I bet this chap would be great to bring digging. He could put foxes to ground regularly and into the exact earth you wanted too. There'd be no need for hounds.

LOL, and you have the nerve to say I'm fond of a drink, LOL. You openly admit to being fond of taking mind bending stuff and lately I'd say you've been taking a lot of it, LOL. You do that much back tracking you're moon walking like Micheal Jackson. So let's get this straight. You can make a fox go in the direction you want it to go by shooting dust shot in front or to it's left or to it's right, LOL, that's funny. Lately you called a good honest man a rapist and a pedophile when you had got his name completely wrong and then there was the very passionate ,from the bottom of your heart

Maybe it's just with me but I thought most women called themselves that, LOL.

All the Wellington manufacturers have us by the balls because they know we need them but the truth is that nowadays all Wellington boots are bad. I wear wellies a few times every single day and how come a pair for 15 euro can last me 8 months (but I wouldn't like to wear them for 5 hours rough shooting) but a pair of 150 euro wont last 5 months. Personally I think most expensive brand makers think we all stand at a peg shooting driven birds and the makers of the cheap brands think we mope around a yard mucking out a few ponies but nobody seems to make a good wearing affordable boot for those

LOL, no I couldn't. I kept the kids and that might have traumatized them, LOL.

I'd laugh if a hare jumped up and took your lurcher on a right merry dance with the ring on it's collar. You'd shite yerself, LOL.

I don't like the word trophy preferring the word mount. 1. A full Irish Hare that my lurcher lifted after been bested by the same Hare 3 times before. 2.The largest piece I have is a 16 point Red Deer skull that some arsehole shot from a vehicle and left to rot in a field. One brow tyne is around 16 inches long. 3.Less. 4. My favourite mounts are masks etc. that have been accounted for by hounds or dogs and it's rarely done nowadays. 5. ALL hunting should be with conservation in mind. Most of it is. 6 or 7. I have an 8 point Sike head shot by a friend and a badger mask

You're spot on, the book having been written by a hound man who probably wouldn't know his terrier types or he was told Border / Lakeland and just remembered Border. But those terriers are of the type that were regularly called Border / Lakelands, even over here in Ireland. As for his dress sense ? Most old farmers and hunting men around here still dress like that. Not as up to date as track suits and Dunne Stores wellies but probably more comfortable to be out in in all weathers.
-
Thanks Rebel. Dubious description because the Border looked like a Border 100 years ago but if the author says they're Borders then who am I to argue. But my guess would be they're more Border / Lakeland. JMHO.

Pity that Liam, it's always something that is in the back of my mind .

I actually thought there were laws regarding foraging ,especially when it comes to fungi ?

Nice pic Rebel, any info ?

Plummer Lurcher, he said they'd be pure bred before he died. Or is it a Wheaten ? -
Pat The Rat. (This topic will now disappear as it does every time I mention Pat, but it stays up when the trolls he tells what to say slag me about my marriage break up and call me an alcoholic etc. Very funny really.)
-
So to defend your stupidity you revert to personal insults. I've never drank rum in my life and this recent calling me an alco from a couple of trolls comes from a grass in the mid lands who wouldn't even know if I drink or not . Me an alco, LOL, you need money to be an alcoholic, LOL. Back to the topic. Stop End you have a habit of coming on here as well as in to other lads yards and tell them what in your opinion is wrong with their terriers etc. But then you come on here and admit to a very stupid rookie mistake. Just in case there would be a novice reading your lies and actually m

working a fresh terrier after ones already been in there and on for a few hours and dug at isn't really fair in this day and age expecially after a dog was giving it a good go. Even though some needs must, I think the only time really to try another after, is to see if your dog was not up for it. That's rubbish. A terrier that can go into a place and locate game that's already been worked for a while and maybe pushed another terrier out and has now moved or buried itself is one of the hall marks of a great terrier. Terriers that go in, locate and stay while dug too are quiet common. But i

Allymoore, Just my opinion but I think "Northsider" has written that his line had become too close, he looked outside and was offered Tip to trial and breed from if it suited. The qualities required that would show up at trial would be....Work, Work and bloody Work, whether he would produce had to be a gamble when bred into a different working line. I don't think that there were any genetic links to Tip. He produced and the rest is history. Tip is in the lines of only a small number of lines in Cork. Some kennels prefer it this way. Northside would be able to give a better answer I am

How long ago was that Stonewall ?

Load of pollacks if you ask me.

Plenty of sloes in that pic and although fruit seems plentiful this year around here sloes seem scarce. I often made sloe gin and to be honest it's too sweet and sticky for me, pure gin being nicer. I've never drank vodka but would sloe vodka be less sweet ?

So they broke at their weak points. A one piece seasoned hazel thumbstick is a very sturdy tool.

Good job Stonewall, don't like to see nylon or leather leads on a dig myself, but have to admit I haven't seen those clips either. -
