  1. All is see is a collapsed tunnel mate .No sign of fesh dirt on the banks nor spade marks despite the rain .
  2. Lately their seems to be more of an obsession with the name than the dogs .Im trying to find a decent stud but am met with made up names and peds that could never of happened .One day maybe .
  3. Written of this before .We used to do a place years ago with the old boy that really got me into it .The farm was an island set in between roads that ran right around it ,We had to use the tradesmen entrance and let the lady of the house know where we were going .She is passed now and the farm sold to equestrian people .She was the most colourful women ive ever met ,from good breeding by her lifestyle and accent but boy she could swear .Her late husband was a colonel and the old boy had cut their garden for years hence the permission .We ferretted ,dug and lamped this place regular to the poin
  4. Nice ond mate ,known earths are the place for starters .
  5. For me starting young uns is everything.Hope he keeps up the work mate .
  6. Lee-in your opinion was the earth you chose the right place to get a young one a go .
  7. Lol scars like that arnt the result of just healing ,reality mate .Fair play Liam ,nice stamp .Any Parks influence there .
  8. 4.7 on the box through two layers of stone and shale then sand all the way.Experience teaches a man to start these digs at a reasonable size instead of having to chop a section down part way through.When a dogs in deep you just get on with it .They are not something to brag about as ive known shallow spots take as long but as to the quality of dog ,they need no introduction from me .Hats off to the dogs staying to be dug to i say .
  9. Lovely old pics there mate and good to see two old mates getting on still .
  10. Mole - you are making yourself look a bit silly now bud ,childish in fact .
  11. Block and beam is fine for garage floor ,weve not long done the same.Beams will be shortest span so no bounce .Building control will have no issue with the storage space and will advise on the support lintel over any opening go the storage area. Build the footings in 6 inch block therefore avoiding the need for pillars.Good luck.
  12. As soon as you mention double skin ,building control will be on it to the letter no matter the size .Far better to build what can add value and to avoid the added cost of tax just put off getting it signed off for the duration you live there .Temp buildings are only ever that and make poor dwellings tbh .
  13. They were white mate or off white maybe ,ugly feckers too.Were they the base for ebt though .
  14. Dosnt pay to leave anything special when your a collector lol. .Never turns up again .I would love a fox like that on the wall .
  15. Just out of interest Neil, do you know what the modern ebt was created from as my own memory is of a pug faced ,bow legged bull going back years that was referred to as ebt
  16. Understood Neil and as ive no experiencd of EBT whatsoever i will cloud the waters no more lol.
  17. Rob-Its staff mate ,no greater than 1/4 or preferrably 1/8.Many will disagree but most black dogs will have staff not too far back in the makeup .
  18. Wouldnt buy a dog lead off the tosser tbh .Ripped off lads proper that one .Save your money mate ,nothing in the book you wont know already even as green as you are lol.
  19. I hear ya FD, BUT in your opinion is there not more than a few lines of good working terriers out there that IF needed the same result could be got by using as an outcross ?OR, are you like some other good breeders out there, who, when they needed an outcross were too proud to ask another terrierman so used a bull type as a shortcut whilst also not having to say they used such and such's dog ? Genuine question , with no harm meant but I know of well known breeders who've done such. Neil - Ive never used a straight staff but have used bull infused stuff from a lad i know well .I take the sho
  20. To reinstate gameness is to admit youve cocked up but to maintain it is to preserve.Bull breeds have a place in this decision.
  21. How old are they in that pic mate .ive not seen terriers that slender when mature but then again im used to bigger dogs .Look ideal for the job though .
