Good thread this! In my village it is just me and a few close friends/relatives that have working lurchers, everyone else are pretty much gundog people, get threats of the dogs being shot for being on the shoots 'pheasant land' in the summer and they all stare at you and whisper about you in the pub, won't even walk they're dogs in the same field as us, stuck up thier own arses imo, if shooting ever gets banned i'll laugh at the fuckers round here because they'll have nowt to do!
