  1. I’d of thought getting a decent bred beddy greyhound now would be a near impossible task there not what they were 20 odd yr ago. Beddy lurcher to beddy lurcher type bred worker to worker is the way to go in my opinion
  2. Got given a pair of quad bikes for free for my sons by my brother inlaw. I said to him I’m thinking of getting my lads a quad to share for Xmas in a conversation we we’re having one day he said that that’s a good idea. couple of days later he rings me come to the unit I thought he wanted a hand with somat takes me in one of his units an said there you go quads for the boys take em he said there new I had 8 in total but sold six he said they just need new fuel lines as they have been sat for 3yrs he said we only kept them 2 because we thought we would get use for them but they’ve not moved sin
  3. Crazy ain’t it I’ve been keeping my eye on the kx 250s 2strokes on fle bay for my next bike but the prices are mental most are wanting 6.5k for rough looking bikes there’s the odd 3.5k kx250 they all in need of a proper rebuild
  4. Bit of useless information I was doing a bit of reading on tinter net not so long ago it was saying the launch of 4strokes in motor cross was the worst thing that could of happened to the sport they said soon as the teams started switching to 4strokes blokes that were privateers packed in a lot of teams made there riders say 2smokers were wack and slow Jo public believe it but it was all a marketing ploy by manufacturers because 2smoke was a cheap form of racing bikes were relatively cheap new if they went pop they could be repaired quickly it was all a ploy to boost sales through dealership f
  5. That Norton is a super sweet looking bike

  14. Thought I’d start a post on project motorcycles that some of you lads have done or doing? this is the little project I done a 03 kx125 she’s now a clean little bike that runs super clean and crisp I’ve had a lot of enjoyment out of restoring/building her and mobbing about on the roads an through the woods something else I’ve really enjoyed is the research side of things when looking for parts or race history on the bike/model
  15. Not a fisherman but used to fish years ago as a young buck used to love pike fishing my favourite fish in the British waterways…….they fecking taste like shit tho and full of bones
  16. I believe you about the ladder course the bloke I contract to said to me last year I need to hold a ticket/card to say I’m ladder trained or sites will no longer allow me to use a ladder on site….

  17. Never been a prepper but can’t see no reason not to be prepared for anything in some way shape or form tbh but these people that tell everyone there a prepper an make a big deal out of showing all there gear plus showing people what they have were it’s kept is a stupid idea because if shit really hits the fan there the first getting turned over people change in times of desperation and hardship.
  18. Good old welly market ain’t been there for time. The Asians on the trainer store used to rock the hi viz coats like joes they were selling genuine nike air max for £40 I used to always ask why they so cheap I’d always get told closing down sale mate longest closing down sale in history for about 5 years
  19. That was the cluelite 50w bulb standard put a 100w in without changing the backing to the alloy one you would get melt down
  20. Long gone are the days of the old cluelite converted to a blazalite 100w bulb alloy backing no adjustment just a flip up filter as the mod con I used to use the 170 copy with dimmer it was running a 100w bulb I used to run the dimmer 3quarter open an the head adjusted half way I found was the sweet spot for me an my eye sight I’d not miss spotting stuff that way the amount of times I’ve lamped with others over the years an they have over looked stuff because there lamps were set up wrong they had a strong bulb an the head wound so the beam was so tight it was like they could burn the fi

I think a beddy greyhound x collie greyhound fits the bill well as a all round used for a bit of everything type of dog master of none not to big not to small good turn of speed got a bit of weight behind them if needed an clever enough to learn what’s expected of them they fit in well as a pot hunter type dog I’ve found they a ready for anything type of dog
