As you probably know,.. there is, at the moment, an absolute profusion of traditional style Break Back Rat Traps on offer. The Pest Control industry are continually trying to find, the perfect Rat Trap? Most of the items on offer are made from Plastic, and they all appear to work reasonably well...? Personally,.. I rate the Victor Break Back Trap above most others... Perhaps, to the modern pester, these genuine old style traps appear to be a wee bit old fashioned... Whatever,...they are great wee tools,...and far more versatile than one might suspect...?

Aye, you are 100% correct Fred? There ARE places in the UK where good quantities of conies could be taken,. .but,.. those big bag days, are possibly destined to be,.. a thing of the past...? My own feelings are that I have personally killed 'more than enough ' quarry .. This is why, we did not hit the 100 rabbit day on that recent foray,....the truth is, the rabbits were available , but I confess to not playing my part and assisting the other lads very much...I'm sure my behaviour was noted..? I used to be a relentless hunter, and no amount of rabbits, hares or deer was ev

Hi , yes, I favour the herding based lurcher hybrids,.. I find them easy to school, and I understand their often curious mind set...? I don't have many photos of my earlier Lurchers and Longdogs,...my own abysmal lack, of any PC Security cost me dear,...and its all over now..? Life goes on though,...who needs the photos, when you have the memories, eh..?

Hi Levigsp,.. yes, I like to use a lurcher for as many different tasks, as I can,...possibly I am just a bit mean, and want my money's worth?

I once went to a large garden and the owner must have purchased twenty or more 'Sonic Mole Repellers'...? He must have shopped around, because there were several different types... They were emitting various hums and amazing whirring sounds.. His garden looked like Santa's Fairy Grotto!? The worst thing about these useless items is,...you have to be very successful in order to pay for the customer's idiocy and expensive financial outlay,... The client rarely admits to his costly folly, and invariably states, "Oh we are fairly pleased with them".. I often think,.

Cracking bitch that,...would suit me reet good..?

Both Bilko and Blue Peter were producers of some fabulous racing whippets.. I had good honest bitches out of them both.... Fecked them all up on the Hares,....I was told, but I wouldn't listen.? Love to go back to those carefree days,....rabbiting on the Saturday, and racing on the Sunday?

Hi Sam, I am certainly no photographer...I have an ancient Nikon camera, and I just keep on clicking away,... living in hopes of a victory?

? I've mostly kept jukels for the ferreting/netting job, and I try to keep the dogs nice and quiet, and well in control of their emotions... I rarely attend lurcher shows or Game Fairs, but at the ones I have visited, the racing or (stimulated coursing as my old pal Daergi used to call it ?) the frenzied barking and frequently manic behaviour, of both dogs and their owners,.. reminded me of that crazy Fly Ball carry on, at Crufts...? Racing and Hunting, are obviously different disciplines and I've enjoyed participating in both,...but, I know which path I would always choose...?

Beautiful Pup?

No of course not,...? When I handled my first Talpex, I was bemused by its action, I did not comprehend how it worked, and I gave my first ones away...Luckily my pal from Wales persevered with the tool, and told me what a great mole trap this is,... I soon learned not to dismiss things solely because they were new, and I was dumb....?

Now, that is what I call a bushing terrier....really nice thing...?

You are spot on there Tank?

Yes, I have been legal for the last 30 years,...the rabbit control business has been a good Mistress to me?

Its no matter,...it is of no consequence,.. cos, them as knows, knows, and them as don't know, don't fecking matter.?

Yes, you are right F....and I have moved on and made something of my life... However, you only ever encountered a broken man,.. a refugee from a war zone, created by his own illogical jealousy and ego,.. Trust me Brother, that verminous coward travelled to the Far North for a reason,....and it wasn't to write books?

In the scheme of things, a Warble has its good points, whereas that plagiarising grey-eyed ghoul, had none?
