    Reminds me of the fellow who approached the prostitute. "How much to just look at it?" he asked her. "A tenner" she said. He gave her the tenner and she lifts her skirt and he goes in underneath. "What do you think of that?" she asked him, "I can't see it, it's too dark" he says "have you a match?". She gives him a match and asks can he see it now? "Oh yes, I see it now, it's lovely, really nice. Do you piss out of that?" he asks her. "Yes....Why" she replys, "You better start pissing" he says "your on fire".

    He'll probably sell all these pups because the world is full of fools who are easily parted with their money. These pups will probably look the part when adult but think about it ? Would they be good for any thing else other than looks? Why do we cross a certain breed over a greyhound in the first place? The greyhound gives us speed and thats all. The other breed must give us the desire to hunt and that "never say die" gameness that we need in a working lurcher. Will a poodle give us that? Don't fool yourself and say "yes". Was it Typp Ratcher a while back that said his pointers could cours

    Good advice being given. Remember that when you go to your aquarium / pet shops they will tell you to get the fish in to the tanks ASAP and that any species will be suitable. The more fish that die on you , the more they sell to you. So be patient.

    Have one here with Zebra Danios, Pearl Gouramis, Platys and a Plec. We use Organic Aqua once a week when doing a water change. Any one else using it?

    Not quiet sure Bailey, I think the dog just became a handful and needs work. Someone is taking him Saturday.

    I know a man looking to get rid of one at the minute. He's reared and untried.

    It wouldn't supprise me if Mr Pottfill is behind this to punish the hunting man who has many dogs. Is it true ? A price hike like that seems a lot.

    A friend of mine used to eat them. He'd put a rabbit in the pot with the curlew to take some of the strong flavour out of the bird.

    That really is work to be proud of.

    Very nice. Is it your own work?

    That Keeper sure is a very busy fellow as in none of that vermin is rotten. In this warm weather it would be rotten in a few days. Yes, he's doing a good job but hopefully pictures like that will stay out of the non shooting publics eye. We have very few Jays here in Ireland (or at least you rarely see them) but they're getting more common with the planting of trees becoming widespread. Are they easy to trap in a larson???? I always fancied getting one stuffed, they're a handsome bird, dead or alive.

    That sound very nice indeed. But should that not say 2 bottles of Guinness? 1 to drink whilst cooking the stew.

    They're sold to people who either know they're buying a stolen one or don't give a shit. Until the day when the lurcher and terrier game stops being a swap shop there will be dog thieves and their punters.

    JMHO but there's a big difference between argueing and debating. Debate is always healthy for any subject. Just out of interest to those that have shot driven hares , are they a sporting shot? I'd imagine it wouldn't be hard to get a clean kill on a hare with a shotgun. Especially with a full choke and a heavy cartridge. Another thing, there is no point in comparing the Irish Hare to the Brown Hare in Britain. I could say with confidence that there is NOWHERE in Ireland where you could see 100+ Hares in a day. Not a chance and they're rarely a pest. Those that come after them ,Yes, but the H

    I have a 4 month old albino hob for sale. PM me if interested please.

    Branches wont hold the weight of a bullock let alone a tractor. This is why the country side is full of potholes. If your terrier has bottled up it's quarry in a stop end then a large flat rock wont help the next time either. By putting all the soil you've removed by digging into the hole and then cutting sods from the ditch or the kick out from the entrance make sure you leave the dig a few inches higher than when you found it. When it settles the ground should be fairly flat. If it was a stop end then you've just shortened the tube by a foot or two. If you've badgers or rabbits in the area

    In a way I'd have more sympathy for the Cormorant than the Otter. The poor Cormorant is only in land because his food source offshore has been depleted. Although at this stage I think he needs culling. The Otter on the other hand has a plentiful food source but is very wasteful with it. To see a 7lb Brownie lieing on the bank with one bite taken out of it is sickening. And I'm talking about a wild fish. They're plentiful around here. I've seen 5 in a morning. 2 is not unusual. Although I'd never shoot one they're an efficient predator I've no sympathy for.

    Very good,

    An Italian chef once had me pestered to get him some duck shooting. I took him to a pool that never has duck on it and told him it was alright to shoot there. A week later I asked him had he had any ducks. He said "no but I shota some coots, much nicer than duck anyway".
  20. neil cooney
    Yes I'd believe it if you said Coots but I'm supprised to hear Moorhens will kill Ducklings, but you live and learn. LOL I use to give out to lads shooting Coots and Moorhens for their young dogs to retrieve, maybe now I'll say nothing.

    Nice one Micheal.
  22. neil cooney
    And would your terrier catch a muntjac????
  23. neil cooney
    Excuse my ignorance Stevieman but does this happen?? There's a place I want to rear ducks on that already has a moorhen population. I've never seen this happen.
  24. neil cooney
    The lad is just being honest BUT if he was being truly honest he'd say to himself that his dog is NOT good enough for the breed. Simple as that. I don't see any bullying or macho shit on this thread for once.
  25. neil cooney
    The Munty's will be a nightmare for the hunting man. Many's a pack here in Ireland has draft hounds from England where Muntjac are proving very hard to break hounds too.
