    Tokyo

    First time here for us mate, and only a day in, but so far I really like it.. we've done a few cities, I've a feeling this is one we'll be coming back to.. We're a 5 minute walk from the Tokyo Dome so quite fancy trying to watch a game of baseball...I idea of the rules (throw, hit, run and shout strike every so often is about my grasp on it lol).. but it's something different and would appeal as an experience for me... not sure on the girls though, so might be a solo trip which will cost me as they'll be off shopping lol... Tbh I love just walking around and getting lost, people watc

    Only got here last night mate, so first real look around today..its only 5 minute walk from our hotel so will have a look in there..
  9. I can definitely agree with that... watching England football in the euros (i reckon 2004) in a rugby club in Bridegend showed me the depth of the hatred...for both football and England lol

    Never been to a baseball game, we usually watch a football match in any city we visit... try and convince the wife and daughter to watch a game of men's rounders whilst we're here.

    Swimming

    We done the same mate, water babies.. first time I took my lad 3 or 4 months old and you put them under the water and take a step back and they push to you...spun me out, as I pulled him up and out I expected screams and tears, but none at all.. As all the lads have said its an essential life skill imo, we've spent out life on or near water, I learnt in an outside pool as a kid, it was bloody freezing... but was prepared for sea and river soon enough lol
  14. Bang on mate.. My bitch is exactly the same, around the ferrets from 12 weeks, nothing serious just a walk, odd netted rabbit etc, walked through sheep pretty 2 or 3 times a week, first time she showed any interest (6 months old) was the only time she's had a proper bollocking, good as gold since.. you've seen her mate, she's a fair sizes dog 25" and probably 70lb or so, as Owain said "she'll never make a ferreting dog" lol..and to a degree he's right, but she's been a useful dog around ferrets and general rabbiting, plus she's done what I wanted her for... never seen a dropper in her lif
  15. If you are gonna drop em you don't give them 150 yards head start... like you say its lazy though, I don't think it teaches them much imo..each to their own though, if nothing else this site has taught me other the years we certainly ain't all the same! Lol
  16. Maybe change the thread title... Londons Calling Lads?
  17. Nice looking pup Steve, good luck with it mate
  18. Must've been northern rabbits, I've heard there a lot slower...lol
  19. Beat me to it... He's in.a bit of a Jam now...
  20. Cracking bit of land that mate
  21. Sorry mate that don't make sense.. Why would you slip a 5 month pup on a dropped rabbit at 150 yards, when they're nearly at the hedge? Your putting the pup.at a disadvantage which most won't make up. Surely your first runs with any pup you stack all.tje odds in the pups favour.. im not into droppers personally, and at that age the pup would be exposed to a bit of ferreting , holding rabbits in the nets etc.. The first few runs would-be on a wet and windy night, walking right up to squatters and slipping straight away, middle of field put all the odds on the pup catching them.
  22. A labour of love mate, I've been in the building game neatly 30 years, I've probably learnt more in the 8 years I've been here than the previous 20! Lol
