  1. Think they just put them up any signs of lamping, think it will probably just be local farmer sticking them up more than anyone else. I knew a spot not too far lads used to run bigger stuff but not the hares and they went up round there, suppose it’s just a little scare tactic
  2. Mainly use it in the day mate but if I’m going to new ground that me and the dogs are not familiar with and depending what we’re running then I put the collars on lamping. Helps with marking where the bus is so we can just walk and I get back no problems. Atb Igz
  3. Costs me 100 quid every 6-7 weeks to feed my two. They get lamb, beef, tripe and chicken. All top quality and they throw me a big bag of bones and scraps from pig bones and skin to to offcuts of lamb and beef. Throw a tin of mackerel in every week. Porridge of a morning bit of veg here and there and whatever else we find during the season. They seem to do well on it but think I need to bring the portions down I can see the weight coming on them both the last month since they not working hard
  4. Nah he looks after me mr Penda does. He’s got no choice as he likes to borrow my best frock now and again ?
  5. Could do with another bottle of that cherry mate I’m all out ?.
  6. Jeyes fluid and zaflora for me most of the time. Scrub it with jeyes fluid first the rinse it down with a bit of zaflora as the mrs hates the smell of jeyes but I actually quite like it but I also don’t think it’s as strong as it used to be. My dogs rarely shit in there kennel so just wash it down probably twice a week maybe every other day during the summer. I end up going a bit over the top with the zaflora though using half a bottle a time and at 3 quid a bottle it becomes an expensive hose down. Mate gets me some cherry deodoriser sometimes aswel which is good. Can smell it when I come out
  7. Looks a strong dog mate. What’s in him ?
  8. Yes he did. Has a bitch back now out the litter which I thinks doing well and I also know there’s another out the litter down Northampton way that’s doing ok too Atb Igz
  9. Happy days mate, she looks a solid bitch. Hope things work out. Good signs if most doing what there owners want. Took pup out few nights ago to be honest I’d only been walking mine now really but there was high winds and it was quite cold so I wanted to keep him up to date with things and he had couple nice catches. I know it’s probably a bit late but that will be us finished now ending on a high. Sure wel bump into a few bits and pieces on our local summer walks but he seems like he got heart. Even better for you aswel as it’s a bitch and I know you want to keep your own stuff so it could be
  10. Tried it once, never again. Too many cats or foxes round by me and if I left them to run off lead they either be hit by a car or over someone’s back garden after sumet. I just find places with no one about and plenty of free running gets em fit enough and as long as your out for atlest an hour or two a day they will keep a certain fitness through summerAtb Igz
  11. Always said I liked the look of that pup ?
  12. Fair play mate, happy to hear it for you. Even better when they surprise you like that. Mine done exactly same at 9 month. Finished on a high last night of the season with 3. Hopefully they keep it up ??
  13. Looks like your doing a good enough job to me. I’m a long way but I’ve got loads of therma board 75 or 100 ml thick I would have let you have you you wanted it. I’m going to insulate myne out over the summer and maybe line it with some sort of plastic. Atb Igz
  14. Don’t just leave them c**ts to take your phone and dog mate I would be on the phone every minute trying to get dog back and deffinatley be getting phone off rspca they have no rights to have your phone. If you don’t try to get dog it’s suspect he’s your pet you want him back. Don’t take no for an answer. Quick phone call from a solicitor and I’m sure you’ll get your dog and phone backAtb Igz
  15. Go on GPS4us website, if I was you I’d go for the t5 mini there a lot smaller than the normal t5. Battery less but mini is still more than enough. Think you get about 9 hours life. Speak with them on the online chat but they are American so you will need to speak with them at the right time or just leave a messsge but the ones I’ve had I just order and they work straight out the box. Remember you will have to buy the handset with it. Think it’s the alpha 100 now. I have the old 360 but think that’s discontinued now. Deffo worth the money.
  16. Can’t go wrong with the garmin t5 minis but I know people use others which are a bit cheaper.atb Igz
  17. Get caught with a knife they have to arrest for possession of a bladed article I presume then obviously if you have a dog with you, lamp and the rest they will look into it a little.Easiest thing for them to do is give dog to rspca. If your in court you’ve been charged surely your paperwork tells you what your offence is. You need to give the full story to get a straight answer else the answers you’ll get will be wrong. I’ve spent a lot of time at her majesty’s pleasure when younger and people only tell you the bits they want to tell you and ask what you think about the situation where if they
  18. I don’t mind a bit of night bushing, normally go over the golf course opposite my house and let them run free for an hour or two. Just had to cut tonight’s session short though as my young dog just hit a tree. I’ve got thermal so I will watch them through that as they go about there business and they had just had a little run when I could see one of them was on the way back towards me and in between us sat a couple of bunnies between a tree line so as he s within 20 yards I flick the lamp on then as he spots it and turns he hits it. A right f***ing thud. Heart was in my mouth as I got to him a
  19. Yes she looks in good shape mate. He done well for me again this season mate to be fair. He gets better every season for me. Rarely takes any stick now and he has a big heart so does just fine for me. He had his faults but they don’t really bother me for what I want him for so I try to work him to his strengths. Think he only been layed up once for a week this season so he’s been busy but I also think he been the key to my young dog taking to things so well. As well as all the hours we’ve put in. Atb Igz
  20. Your bitch looking well mate ??
  21. I’m not nocking some of the older fellas saying they wouldn’t pay more than 2-250 for a Lurcher and I didn’t give anymore than that myself for either of my two but I just think with the way times have changed the price of everything changes. For the sake of an extra hundred quid would you really not buy it if that’s what you wanted especially when it’s something that’s hopefully going to give you maybe 8,10 years maybe even longer s worth of enjoyment and companionship. If there was something I wanted and I had the money to spare I’d buy it within reason obviously. Understand if it was way ove
  22. I’d say I’ve run him a little heavy this season to be honest but I just wanted to keep a bit of meat on him. Next season I will trim him down a bit to hopefully make him that little bit sharper. They will still get out for atlest an hour or so most days during the summer so won’t be just lying on there bed. I actually like to wake up at 4-5 in the morning in the summer months throw a t shirt and shorts on and have a quick hour local before the dog walkers get out. Atb Igz
