A guy goes to the supermarket and notices an attractive woman waving at him. She says hello. He's rather taken aback because he can't place where he knows her from. So he says, "Do you know me?" To which she replies, "I think you're the father of one of my kids." Now his mind travels back to the only time he has ever been unfaithful to his wife and says, "My God, are you the stripper from my friend's bachelor party that I made love to on the pool table with all my buddies watching while your partner whipped my butt with wet celery?" She looks into his eyes and says calmly

State of Love and Trust followed by some more of the same. I'm in a real Pearl Jam mood the last few days.

Pearl Jam - Do The Evolution Cool video by the way if anyone's interested, check it out on youtube. Animated, reminds me of some of the animated sections from the movie "The Wall" by Pink Floyd.

how to stop hounds hunting game your not after
pointer28 replied to a topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
If a fox jumps out in front of them, they'll chase it but the huntsman will never holler them onto it or blow away on the horn. Eventually when they check he'll manage to call them off. Very seldom happens though as we tend to hunt open land rather than cover where you wold expect to out up a fox. Ours are proper stud book beagles (not KC crap) bred from hare hunting stock for the last 300 years, so none of their ancestors would have been fox hunters either. -
Hi all, I'm looking for a nice light ferret box for hunting. I have a larger cat carrier that I leave them in while in the van but when I take one out I'd to have a light box or even a bag to carry around the fields. I'm in Ireland, seen some on Ebay but the postage was monstrous from the UK. Fee free to PM me.

Frank, I applaud you!! THE greatest album ever made. I remember leaving Milan one night and I stuck Dark Side Of The Moon in the CD player and just let it play through non stop. I listened to it at least 4 times and it just kept getting better and better.

Certainly not impossible, we run a pack of beagles after hares and they never bother with fox scent at all. We never encourage them to chase foxes and they never rag a fox carcass so they never associate fox scent with their job. Any failed beagles that don't suit hare hunting, we usually give to lads for hunting foxes, and they pick it up in no time once they get to rag a carcass, but they will always still hunt hares as it's what they know. -
Hi all, Anybody heading to the Game Fair at Moira, outside Lisburn this weekend?

Good thing you caught him before the 5 dogs or 2 cats. I have robins flying into my place the whole time, which I have mixed feelings about. I'm delighted that there are songbirds about and the garden is alive with wlidlife. But, the dirty feckers keep shitting all over my house!

She had trouble with a rouge rabbit God those rouge rabbits are a real nuisance, far worse than the normal brown ones. Still the nice red colour stands out great when you're lamping. She lives in a house, in a very big house in the country. Tell me this, is she a big fan of Blur?

I'd like to attach his testicles to one of those transformers and then see what he thinks of it. Idiot !

You have to dream Frank. No point getting up in the morning otherwise. Even if it's dreaming of your new pup coursing a hare or sailing around the world, if gives us all something to look forward to. Otherwise, your just putting in the hours until you die.

Frank, A lot of greyhound lads go to the local hunt kennels and get meat from any fallen stock that's taken in which includes cow, sheep, and horse meat so it's very possible that they do feed them horse meat. The lads in our local hunt kennels aren't fond of skinning horses, so they usually go straight to the incinerator unless there's a shortage of other meat and then they have to use them.

Sail around the world. And I mean really sail as in a yacht, not a cruise liner. The thrill of crashing through 50ft waves in a small boat is terrifying, but exhilarating, and you get an enormous sense of achievment when you reach your port of destination.

I work with horses 7 days a week and while I haven't ever eaten it I wouldn't be against trying it or I wouldn't have a problem with anyone else eating it. As for these idiots dumping manure outside Ramsay's restaurant, they have nothing better to do and think that everything they think or do is right, end of story, and nobody else is entitled to an opinion.

Well done DS! Hope it works out well for ya. I wouldn't be at all phased by the fact that it's not bright and shiny with all the bells and whistles. I bought my first gun about 13 years ago and paid 100 quid for it thinking that I'd only have it a few months until I could afford something better. You know the type, no engraving, no blueing, crap wood etc. Well, thirteen years later, the beretta's and the AYA's etc have come and gone and I still have my old Boito and that's what I shoot with all the time because that's what I'm comfortable with and it just "feels" better to shoot wit

Anything to do with horses. I'm a showjumping course designer working my way up through the ranks, and spent all afternoon in the pissing rain assisting at a Grand Prix.

you'll love it but avoid men with wonkey eyes who talk non-stop. if you meet one, RUN! you may end up being inducted into a weird religious cult. Sounds like the voice of experience!

Brilliant, what a bunch of muppets!! They really should invest in facemasks.

Looking great Whitser!! We have had quite a few harrier x beagles over the years. The extra bit of size comes in quite useful, especially in the country we hunt as there is an awful lot of tight sheep wire and some of the smaller beagles have trouble getting over it. Unfortunately, as we're now a registered pack, we have to breed to a stud book standard and hounds above a certain height aren't allowed in, regardless of breeding or parentage. So, we now tend to breed to the maximum height that we can because it suits us. I know a lot of packs that hunt very small, fine, light

DS, I do carry it but never bloody remember to take it out of my pocket and use the shagging thing. I got up at 2.30 last Saturday to fly to Badminton Horse Trials and came home without a single feckin' picture. I can point and shoot at simple stationery objects, but I need to figure out how to photograph moving subjects, I have lots of pictures of horses tails jumping fences and empty spaces where a pup was 2 seconds earlier.
