  2. Very enjoyable read, you should send it to the countryman’s weekly and be sure to win a pen knife, on second thoughts don’t bovver, it’s too good for that rag, well done keep them coming.
  3. Perhaps Jamie, however, how long did he write for the Shooting news which is now the CMW, it was a conservative guess 20 years, however a bunch of flowers would have been appropriate don’t you think?
  4. I wrote for the Countryman’s weekly in the 90’s under the former editor Vic; however when David Veener took over in my opinion the magazine went downhill, Brian Plummer wrote for both the Countryman’s Weekly and the Shooting news, for over twenty years and under this new guy Dave they never even sent a memorial to his funeral, however covered the funeral in the magazine a made up story, to which I complained in writing to Venner, who phoned me, with a lame excuse.
  5. I’m thinking about going this year, Haven’t been for a few years, fed up with the Midland, they always put the terriers in the far corner, I think they are trying to tell us something?
  6. Yeah I bet it’s not a very absorbent substance, just what it’s lacking substance, it’s the cheap ink
  7. Got a good shredder if you don’t want them.
  8. Bring Back shooting News with Vic as the editor, the new guy Dave Venner is a J R Hartley merchant, I recon, the letters page in the old Shooting News was better than the whole magazine now, however, you can win a penknife for the biggest load of crap written about now, or a photo of a puppy, sitting on a pillow.
  9. what's was his name if you don't mind letting on ? if you do no bovver
  10. Shooting News use to cover lurcher terrier and such like moved away to be more like shooting times and went skint. Changed its name and has now moved backwards in my view bring back the old editor Vic.
  11. It’s a useless advertising 30 pages £2 a pop dirty old rag, fish N chip shops can’t even make any use of it, it used to be alright when it was called the Shooting news
  12. This is more informational and a far better read toboot
  13. In wonder land that might happen, but not in this country, Don is so respected by all who have had the pleasure of coming second against him, Don ruled the coursing game for many years, He was a postman, for 40 years, and DBP lost against this man as did most, I for one have never seen any evidence that he was ever beaten in competition, in his prime, Brian said on the day when you challenge the best look forward to coming second, Bless his heart Don is such a lovely gent, but as for the comments above because he is so liked unfortunately justice will be done, but not by the way it should be d
  14. That’s terrible poor man, Send him my best.
  15. You should send that in! You will definitely win a pen-knife
  16. Its weekly drooled saliva by the countryside alliance who drivel for snobs, and has been since Dave Venner became editor.
  17. in what case??????????? What page you on
  18. Tell it to the Countryside Alliance J R Hartly Well we can stop buying Magazines that don’t support us or “email them†protesting that if they don’t support us, we will stop supporting them by buying there magazine, and lobby the Countryside Alliance, who support snobs & is run by snobs talking bollocks. Did'nt he write the book about fly fishing Seriously I can understand what your saying, many shooters and farmers do look at lurcher and terrier men being pretty low in the food chain. How we can change that I don't know.
  19. Tell it to the Countryside Alliance J R Hartly
  20. I take your point perhaps you should take mine, the bottom line is Lurcher & terrier work is a dirty scar to them, you won’t find the terrier classes at the Midland Gamefair in the main arena? WHY you tell me?
  21. http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/index...c=87620&hl= start shouting
  22. EDRD might not be around forever though....then what? I think that it’s a foregone conclusion that the internet and web sites such as this, has brought about the end, or decline in subscriptions to such magazines as the CMW, and if they are to survive they certainly need to be more supportive to working dogs and dog men in particular, which up until now they are not, likewise with the Countryside Alliance that are made up from a bunch of snobs interested in shooting & fly fishing, nothing wrong with these two sports, however hunting is hunting? Who’s shouting for us
