  1. Bloody good dogs from what i know,had a half x and she was all i ever wanted in a running dog but lost her at 11 months old but she'd taken a good bit of game in her short life,her brother was the best ferreting dog iv'e ever seen work and i know a few with them and they do all that's asked and a bit more.Not a dog for the novice and some will proper look after you if bother finds you out in the field,if the genuine acd's then go for it but don't expect to walk it and then lock it away in a run for the rest of the day as that's when your troubles will start..
  2. Maybe they lay mid tube and the terrier pushes them to the wet stop end..?

    No and leaving this be now as it isn't good for the public eye and iv'e said to much for it to be any good for any of us really...
  4. Seen a real funny one of a child trying to say Black currant,but ends up missing out the rra bit..?..

    My eyes tell me no lies so when i looked into a pit on a shoot and saw 4,000 partridges dumped in it,i knew what i was looking at wasn't due to my old LSD experimental days.. Most gun's won't have a good day unless they've killed something, like i say trespassers into the countryside if killing is all there there to do... If i pay someone so i can be a c*nt,does that make it ok for me to be a c*nt?...

    And most guns on pegs are feckwits who can't tell the difference between a Thrush and a Redwing,more than enough are just trespassers in the countryside and are only in the fields to kill stuff.Countrymen they will never be and just because they throw money into a pot don't make them special cases as like i say most shouldn't be there.This money that's being chucked into shooting,they sorted the waste of game problem out yet or are they just carrying on like the last few years and dumping it ?,as long as the guns get their shots so all is good eh,ffs ?...
  7. Power cut or forgot to pay the bill?.
  8. Live on Jerry,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,as a cracking bit of float fished perch bait....?
  9. Iv'e owned a wolfhound and when i saw that last pic i thought it had some wolfhound blood in it,fare to say not just the bone but the over all build and shape looks very wolfhoundy.The bone on it's legs looks to heavy for deerhound imo,but what ever it is it's a nice looking youngster,well done on giving the poor thing a grand life in front of it and best of luck to...
  10. Semolina,spotty dick and custard with a skin on it and deffo pink blamonge were all awesome in my junior school,
  11. I remember the pink parrafin van,the rag and bone man and the milk man who'd chuck loads of us kids on his cart and let us deliever the bottles for him and we'd all share a pint with the biggest kid getting the cream top..?
  12. I used to sell my pack lunch for the price of ten fags then beg a sarnie or two from the geek kids..
  13. roof joists,width of shed ,just thought it a bit odd to have a pic of a shed that's different than the one your showing folks.
  14. Don't mean to sound a nob and i'm picking but that last pic is of a different shed than the new one you built..??.
  15. First thing to ask is does your lad have a tool kit and does he know how to use one?,he'll be needing one and know how to use one with a old landy..
  16. The engine unlike the ones in the ranger are ok as land rover only get the block and put oil pump etc on them selves,the transits that had that engine all got a recall on dodgy oil pumps but the rangers didn't and plenty are blowing up due to poor quality fans on the oil pump.Look on any ford ranger forum and your'll see a lot are going bang at 50,000 + or just when warrenty runs out and ford know about the pump issues but are doing feck all for ranger owners,no way would i ever own a 2012 _ late 2015 ranger no matter how little it cost as it will go bang one day...
  17. Iv'e had old ford rangers for the last few years,for work (bulk bag,cement and mixer on the back no probs),for dogs and to either tow a boat or i put my little rib on the roof and chuck the engine etc in the back.Easy to work on,i had over 35 mpg out of my old mk1 one a motorway run and cheap bits and there worth the best part of a grand in spares if you break them right...Drove to kent yesterday and bought one as i wrote my old one off a month or so ago and happy enough with it,just check for back axle whine and head gasket issues and some mk3's had iffy 5th gear issues but they sorted that w
  18. I personaly think that terriers or earth dogs in such conditioned condition will suffer when the going gets tough for a long time,i like a bit of substance to a fit earth dog as you just don't know how long it's going to down there and in mid winter in a wet cold earth that dog won't last but it'll still get the blame for jibbing or dying..To me it's not my thing in any way,but your happy with it so all's well bud.....
  19. He designed that scaffold himself and he allways said he'd only fall once from it,he built a mine shaft in his garden just so he could learn how to do it..?.The world lost a gem when he went King for sure..
  20. I thought dog fox was skinnier than that,mind you i was right about him being a total gob shite bellend though...?..
  21. A great man at what he could do and what he knew.but feck doing what he did for a living eh...?
  22. I did that one a few pages back,but a very funny joke anyway..?...
  23. Do well old fella and may the next hundred be just as fun....

    Finches

    Cold drafts are what kills birds,so have a section out the wind where they can roost with a roof over their heads and most british bred finches will be ok outside over winter,i had scaffold netting i'd pull down over the front of my aviaries if the wind got up and that lets light in but sure blocks the wind out.Rats did it for me last winter in my flights and i'm having a year or so off birds but my garden sure ain't the same without an aviary in it ?..
