If they are hare coursers, what the hell are they doing with guns ? Armed trespass carries far stiffer penalties than coursing, and with coursing there's allways the possibility of getting away with a warning. Carrying a firearm means helicopters, armed response squad and "you're nicked son" ! Sounds like a bit of sensationalism from a pissed off farmer who thinks the police aren't doing enough, and press that are more than happy to go along with it ! Cheers.

I remember being given a great pair of sheepskin slippers in New Zealand around 30 years ago. They were probably the most comfortable things I'd ever had on my feet ! Anyhow, I decided to have a walk into town and have a pint in the local pub. I was just about to enter the door, when to my horror, I realised I was still wearing the slippers ! I thought "f**k it, they'll just think I'm an eccentric Englishman." I neadn't have worried, the place was full of farmers, musterers, bushmen and Maoris, some in wellies, some in flip flops, some in bare feet, no one batted an eyelid at my

Don't tempt fate, my old pal ! Bosun is usually as easy as an old pair of slippers, but he's flexing his "red button" index finger at the moment ! ?? ! Cheers.

The internet is a bit like virtual reality, I'm sure some people start believing their own bullshit ! Maybe they just need an ego boost, or to get the approval of their peers, who knows ? As long as it's harmless, we shouldn't really care ? Cheers.

How gauche ! Money should be safely tucked away in a numbered Swiss bank account , not hidden under the mattress, and taken out now and again to try and impress the gullible ! ? ! Cheers.???

Simple really; just pm a mod, and ask to have your account deleted. Cheers.

Now I think about it, they did seem tall, can't remember any really under 24". One thing stuck in my mind, I asked him if he preferred smooth or feathered, and he said it made no difference whatsoever ever to him, a good Saluki was a good Saluki, irrespective of coat or colour. Cheers.

Politics has allways been Machiavellian, it used to be "little black books" were kept, with all the indiscretions, gossip and tittle tattle. Now its indiscreet texts, whatsapps, face book comments, tweets, they are all collected and secreted away for whenever they may be needed to ruin someone who doesn't toe the establishment line ? Cheers.

Sand slugs, slop and slips, no wonder I'm confused ! ? ! Cheers.

Cheers.

Worked with a lot of yanks around the world, and they all seem to favour top end American tools, Milwaukee, Snap-On, Proto, etc. All quality made and reliable brands. Cheers.

Just had an hour out with the pup, couldn't ask for a better day for a walk around the fields; not too cold, not a cloud in the sky , grounds perfect for a run ! If only she were a month or two older ! But I'll get a slip or two before the season ends ! Cheers

Nothing wrong with taking your time sourcing a pup, and doing your homework. But if you really want a pup, just get one. An experienced dog man should be able to overcome any problems encountered along the way ? Cheers.

I used to trencher feed mine when I had a few dogs, but now I only have the deer cross and my daughters chihuahua I feed them separately, not because of food aggression, but in case the deer cross pup swallows the chihuahua by mistake ! ? ! Cheers.

Don't know if it's relevant, but my hens and ducks came back on the lay about two weeks ago. Pleasantly supprised, wasn't expecting it for another month or more. Cheers.

LI 150; eventually fitted with a GT 200 engine, bored out to 225 cc, 15 tooth sprocket , five plate clutch, Ancilloti exhaust, Amal monobloc carb for everyday use, Wal Phillips fuel injector for whenever any fool wanted a race ! ? ! Just for the scooter jocks. Back in the 60's by the way Cheers.

Lived the life, mate ? Cheers.

You're someone I would have taken the bait at back then, but now, I just smile indulgently at and move on ? Cheers.

I left the site some years ago, because I felt I was getting far to involved in arguments. I was going through some life changing events in my life. I asked Bosun to delete me, but he said he would just suspend my account until I felt I wanted to rejoin. Seven years later, I asked him to reinstate my account, which he did, and I came back on with a totally different mindset. Now, I don't want to get involved in arguments, I'd rather have a laugh on some threads, or get involved in good threads and give my experiences in the hope they might make good reading. Either way, take wha

Now stop this, Stoppy, ! ? ! It looks like you might have some grudging respect for me ! And we both know we can't be having that !!! ? !!! Cheers.
-
Yes, I agree, I'm an inveterate name dropper, but the names I drop are people I actually know ? cheers.
-
The thing is , my young friend, I wouldn't bullshit you......? Cheers.
-
For fucks sake lads, stop "name dropping ". ! ? ! Those blokes wouldn't give you or me the time of day ! Just work and enjoy your dogs, don't worry about "hero's" We can't all be "legends" ! ?? ! Cheers.

You'll get to this age, no problem, if you listen to your elders, grasshopper! ?! Cheers.

It's in your blood Don, I'm in my 70th year and when I got the last running dog put down , I asked myself if I'd be happy just walking the house cur down to the allotment ? The answer was no ! Im happier bringing on a pup and looking forward to the future, far more than sitting watching day time telly and wondering what might have been ! ? ! Cheers.
