Are years shorter where your from?

Just remembered another shocker, simply because I thought it would all become clear at the end and well..... it didnt. STAY with Ewan McGregor, physcological thriller, aparantly.

I enjoyed that, it was set in South Africa, with the aliens having there own township. Yeh a few people I know loved it, personally I thought it was shite, just not my cuppa tea at all. Most peoples reaction to it who I know either loved it or hated it. Proper 'marmite' film

District 9, I think thats what its called, the one with the alien shanty town. f*****g awfull!

Hunting - Alone or in company?
Born Hunter replied to Maximus Ferret's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Mostly alone, but ocassionally get out with a couple of good mates and the cracks good even if we could have been a bit more quiet some nights! lol. I would really love to set something up like what scent does, get half a dozen trusted dog men with lurchers terriers and spaniels for nocking cover through daytime. Its something I aim to do in years to come when I have the right dogs and trusted friends who are a keen as I am. -
Run ins with the law and keepers yrs ago to now
Born Hunter replied to Roebuck Rod's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Thieving ferrets! Thats a pretty shitty thing to do. Did you have his spaniels away while you were at it? Your not a poacher, just a f*****g thug that give poachers a bad name! -
Just imagine had the camera not been there. It would have been a very different outcome for you. So basically im saying the justice system is shite.

Some have more money than others, doesnt mean they gonna do right by the pup. What 300 quid to a hlaf arsed dogman who pulls 50k a year? However even 100 quid is alot to a genuine dogman who barely earns min wage and has a fam to support. Imo money has nothing to do with it, its about knowing what the persons like. donnyc did a good deed BUT he was taking a chance in letting a pup leave the circle of lads he knows. Top marks to him and I hope it doesnt put him off helping out the new lads.
-
Doesnt exactly encourage the experienced lads to help lads starting out does it You did a good deed and the lad f****d ya for it. The twat doesnt deserve a working terrier by the sound of it.
-
what happened to stewie?
-
Had a munty doe that I just couldnt pass up. Still warm and bloody. Very few deer round here compared to other areas so I always stop for a road kill dear. Cant be fecked with rabbits and other small game unless I hit it not to fast. (pheasants at 70mph really arnt even worth ferret food)
-
Moll, your not trying to tell us that that plummer pup turned into a bullx are ya? lol
-
Fair play to you wanting to try the ferrets. Sorts the wheat from the chaff the rats do and pretty quickly as well. But if your not really into ratting ferrets, surely you could borrow a smoker? They are piss to make if ya can get hold of an old engine...

Fair enough

I agree, but surely you dont think scruffing terriers is wrong in anyway? Its common practice. Scruffing doesnt display the terrier very well in my opinion but I dont think it takes any of the terriers dignity away. Do they have dignity? From what I can see the terrier is quite happy being scruffed. Just doesnt show the dogs conformation very well, thats all. I personally wouldnt photgraph a terrier being scruffed but if thats how the lad wants to show it I dont see a prob. If I wanted to see a better pick of the dog I would just ask. Your opinion and you put it across well, but Im surpris
-
next picture you put up lads remember to hold the terrier upsideown So, what have we all learnt from this thread?.... 1) Scruffing terriers for photos is bad 2) We shouldnt drop an educated fox because theyre vermin Why the f**k we cant just say 'well done lad, cracking terrier' I dont know.
-
cracker, hes not letting go of that is he! lol

Bigger and sharper things than rabbits live down holes too and if your pup can get down one a bloody fox can get down one. And yes, if you are seen walking about with a shovel and a terrier in the country, you will most likely be accused of digging. Best advice I can give is, learn how to identify what lives down what holes and stay away from any you dont want your little tyke going down. Even then, terriers being terriers an accident will happen eventually (you wouldnt believe where a fox can fit!) and youll need a lot better digging gear than one of them fold up jobs. All the best and stay o

I didnt need to see the show to know about it and their practices. I dont agree with the ethics of what they do but then I wouldnt because I wasnt brought up in their culture. Im sure it applies vise versa. And in that case whos right, us or them? If what they do affects the rest of the world (ie world fish stocks) then we must ALL work together to find a compromise, but still doesnt mean either of us are right in our opinions. And imo there is a big difference between an opinion and a judgement. But hell, who gives a feck. atb
-
Its their custom. Who are we to judge them? When other cultures look at our customs they think the same about us. Eg releasing thousands of semi tame birds to be shot for rediculous money, almost a status symbol in modern English society. For the wild game meat? Bollocks. Its for the sport! We Englishmen in our 'cyvilised' society may not agree with the ethics of what they do but we have no right to say they are wrong in what they do. Life is FAR more complex than that...

Always thought he was a prize cock myself. There are far more knowledgeable dog behaviourists out there than him. jmo. Although, he has done alot of good for the image of 'dangerous' breeds. But thats the only thumbs up I give him.
-
I didnt see the show but your spot on Nick. Too many judge with out putting things in perspective.

As much as we all have the 'ideal' in our heads, at the end of the day the most important thing in a terrier is whats in its head and heart.

If you were attacked and a weapon came to hand you would legally be on safe ground. If you took a weapon (ie a bat) and went down stairs to 'f**k off', for lack of better wording, the thieves you have broken the law and is no different to walking downstairs waving a legally owned shotgun about. The law look at it this way, you took that weapon with you 'pre-meditated'. Whereas if your life is in immediate threat, picking up the nearest weapon for defence is legal. Thats how I understand. Point still being is we are not allowed to protect our property unless unarmed and certainly not with a wea
