  5. Been right through every drawer for the record book for that year I travelled with big Pie..September 1995, the dog he had then, a black dog, was called Rum....hope this helps..Im sure that one of the dogs he had, could be this one, was bred off Ardkinglas Mick.. Thanks for this Bill, very helpful indeed. I have a few photos that I've accumulated, if no-one has any objections I'll find them and post them, but you've probably already seen them birddog. This makes interesting reading Bill, looks like Rum was not a bad dog at all... No the bitch Birddog posted which started the th
  6. Never saw it on matie..Dont think it was related, not sure....talked to a few lads who did see it on, and they said it was the most over rated dog ever..Best male lurcher imo at that time apart from the assassin, that I saw on, was Billy Mercels Paddy
  7. Gin was a darker brindle than Thorn (the assassin dog) I may have a picture, if I can find it you can have it..racking my brains now, Im sure she was out of Gingers Nance..if so, she was not out of Thorn, but, was related to him. Like I say, I tried to buy her for her breeding, had a dog lined up that I was going to put to her and keep a bitch pup,,
  8. I was sure Gin was out of Storm, could be wrong, its a while ago, sure Storm cam from Minshaw stuff, agai, I could be wrong..I tried to buy that Gin bitch years ago, if Kev can see Scotchy, he will remember what I offered for her....Jan seems to have collated quite a bit of useful info on the lines... Stop press...no, Gin was out of the assasin, thats why I wanted her..I think
  9. Not off the top of my head, but he was a decent runner, I travelled more with Big Pies mate Ginger Alderton.. Keeps..does this bitch go back to Pauls first cross? Page from my records book of a month when I went out with Pies dog..

  11. well aye man, it's canny like, ta muchly cp and she gives them non peds a race as well, you will for sure mate she's got the brindle dog in docherty's book twice in her pedigree, apparently he was mated to his daughter if that jogs anything mate If you mean Thorn, ( The Assassin), yeah I knew the dog, not well, but my mate had a match with it, and got beat !! LOL !! A top class dog, and this was before the Saluki Hybrid became popular. Cheers. Thorn was half brother to one of my bitches, (bred him to her at one point) he was truely a phenomenal dog, he did get beat in a match

  15. What's the name of this dog Romany? Your dog is coming on very well birddog, simply beautiful. Hi Hon.. She is called Sophie..might not be related now Ive seen what that bitch was bred from..
  16. Like I say the Leyland lion was about 1933, but dont hink that one is that old, could be an L type, more the 501s I have a picture of one of the ones we did up and used for weddings, films etc..
  17. Some nice un there matie..I served my as a bus mechanic, worked on old Bristols but not as old as that one..did work on Leyland Lions 1933 models, bloody awkward to drive thought, the clutch was in the middle and the brake was on the right, took a bit getting used to..
  18. One of the dogs she could have in her, a while back though This bitch was smaller, a bit more wool on her, 4th generation lurcher x lurcher with mainly deeround, a touch of bob tailed collie in her..she was a phenomenal killer, and she bred for the guy who had her..she was 7 of 8 in this picture and was still going strong
  19. Its not often I swear, but....What a fucling lovely looking animal.. One thing that even the most un-accomplished person can detect in a dog, even if its not in their chosen breed is QUALITY. That bitch simply oooozes in quality..the first photo should be cut out and framed for any aspiring lurcher judge, even on not level ground..look at her front, her overall shape, length, rear angulation could be better, but shes on a hill..you have got her in exceptional condition too..well done Where do you live, would love to put my hands across her Just seen 4th picture, rear angulation what I w
