  1. You’re under surveillance……. Cheers.
  2. I’m guessing olives, hummus, and black truffle infused olive oil ? Cheers.
  3. I’ve consistently said that the NON-PED WHIPPET is the fastest dog in the world over a sprint distance, 150-200 yards. Now, you will come back and say “but the non-ped whippet has greyhound in it “, and I’d agree, but as you’ve said in the past that a coursing bred will beat a greyhound in the run up, that should be immaterial. If you’re not just on a wind up and honestly believe a coursing bred will beat a non-ped whippet over a sprint distance, I cant see the point in having the conversation. Cheers.
  4. Why would I bring a whippet ? I haven’t had a whippet since the early 70’s, I’ve run deerhound types for the last 20 years ! Cheers.
  5. A $100,000 falcon, and me shitting myself in case it starts baiting and damages itself ! Cheers.
  6. Hamed Ghunaim, who made the film “Hounds Of Arabia”, gave me a dvd of himself and Sheik Maktoum flying their falcons on bustards. A pal gave me a dvd of him flying his Harris hawk on bolted rabbits. Worlds apart, but equally exciting and enjoyable ! Cheers.
  7. Seen a couple of golden eagles when Northernlite invited me to run white hares in the Cairngorms, and there was one circling just a few feet above my head. Cheers.
  8. Placebo effect, maybe? Cheers.
  9. To be honest, I think there is far more good natured banter and a lot less bitterness on here now than there was years ago ; I can’t remember the last “off liner” ! LOL ! Cheers.
  10. I’m reading that as “you’re no educated person”. Colloquially I’d say “ inter ma’afi muk” ! LOL ! Cheers.
  11. Daffs, crocus and snowdrops out here today . Decided to take a chance and sow some peas, sugar snaps, green beans and runner beans in the greenhouse; Cheers.
  12. My pal sent this deerhound up to Scotland to work with an eagle on hare and fox; Cheers.
  13. Phil , you’re a man of my own vintage, and I understand you’ve tread the same paths in the Middle East as I have, and I hold you in great respect, not only as a dog man, but a fellow traveller. Salam Alaykum ya habibi.
  14. This it what it’s all about to me, mate; not huge slips, not ten minute courses, not huge bags of rabbits…..it’s about enjoyment, having a relationship with your dogs, getting out and enjoying yourself; Cheers.
  15. Don’t know why the pics come up three times, phones being a c**t ! Cheers.
  16. I got that whippet for a tenner at a boot sale, also got this pair of fighting cocks for £16 at the same sale; Cheers.
  17. The deerhound cross doesn’t seem too impressed ! Cheers.
  18. Got myself a whippet mC; Very quiet, doesn’t eat much, will be more of a pet and companion than a worker . Cheers.
  19. Whilst I’m unhappy at some of my countrymen supporting a dictator and eulogising the benefits of Russia, I’m quite happy in the knowledge that none of them are actually emigrating there ! LOL ! Vashe zdorov’ye.
  20. The Russians have released the cause of death; “sudden death syndrome”. Yeah, I guess a bullet to the back of the head could be classed as “sudden death” ! LOL ! Cheers.
  21. I was always told that Saudi Arabia was the safest place in the world; you could walk around with £1,000,000 in a carrier bag and no one would try to steal it . Then I got to wondering why so many thieves were getting their hands chopped off ! LOL ! Cheers.
