  1. Talking of snow ,we are set to get a bit on Saturday that will last for the week ,apparently ,hopefully .
  2. Yes mate ,and set to get busier too .Plenty about .
  3. Waiting on scaffold on a job so popped out with the terrier to try a few places that need doing .The first 3 earths absolutely stank but the dog ,bless her said no .You have to trust the dog in these circumstances ,they really do know best .Seen a few terriermen get aggitated over this but onwards it was .Had the dog on a lead as all sensible terriermen should . Let the dog mark before choosing to let her off .Anyway all the well known spots were blank but i had lamped this last night and saw 4 so they were here all right .A bit of loose soil caught my eye in the middle of a big field so made
  4. Looks like a hernia to me .Stomach ruptured through the lining .Probably caused by getting hung up at some time .
  5. Proper job there Keeps ,fit looking dogs all of em .
  6. Just pop down your local bellman and flint mate ....................................Cracks me up that one .
  7. What you can do Ian as a favour to me and others i suspect is get rid of that dating site that pops up between the posts .Got myself into a mountain of grief by accidentally clicking on it when scrolling down now the missus thinks im at it all over the place .Yes theres a funny side but theres a massive down side i can tell you .
  8. Fortunately for me mate ,this site or any other is not the reason i live so if that event happened ,so be it .
  9. So does that mean a whole new forum then with all new subsections ,just ban the twats Ian as and when and trouble makers like Millet .Seems like hes after your job mate ,want to watch him.I would say it will go down hill if you did this like other forums that have tried the same .The banter gets stale,people are a bit edgy about what they write and the messers cant be taken to task . Your choice obviously and maybe im wrong , but think about why you first took this on mate ,freedom of speech and all that ,a place to say what you want when you want not like any other forum where they moderat
  10. e. What the feck is that going to Achieve.It will only stop the Dog Retrieving altogether.Never heard such Bollocks in all my Life ........................Then stick around mate ,this place is full of it
  11. If you are only half hearted then the answer is no .Its not a matter of having to dig the dog out but wanting to .If it does start and you arnt 100% on the idea then give it away to someone that is .
  12. Fair play mate but to be honest nothing anyone of my mates or mysef wouldnt do .It would more of a talking point if they didnt . Hope you backfilled properly though .
  13. Shave your head and get a few tattoos mate or you will never enter that pup to ground , lol.There are a few lads out there that are past masters at starting a pup .The key is patience without which you may lose faith in your pup .There are many that say a dog shouldnt see much til its over a year but there are also plenty that start them younger .The key is not too much ive found ,leave them wanting and winning .The type i keep are slow starter ,ive learnt that, but i know a few strains that benefit from an early look ie wheeler .Not a great lover of the hole ending thing as i believe this f
  14. M6 you say ,what junction ,lol.Good on you mate ,sound
  15. Call out last night, could i please have a look for a fox thats killed 23 chickens an hour ago .Arrived and went straight out to the fields out the back and sure enough theres charlie eating something at about 100 yds in the first field .No squeak here as theres a bank behind and well confident off bipod .Rabbit Controller was the lamper and i shot this fox off pod at a paced 103 .Sure enough he was eating what was left off a Rhody red .Took it back to the farmer who had seen the shot from his top windows and now the whole family were out to have a look .He showed me the shed where they were
  16. Pity you dont live closer as you could come out and impart some of that knowledge im always thirsty for .Would be great to meet up with one of the real old boys thats clearly done it all.You could show us how exactly one would go about faking a dig , Shame really as could use a tea boy .Messer
  17. Tidy dogs there mate .Always good to hear that first opening bay .
  18. FFS theres some twats in this game .No wonder theres some shite about .That is a decent dig ,maybe not the ten footer but thats for you to decide .Takes a proper man to take a dog to a place like this in the first place knowing its on the cards .Well done .
  19. ............................Like i said thats one way but certainly not the only way .Those 50 years havent taught you much really mate have they ,obviously patience is not a strong point .You do your thing and l'll do mine . I'm guessing your the sort that talks a lot but never has a dog to back it up .No need to reply as i cant be bothered to answer .
  20. No mate ,knobs are spotted a mile off to be honest
  21. That run down tells me you have not listened to the advise given you by shooters out there doing it .No need to elaborate ,you know what i mean .
  22. Mate ,dont beat yourself up .Sounds to me like the dog had an underlying problem anyway .Shock is what does it normally but the signs are everything you first looked for .I do nothing different to you if its any consolation ,only bringing in a severe case of a beating.The position it was in in death would tell me more why it died but i wont press this as you are rightly up set and so you should be . RIP Blackie .
