you feel like one of the sanest people going about. Stick about mate, you’re always good value ?? And get well soon.

Is that after 12 hours listening to your medical problems ? Poor c**t is probably clawing for the morphine bottle ! Lol ?

Now I love to wind someone up as much as any man, but there are limits. so i say this in serious mode. Think about what you have written and then think about this, if the greyhound is at full speed on the runup, regardless of that speed, and the hare gains on it, even if its just for a few yards, then the hare is going faster at that point, common physics. Next point how do they do it, well they maintain there speed longer than the hare can, the more stamina they have the longer they run. After all Beagles catch hares, your not going to tell anyone a beagle is faster than a hare I h

Makes my 3 tonight look feeble tbh ,not seen that many rabbits around here for 15/ 20 years . After a good sit n wait session for no show fox ,the cow pasture produced these 3 for the pot . And to take the pee saw a fox trotting merrily through town on my way home ?

Feta salad for dinner.

Going through the same with my ole fella at the minute, dementia is a hateful thing to have to watch a loved one living through.

You've inspired me Sandy with your talent mate.. a real gift you've got there. Just knocked this up for the mother-in-law after a few Westons... Hope she likes it!!??

Definite theme here with the old terriers coming up trumps.

Was out the other week, just had an hour or so float fishing, while I was there there was a lad walking the lake spinning with a tiny silver meps, I got 5 in that time he was on 20+ Ide go mad for tiny spinners on the right day

A greyhound has definitely got more speed than a hare and would catch any hare than continued to run in a straight line as long as it’s got a mouth, it’s the hares agility, stamina and acceleration out of the turns which makes it hard to catch

what people are trying to say greb is when the hare wants to accelerate at that point it is hitting speeds like a greyhound it’s how long they keep that speed up why after halftime a minute does the hare straight line a greyhound because the grey can’t keep its top speed up

I think of the midlands as the forest beyond the wall, get through that and it’s nothing but freezing wasteland ! Lol ?

Hares only run as fast as they need to, sometimes they get it wrong and they get taken on the run up before the first turn.

The Accident or Laddie as they called it was some dog by all accounts with a running brain also the Hoover was often spoke about by the lads down south years ago.

Every country has their own pest problems, some unique, some not so unique. I believe that it is only Australia and New Zealand that share the problem of Wallabies as pests. New Zealand has a policy of total eradication - if only it can be achieved. Australia has a bit more of a difficult problem with them as they are not an introduced invasive pest there but an indigenous mammal and also regarded by some, as a national treasure. That said, they still have a huge impact on pastureland. Unfortunately here in New Zealand, wallabies have acclimatised well and possibly thrive better here than

Yes it was as they told me, a mini stroke, its just buggered up balance a little, they brought a middle aged chap in during the night with a stroke, he is in a bad way, keep. Well folks

can we get back to talking about lucky,his running style and what made him one of the greats.also what makes a good running dog on the big land.what type of running style would lads prefer on big land.

Another bitch of mine

another two Yong bitches

Top dog that bulldozer like I said I’m no expert but heard about him from lads in the know & if nobody could beat him says it all to me

Thanks for your time, Ok but I was not on about dogs overshooting or hare jinking etc. but not too worry its all getting beyond me.

Well due to the constant rain showers there wasn't much about , I was hoping for a crow or magpie. Ended up with 2 rabbits and 2 woodies .

My father in law who is 87, 88 in August has had numerous mini strokes which causes him to fall over a lot it’s like a cycle have a stroke fall over spend time in hospital come home, they have upped his meds for his blood pressure which seems to have stabilised him lately, we have tried to get him in full time care but his wife my mother in law who has alzheimers doesn’t want to leave the family home which they have lived in since the 1960s also he has dementia it’s not good getting old, it seems to be a full time job looking after them.

Field Sports Britain The Fish Locker (He used to post on this forum) The Shooting Show TA Outdoors Haze Outdoors Anything carp fishing related (but it all gets a bit samey) I find myself hardly watching any terrestrial TV now and any time spent watching the box its youtube

Just did a quick calculation based on the time it takes a top non-ped Whippet to run 150 yards, in my mind the fastest dog over that distance, and the terminal velocity is just a fraction under 38 mph. Hope this helps ! ??! Cheers.

Good morning Mr..... What would you like for breakfast, we have porridge or toast n marmalade, so I says, I'm famished love, could I. Have the porridge we a couple of rashers of bacon in it please, that didn't go down well with her at all

One time I was in NZ , around 30 years ago, and I saw an advertisement in a vets window for Government cullers for 'possum. It was a very basic wage, with subsistence allowance and bonus per kill, living in a shack in the bush. I thought " that would do for me, but reading the small print it was mainly baiting traps with 1080. See if you can get hold of Barry Crumps book "A Good Keen Man", it's all about pig, goat, deer cullers in the 50's in NZ, a great read. Cheers.

Lovely work as aways Kev ?

I'm mentally disturbed.

I’m totally fine with that, I think it’s amazing that people still live that way. My point was, the differences between us are obvious to see mate ?

To be fair, there's small pockets of folk dotted around the planet that actually want nothing to do with the modern world - they live in harmony with nature and, they probably have skills that we have long since forgotten. I'm stuck in the rat race, chasing little bits of paper with numbers and some old girls picture on them so that I can pay old c**ts whatever they say I owe them. It does make me wonder some times.
