saluki bouy

Amazing mate thanks so much

That’s where my kids bide pal ….. that’s the most interesting that’s happened there for a long time

Sorry pal didn’t mean to interrupt the thread but there was another recently wilf said you had recommended him books was along lines of Ulster Scots pioneering America anything similar subject mate please send me a list been a while since I get myself into anything new been on a journey with author James Michener recently sorry folks for high jacking thread

Is that right it? Never knew that one cheers

You rip there curry recipes right of them bangers lad we gave them the railways after all

Mad as f**k posting that shit hate to think the pop ups on your phone now after googling that ….. unless that’s actually from you photo album lol goldfinches and fetishes

Agreed on both points there Scottie ….. fecking windmills no many hilltops you can’t see them from around here …. You watched Taylor Sheridan’s Landsman? No sure I’m tech savvy enough to post the clip when he’s telling the young lawyer how “green” they aren’t!

We’d get a choice of crisps for our sandwiches 3/4 Sundays then Iceland fish and chips the 4th always home made trifle laced with sherry always thought it was mad no one smoked at my grans yet when her cousin came round she was allowed to chain smoke in the kitchen with an ashtray at the table door and window open…. Women never let the packet leave her hand just lit one from the one she was finishing …. And she’s out lived the lot of them

Plenty roe around there @jok then when your heading out over mellerstian direction lifting with badgers there like spaniels quartering the fields on a night time 5/6 a field how there’s hares on it I’ll never know …… few whiffs of a fox around as we were walking up that’s some race you describe on the Eildon’s! Watched a litter of cubs in the banking across from old railway station this year there was a couple killed on the road and think she moved them down into Melrose rather than up and over have sent those jay feathers up north to a good friend hopefully send you a couple pics

Eldest decided on holiday she wanted to start hill walking so at the weekend got her brother away to his papas and the pigeons and got her away up the local hill easier options she wasn’t interested in Patience tested couple shoulder carry’s no tears some cross words both of ways but she was buzzing to get to the top absolutely doting on the dog this summer takes him lunch outside to have with him the works see if she keeps it up through into next year and be about time for a little whippet @jok black hill looking over towards Mosshouses will try the Eildon’s next week

Got us Scot’s wrongs Bangers we’re more likely to give away the best pup just so that when we beat it with the other we’ve better bragging rights

Lovely put together pup pal! Watch that horse doesn’t get them fingers few on here would be buzzing with that outcome lol

I’m looking forward to coming down pal ….. be interested to see how you think my dogs runs you have different opinions to others on here when you talk about different runs and different dogs I like that one thing he’ll not loose gass big ground will suit him Drovers seen a few clips of him some dog round cover as well had greyhound boy go over him before last day of the season ran like a different dog Don’t think the Scottish lads will be coming up the road embarrassed that’s for sure all about the craic anyway

Every male funeral under the age of 55 I’ve been to has been drug OD or suicide except one. Scottish Borders quite rural place this I’ve lost count how many I went to school with was one or the other suicide mostly my best pal 9 years ago lad that yoused to work for me in between and and old school friend just the other week. (Edited to say there’s been many more in between) Mental health, no access to children, drug debts, debts, trauma, women the list is endless as to why but when your in it and that thought that the only way out is not to be here must be one of the most powerful though
