I don't understand this law on gaurd dogs........... So if you have a dog that is given the run of your enclosed yard and a diddy jumps the 6ft fence and gets bit you are at risk of prosecution? What if that same dog was in an open top kennel and run and the diddy jumped in there and got a bite would you still be at risk? If not, what is the defining line between kennel and yard? Why can't your enclosed yard be classed as a kennel? And why the f**k is the onus on the law abiding home owner to keep the law breaking scum b*****d thief away from their secured dog?

The thieves are still going not just for working dogs......

It won't be long untill a dog theif is killed with 'excessive force' being widely viewed as legal in defending your home..... -
Just about every woodcock I have ever put up was out of a set a side margin or ditch by a hedge or out of a spinney/plantation. Just good old natural cover.

You're not gonna find any on here, all land differs and some places that look 'garunteed' never hold and others that you would'nt give a second look explode on the one day you gave it a try. Get out there and beat the land! Look forward to hearing about it, we don't have a great many round here, but much better numbers this year.

As far as I'm aware i haven't had a dog nicked Graham.......................? Touch wood!

Haha, you joke, but my terrier goes f*****g mental at the hoover, she starts baying like hell at it ripping at the corners like she's working a fox! She flys at the DVD player when it ejects a DVD too! The Robots had better worry! Malt........... I want one!

My point exactly. If there were such a thing I'm quite sure I would have seen one by now. Facts are fox are a joke compared to real deer. I'd hardly call them little rabbits yall call Roe a dog gone deer. I'm not sure what ya getting at here dan. A US deer dog is obviously gonna be different to a UK deer dog, just as US and UK running dogs are different, and as has already been mentioned a UK deer dog comes in a few different flavours. A dog consistently grassing daytime roe with style is in my book a deer dog, or more accurately a good roe dog. A dog dropping 200lb fallow bucks sing

I think that 2.2 Diesel Evoque engine is the same LR use in their Freelander and Defender. A friend at work has a 57 plate Freelander and he reckons to get 40mpg on a run and 0-60 in 10s I think. It's a Peugeot made engine as well, so bomb proof.

I got stung for £270 for an x-ray and a bandgae two weeks ago! An x-ray and a f*****g bandage! Part of the cost was anesthetic but if I had known that I would have just stayed and held the dog steady for the x-ray myself! That bill shocked me a bit! The shitter was that the only reason the toe was x-rayed was because the vet said it was 'deffinately' broken, it wasn't, it was dislocated!

Here's another one for our resident SFs expert; Socks can you tell me why the UK SFs favour the American M16 family assualt rifles over the British army standard SA80? Is it not an admition of infiriority of the SA80? I was always led to believe that the H&K ammended SA80 was a world class assault rifle yet our finest don't see it fit for their work.
-
As mentioned earlier, they were absorbed by the SRR, who seem the most secretive of all the UK SFs.......
-
You seem to know a lot more than is publicised socks. I wasn't aware the SBS was involved with the embassy seige in the 80s. In your opinion, and I know it's a trivial question, but how does the modern day SAS/SBS compare to their US counterparts? Green Berets/Delta and the SEALs.

There's deer and then there's deer. I think most dogs with a bit of pace and desire could knock a roe over or a muntjack given enough chance. But maybe I'm giving the average lurcher too much credit? How many can take daytime winter roe though and leave a completely clean carcass? Then again, how many can knock a fallow buck over and run them with commitment? I think what one man calls a deer dog another would laugh at, but that can be said about rabbit dogs etc too.

First time I've heard that, I thought there was going to be a profound point at the end. haha.

Wear a thick pair of wellies Scot, just in case.....

I've heard bits and bobs through friends and friends of friends as ya do, but I haven't really got a clue, lol. I completely understand the purpose of the SFSG just the rest are all a bit blured over one another. Btw, I'm not second guessing our forces, just confused on the exact purposes of our various regiments and squadrons, lol.
-
Still blurs the line between them and the SAS though doesn't it? They sound more like spooks than soldier. Is it just to take a bit of the intelligence gathering burden off of the SAS so they can concentrate more of combat operations?
-
It's always confused me a bit the defining line between the two regiments? Obviously the SAS are predominantly an Army Regiment and the SBS are within the RMs I believe, yet the SAS have boat troops and the SBS have seen plenty of non amphibious action in Afghanistan for instance. Confusing me still we now have two more special forces regiments, the Special Reconnaissance Regiment and the Special Forces Support Group. I understand the SFSG are just taking on the speacialist role the RMs and Paras etc used to do but surely the SRR are just doing what the SAS do in intelligence gathering? Wh

haha.....some guns find it hard to do the "move up 2" system so making it more difficult seems strange. If they would just remember there own number instead of trying to remember everybodys they would find it a piece of piss!.... One of the great wonders of the driven shoot........... why guns can't count and why beaters can't walk in a line...........

Wind is normal here, but lots of localised flooding.

I don't even know where to start with that........... probably best I don't..... My lack of intelligence would probably let me down and damage my over inflated ego.

Happy thanksgiving to all you yanks. We don't really have anything like that but enjoy.

Read it on BBC earlier. It's bloody awfull. I can only guess that the family thought the dog was alright with the baby. Why on earth you would let a week old baby anywhere near a terrier though is beyond me.

Why do 3 numbers go vertical and 3 horizontal? And which numbers represent which drive? I'm assuming the mornings drives go down and the afternoons drives go across, moving up by 4 each drive? Got to be honest, if I was given that I would be a bit confused at first. I would probably favour a more intuitive design, something really straightforward so there is absolutely no confusion. I think you could sell them if made from a thin plastic or engraved/stamped brass and come with a nice leather wallet to hold them (price wise I would think that should fetch around £100 mark). But they don't a
