  1. Thank you thank you,I try to cheer you grumpy feckers up when I can.
  2. A drunk staggers into a Catholic Church, enters a confessional booth, sits down, but says nothing. The Priest coughs a few times to get his attention but the drunk continues to sit there. Finally, the Priest pounds three times on the wall. The drunk mumbles, "ain't no use knockin, theres no paper on this side either!"

  3. Got to hand it to ye you did a right job on that,best of luck with it.
  4. 9 months,some weirdos in there,......I suppose I better ad I was painting the place at the time.Contract work and easy as hell but an awquard place to work.
  5. Dee,I think the army boots are moe in my price range,I'll throw them up on Google and see where they can be got.Thanks for the info.
  6. Ive seen one come down from an ivy tree a while back.Was out shooting with the rifle and thought it was a cat first off.I let it run as I dont shoot foxes unless requested to do so.He wasnt too excited seeing me either,just strolled away at a leisurly pace
  7. If you were buying new boots johnny,what would be your preference?Im trying to find the best I can afford.
  8. Good job,but try and smile next time will ye
  9. Thanks blue,were back in the game I think
  10. Well your more than wellcome to have a walk about and see if we can get ye one.Ive had 2 lads out lately,1 bloke has had 2 trips out and the other only one,it was ferkin embarrasing.We never even saw a goat and 2 days later on my own I shot 4.You can never tell if you'll get lucky or not.
  11. Right wolly looking feckers,not at all like the ones I hunt.Hed be nice mounted on the wall though,hed look well in between these two,lol
  12. Well thats bloody handy right back to the drawing board.What other recomendations have you got please.
  13. I read these type of posts with despair,sick of hearing how common it is all happening,but Im here rubing my hands together waiting to hear at last some form of pond life has been captured and given retrebution for such a sick low sneaky scumy crime.I saw one of the littermates to the mising dog brookie,Llyod has it.I sincerely hope the culprit/s are caught and severly repremanded.Best wishes to you.
  14. Is the question''do I feed them to the dogs' then the answer is yeah all the time.I have eaten a few mature females in the past myselt too.LG the goats I hunt are primarily escapees BUT they escaped over 50 years ago and are since untouched by human hands unless being dead,lol.I have to be inclined to agree with your way of thinking,goating with dogs would be rather pointless and cruel and not a real challange for a decent gutsy dog.
  15. Jamie,this is an honest query,would you say you could trust your dogs around farmed goats even though they tackle ferral goats?I know what your saying when you say you can smell them first.Many a time Ive been on one side of a ridge and I could smell the buggers over the other side.The only worry Id have is if the dog gave chase on a billy and it hit cover and say somehow it encountered a sheep in amongst the area,with its hunting mode in full swing and the sheep does a runner,I would think the chances of the dog pursueing could be high,but I really dont know as Ive not been in that situation
  16. D&n no worries mate,couldnt give a shite if you did think that anyway,lol.Good to read different views from people,but it wouldnt be something I would be comfortable doing,but I MAY NOT BE RIGHT,but i wont tempt faith all the same.NEVER KEEP QUIET UNLESS YOUR UP TO YOUR CHIN IN SHIT
  17. I arrived at the hill this morning at 8.30 and my mate the dog and the gun and I climbed,we were walking from hill to hill and even though fresh dropings were everywherenot a beast could be found.We gave up the search at 3.30 p.m.Tired and defeated we came back down,reached the car at 4.26 p.m.Still a good way to pass the day.Next Monday again we'll try,better luck next time I hope.
  18. EXACTLY MY POINT DPB,why open a hornets nest,unless you dont care about stock worrying.
  19. shes very biddable but shes not had as much work as she should have gotten,hopefully I step up the work rate this year again.Shes a dinger when shoting rabbits with the 22 and a great dog to have around you.I prefer her to most of the people I know,(doesnt that tell ye a lot about me )
  20. the goats get close to 38-40 inches and weigh a bloody lot,lol.Im off out tommorow again so hopefully I'll have a few new snaps.
  21. this one was a big ferker as was the next now the point i was making earlier,the next photo is of a domestic billy,if the dog was allowed to chase and capture ferrals would you expect him to distinguish between the two,and the landowner would make short work of any trust gained and run ye off the land.
  22. would you reckon theres a difference between the smell of a domestic goat and a ferral goats then DOGS&NATIVES?my dogs are stock broken to all farm animals but I still think youd be threading on dangerous ground leaving your dog get stuck into goats,then walk about a scatty herd of hill sheep runing all over the place.As for an arm chair hunter,Im certainly not that.Been a busy man all over x mass,lol.
