  1. To use a horse anology in reference to dogs; If I wanted a Derby winner; I’d get a non-ped whippet. If I wanted a Grand National winner; I’d get a deerhound cross If I wanted something to pull a milk cart ? I’d borrow my mates white dog, in his own words , it pulls all day ! Cheers.
  2. Fully under control……unlike your dogs ! LOL ! Cheers.
  3. You have to learn how to control your animals ! LOL ! Cheers.
  4. That’s the trouble with “point and slip” dogs, pulling all the time. Cant be doing with that, dogs need at least a modicum of discipline. I blame the owners! LOL ! Cheers.
  5. As you know, mate, I’m a keenly interested in the JFK assassination. Ive been to the Book Depository, stood on the grassy knoll and behind the picket fence, looked down on to Elm street from the triple overpass, and actual sat in the “snipers nest” on the 5th floor ! It’s the one event that I’m inclined to believe is a conspiracy; I. e. a conspiracy between two or more people to commit a crime. Will there be any earth shattering revelations in the material that’s being released ? I doubt it. But we can hope ! LOL ! Cheers.
  6. I’d never heard of the old lad before today, but what a hero ! Shot down four times, one time his ‘chute didn’t open and he landed in a tree ! Him and his squadron downed over 90 enemy aircraft in a week. During the Battle of Britain, he was flying five sorties a day, at the age of 21 ! A hero, a true hero ! Cheers.
  7. If I can handle 75lb , 29” of deer/grey, I think I could handle a plodder coursing bred ! LOL ! Cheers.
  8. No, it’s fast for a lurcher but not as fast as a good class non- ped. Cheers.
  9. Carefull mate, you’ll give my protege mC another clutcher with statements like that ! LOL ! Cheers.
  10. Last two dogs, a teckel and a deer/grey, were gifted. One before that, a deer/grey, that I travelled to Manchester for, the lad wanted £250 but when he found out we had mutual friends, he insisted I only give him £200, then he gave me £20 back as “luck money”. One before that , a beddy type lurcher , was £120, best money I’ve ever spent on a dog, gave me years of work. The ones before that, a Doberman , deerhound X’s and various Salukis were all gifted. I never paid for any of the whippets I’ve had as they were bred by friends and family. So there’s plenty men will place
  11. Three course meal for a tenner at my local pub . But I don’t like sitting with a load of old people ! LOL ! Cheers.
  12. What about pensioners? Cheers.
  13. Lambrini???? I’m on the export vodka, and when I go to meet the players and staff it had better be Chrystal and Bollinger ! LOL! Cheers.
  14. Cheers mate, you’re a gentleman! Cheers.
  15. I’ve waited since 1969 for this lads, so forgive me if I’m a bit emotional ! LOL ! Cheers.
  16. Big Dan Burn with my grand nephews, If we win this, and there’s a long way to go, he’ll go down in Geordie folklore ! I’m not counting my chickens too soon, I’ve had too many disappointments with the Toon ! Cheers.
  17. My nephew and his mates went down yesterday and are coming back Monday. They sent me videos from the train, looked a good jolly boys outing ! The fans are banned from Trafalgar Square because of some pro Hamas march, so they were all in Covent garden at 9 this morning singing their heads off ! I’ll be finished everything by 3 o’clock and settled in the recliner, “Moscow Mules “ at the ready and fried chicken , ready for the build up and the game. Celebrating or drowning my sorrows ? Who knows ? Cheers.
  18. Stop the pensioners winter fuel payment. Tax the Farmers and compulsory purchase orders on their land. Deny the WASPI women their compensation after calling for it in opposition. Cut the overseas aid budget. Increase defence spending. Cut benefits. Cancel NHS England. No, not the nasty Tory’s , This is New Blue Labour. Doing everything that they opposed in opposition, now they are in power. Cheers.
  19. Just another step in what J.D. Vance said in an interview yesterday as the “civilisation suicide” of Western Europe…… Cheers.
  20. I’ve never understood people who are breed/kennel blind and are always running down other types of dogs and hunting. Ive travelled the world to see other types working , different quarry, different grounds , etc. When I’ve been in , say , Australia, I went out with running dogs, terrier’s, hounds, and without exception the people there were every bit as interested in our types of dogs and hunting. Made a lot of friends and had a lot of invites by travelling to meet people and have people here. Cheers.
  21. Yeah, forecast for frost tomorrow. The seeds I’ve planted are in the greenhouse and under extra glass, so I’m hoping they’ll be ok . Cheers.
  22. I’ll be 73 by next season but there’s still a bit life in me yet ! LOL ! Ive just had three hours at the allotments turning over raised beds, planting seeds, and building a netted bed for my brassicas ; Cheers.
  23. And you can add a good few miles more when mC takes you on one of his route marches ! LOL ! Cheers.
  24. The Scottish lads will walk 500 miles…. I’ll get me coat . Cheers.
