My grandad move to Ireland over 45 year ago but still goes back over a few time a year to the few friends and family that's still around but said he could never stay more than a few days because its all changed so much he and an old friend dove down the street where they grew up he, told me it's like a different country but he did tell me the farm he work on before he left is still in the same family and when he went up the owner new him straight away that made him smile haha

I think going to the keeper cap in hand isn't a bad idea see if he can help u get the dogs back all he can say is feck off you got caught other than that I think you'll have to take what's happened as wrong place wrong time and next time run like feck

To me if you can't walk with a lamp in your hand it ain't lamping now before anyone jumps on me I no some people do drive and that's what suits them but it not for me.

I was up with my grandad last night as always it came around dogs. He was saying he started with a greyhound his mother had for flapping.I think he said that the track was where burton Albion stadium is now or around their I'm not to sure. Anyhow he said it could do most thing to put food on the table and win a few pound now and again . He said that nearly all houses had a hound of some sort. And there was no kennels the dog was in a shed and went where it wanted till it was need.if he was going lamping or off hunting there was always someone else dogs tagging along too.and know one batted an

First rule is if you ain't meant to be there and a light come on or guards pull up to a gate is get the feck out asap that's a lesson learned about the dogs I actually dont no what the law is in Ireland about poaching I've never waited around to find out

I know a lad that will only go lamping Friday,Saturday nights I've passed him with a car load and he cant figure out why he dont get much haha.now when I go lamping it me,myself and I a lamp and a dog or two.feck going out with people that ain't got a clue
-
I had the other half lamping with me before we had the kids she wanted to see what it was I did at night I think she thought I was having. An affair haha I was out that much but the lad I had with me that night id take the wife any night lamping even with all her taking.
-
The worst for me has to be a young lad .he was at me for ages to bring him lamping. So I gave in one night told him to be at my house for 9 that night. He's an half hour late turned up gray tracksuit bottoms cream jacket and runners all fecking nike . So I spend another 20 min get him some sort of bottom jacket and a pair of boots. And it didn't get any better from then on. Banging gates fell about 10 foot into a drain walked into electric wire. Thought I'd never get back to the car to get him home. Funnily he's never about going again. ATB bob

http://www.rte.ie/archives/2015/0424/696418-aran-islands-rabbit-plague/ The above link is from 30 years ago. Don't know what it's like now but that's the kind of place you need to look for. what you need to give is a bit of time and diesel money for research. max you seem will up on the running dog font if u don't mind me asking how long does it take for a dog to get back from a trapped nerve. Any any advice well lads its going on 3"week and the vet just seem to be putting a saddle on me everytime I go.

There is rabbits in numbers on some farms but they dont want you on their because its for the hare coursing clubs to net but u do get a few before the lights come on. And where there was good numbers last year they have just disappeared
