  4. done a few rubble piles on airfields in Lincolnshire, they are hard places but got to agree railway embankments are the worst
  5. nice shooting , have you turned all respectable?, I hope not we might all end up with a good name
  6. I think all dogs are different temperaments, not down to a certain breeding, my two, the beddywhippet doesn't like it if you raise your voice, were as the whippet thinks get f****d, one can take a bollocking the other can't, it's down to the individual dog.
  7. year's ago 70s maybe whippet x bull was popular around here, they always used Stafford Bull blood, which seemed to be a smaller leaner dog than today's Stafford, made cracking little lurchers.
  8. not a prayer my friend, you had to travel light, going under hedges, over fences, traditional net in jacket and pegs far less conspicuous, no bulky stuff like today.
  9. my comment wasn't aimed at you, just a point of view, even my own father used to see us lads going lamping and would say you may as well knock on every farmers fxxking door and tell them where you are.
  10. the old poachers would be mortified at the thought of a lamp
  11. you sure about that tomo? according to public opinion we are all dossers who have never had a job

  17. is that a codeword for the keepers were getting close
  18. ferreted with some good Russell's years ago, many of them failed fox dogs, didn't bother us at all.
  19. what was he Terry a Russel?, used to be some good rabbiting terriers years ago.
  20. a good friend of mine getting on in years now, he was a keen longnetting chap he always said the heaviest bag to carry..... was an empty one.
  21. one rabbit, not worth turning out for.......... only joking mate, looked a good morning out. all I get is ones and if I am lucky two. Little Jill and half a dozen net's in jacket and both dogs it's still as good today even without the numbers
  22. each to their own, but I find 9.5mm steel work better with lighter bands, thicker doesn't mean faster, you have to match the ammo with the band,.65 I find suits me I wouldn't go above..7 for 9.5mm.
