  7. he did panic a bit, the thing is the birds were in a field next to his cottage,and the lane leads to a farm, these lads wer,nt meant to be there,and when you least expect something to happen thats when it will,you cant be at home all the time,and he only has one neigbhour,it would diffecult to get onto the field, there is only one way in, but if they got in that would be that,all birds would have gone, it sickens me that these oppotunist scum turn up, i had it here once with irish travellers, its only that fact i did,nt back down,called plod, told them if they came back,id use reasonable force
  8. a friend of mine who lives, not that far away, was feeding his game birds,when a silver peugot 406 pulled up, 2 lads got out and asked about his birds, my friend played it down and said they wer,nt what they thought, these lads knew the crack and would,nt go, until the big dog reared up, he didn,t get the reg no, not that it would have helped,but lads be on your guard,this was yesterday,and resulting in him getting rid of all his birds, aint it sad when you cant keep something you like without some one wanting to steal it from you.

  15. about 30yr ago some lads were getting stick over hunting,with the enfield chase,the scum came into panshanger park and caused mayhem, threatened me, took me reg no, i were given a list of names and addresses,i lived in hertfordshire at time,we were going ratting at he time in keysoe, i kept all the rats,and one night did a raid on said antis house,poking 40 , deads rats in her letter box, and catapaulted her windows,about a week later i were up a tree,pruning it and the fella came out and read from the newspaper about the incident, i crapped meself and nearly fell out the tree,the local police

  19. dont know if im to late in posting this or if its been posted, found out today that don southerd took his life after battling cancer, met him a few times and coursed with him, didnt really know he was that ill, rip don, a pure gentlman,
  20. i dont think it matters how well you know your pack and the country, if they decide to go, thats it,you may have a job to stay with them,no matter who you are,many good huntsman have come to grief, you just never know what will happen, no two hunting days are the same, accidents do happen,all you can do is be as vigilant as poss,not just with hounds,running dogs and terriers,i have hunted hounds and whipped in, if you have no access to land they cross you be fooked, if you cant get in front of them same, hounds in killing cry are hard to stop, i just hope all is well with these lads,dd.
  21. well i think its time the arspca backed off, after the heythrop case, hope these lads with them hounds dont get into to much shite.
  22. i asked me old mate ernie years ago about putting in shallots "on the shortest day at the wain of the moon",he said,well i missed that so i put them in on the next wain, in january and they came, dont ask me why on the wain of the moon,maybe theres less chance of frost,i need to ask him when i see him,
