  2. We had the same trouble as mighty celt, we were out yesterday for 6 hrs, in two different valleys, the first place is always hit and miss, tried several places with no one home. Second place is generally always garunteed that Charlie is home somewhere, we tried several more places all likely places and nothing was home, there wasn't even much sign of any either?? We recon the midnight cowboys have been round these parts ?!!! Even though the farmer hadnt seen them?? Cheers Oli
  3. Great thread people, best I've read on here for a while!! A friend of mine was walking his dogs back through our local woods which are part of a large estate, he walked along a path which I had walked a few times myself, it is partially covered by large trees and is fairly dark even on a bright day. The path comes around a sweeping bend with high 6-8 foot banking on one side and a low 3-4 feet wall (with only one gap)bordering the woods on the other, as he passed the only gap in the wall he said that he noticed two figures walking on in front, even one of his dogs pulled towards them,

  11. yeah peroxide, i got it from a mate who goes into his local chemist and you can get it over the counter? apparently women use it to die their hair??!! ive not heard of hibiscrub?? would like to know a bit more about it myself cheers oli
  12. The best thing I have found for punched wounds is a good warm salty water wash out then I use Dry Cow Mastitis tube, and find that the small nosed applicator gets right to the bottom of the wounds, and being an anti biotic it seems to clean them up really fast. Does anyone else use them?? Also aquired some peroxide near end of the season, I didn't get to use it, but a friend of mine does straight away after the dig and it is supposed to froth up and clean out any dirt etc from wounds?? Might give it ago next season? Alot of good advise on this topic Cheers Oli
