  1. exactly mate. I think changing anything too fast will undo all the good work.
  2. I know what you are saying mate but think back to your teens we were same. back then I knew everything now 40 years on and on and I still know fxxck all.
  3. did you have 3 whippets at one point?
  4. what was he like trev? I know you have said before you didn't have much luck with a few of the Mike brown ones
  5. I have a romany in the fields 1937 I think. it was my dad's, read it as a kid still a good read
  6. thanks for the offer but leave it for someone who will use it as a 50.i have 50s I could split down. was just looking for a 25 yard already set up on pins?
  7. fxxck me Mr Wilkes you have a enough gear to tackle watership down. you haven't got a decent 25 yarder spare have you.
  8. netrigger is the man to ask mate?
  9. not seen any but it just encourages the do gooders. rabbits have declined here but hare numbers are good. little dog puts them up she can't catch them anyway, but your forever looking over your shoulder for a do gooder ringing plod.
  10. I am looking to go back to whippet to breed a three quarter pup for myself. it will be my only litter I would think. I have had lurchers over 30 years but always bought in from people i usually know.
  11. I get where your coming from ?but when you become a old fart like me mooching about with a jill inside jacket and half a dozen nets you just might change your mind.
  12. all had good nose, beddy blood always has. but f1 nose has been better on every occasion for me. line bred usually made racier, quicker. on the downside the f1 all seem to have that stubborn streak. this bitch I have now is the best finder I have ever had and does what I bought her for but fxxck me she's a fxxxcking funny dog.
  13. a question for you mate. I only have beddywhippets and over the years have had line bred and genuine f1. I have found a difference in the two. have you found this with beddy x greyhound?
  14. nice one ? have you ever thought of a career in politics.
  15. I don't think much as changed. I have been around lurchers a lot of years and I don't recall seeing a genuine f1 that was worked regularly.
  16. she is making a nice steady bitch ?. how does she compare work wise with the young bitch you lost that was bred the same way? she was looking a good un.
  17. round here as soon as lads see them it's like a scene from the alamo ??
  18. I used to love longnetting, still do but not been the rabbits last few years. found a spot a bit back with a dozen out feeding regularly. one drop with 2 nets and bit of luck a decent catch. decided it better to have regular mooch with dog and picking odd 1s up and something for the dog to work. as poxon says you are having to manage them now days.
  19. I still see myxi as the biggest killer of rabbits and not rhd.
  20. good luck ?. last few years here looked like it could be picking up at last. Young about through summer, soon as autumn came hardly anything, usually myxi has struck. I don't expect anything else now.
  21. picked one up on way to work just been hit by a car. lovely clean doe. not in kindle or milky, which it should have been really.
