Tough call mate, It's not most of ours jobs, so sometimes you lose bits to the pros I suppose Bit we done last week was meant it have been gassed last year, we had 51, mick ferreted it and long netted it one night in the week, as well so over 100 rabbits in a couple of weeks trips... But we're not trying to completely clear either... You can only do what you can I suppose mate, most of us have enough ( maybe too much) without going back on others anyway. The big farm I do mainly, is not an easy place, never big numbers, but had a few hundred over the last 3 years or so off it, I just

Never mentioned your age, weight or your work ethic anywhere mate.... I just find it a little strange you say you've hunted with a bloke for 10 years, and now he's a real dick, used you, etc.. It wouldn't take me 10 years to suss someone I hope... If I'm on a bit with the lads I hunt with, no matter whose, and we're approached, it's a bonus for all, if it's Sean's, micks or mine we all get the benefit.... I would imagine that's the same for most who ferret with another couple of lads...

Italy , now they are fekin nuts there, 90% of cars have dents in them Yeh I was thinking of Italy.....;-) I drove round that nutty roundabout at the Arc di Triomphe in Paris a few years ago i wanted the 4th exit according to the ol satnav.......i shit it and jumped off at the first ....what a mad gaff that is !! Was going to say about that roundabout mate, mental.. 7 lanes of driving by horn lol...... Was there with my brother his wife and my missus one time, one of those weird bikes where the bloke lays flat and pedals ( don't know what they're called, f*****g stupid looking things)... Wel

Same as you Bosun,.love the place.. I was reared on a quiet wee smallholding,.. along the Welsh Marches,... I did not attend school, until I was quite an age,.hence my early lack of socialisation,..which upon reflection, really does explain a lot about me Obviously, as a hunter, I love the quiet solitude of the wild places, the Moors, Dales, Fells and Fenlands,..but my heart will always be in the high Southern Downland, with its dark deciduous woodlands. However,..I learn't many years ago, that there is far more to life than chasing rabbits and messing around with ferrets and lurc

We had 31 off of a bit a month or so back, it's Sam's permo but he's not always about, another group of lads turned up ferrets etc ( no one else has permission here)... they caught a glimpse of us and there was a Mexican stand off for 10m mins, then they came over, they had permision on the land next door, and jumped on here fro time to time, when Sam told them "it's only me who has permission" they left.. no worries, This land is an hour or more from Sam, probably 10 mins from me... he asked me to walk the dogs on it for him, " you can ferret if you want"... I said I wouldn't and I'd wait

glad you had a good season mate, always a bit gutted when it ends, I'm the same, took my little girl up the woods for an hours mooch today with a ferret and the dogs, only bolted 1 which the dog duly missed .. nothing serious now though, ended last weekend with a bag of 51, had some good bags this season though out of the hedges....

As most people, 25 plus years ago when I was first messing on my own, I knew nothing about finders, it was a case of sit it out and wait... now they are almost essential... almost.. I lost the first ferret I've ever lost this year, with a mk3 collar on, searched the hedge we were on, and every other hedge on the farm, plus the farm the other side of the road, back thenext day again, and my mate ( whose farm it is) had him and his kids out everyday... no sign.. She was a good Jill ferret, would've been bred from this year, so I was gutted... plus the £60 collar..... Like I said to Northern

I'm glad I've got a couple of mates I enjoy going out with, we share each others land, but never go to each others permo without the permo holder present, NEVER, We've thousands of acres between us, and it allows land to be rotated, you'd never ferret the hedges on your own successfully any way.... If I've read this right, you've hunted with this man for 10 years, and only now decided he's a dick either he's used you for 10 years, or you've used him, it doesn't sound like the type of hunting pairings I'm used to... unlucky to you... or him maybe...

I'll PM my number, sorted the gear yesterday, be nice to get out I won't know for sure until Wednesday, but if there's a space or 2 I'll be uo for it

This was a trip last August on the boat I put up, not enough tide to drift for the bass wel,l so anchored up, Bream, Ling, Conger, Pout, Pollack (when we could drift), Mackerel Bass if you've got the tide and cod on some of the wrecks ( just coming to an end in August), the bass fishing can be good the skipper will provide the live eels. He's a good skipper mate, lot of experience, he does channel island trips through the summer so you'll need to ask early.... let me know your date, I might be about.

Great result mate, I'm gonna grab a few short trips before the rivers close, fish should be feeding well now, especially with the weather as it is..

when i was 18 I first got into steel ercting/fabricating, the 2 old boys I worked with were northeners, a geordie and a Manc, they were knocking 60 then, Geordie sadly died recently the Manc (sean) is immortal, and I'd guess still clambering around up a steel frame somewhere, Geordie would have you believe he was the grumpiest man alive, it was a good disguise, as he was a funny old f****r and a lovely man..but he was shit scared of his wife, I mean if you rang the house and he answered his strong geordie accent was gone, replaced by this soft, plumby southern accent lol.. Me and my bro

They couldnt afford to get home from the scooter rallies, that's why you got so many northerners ! Lol lol Either that or , their week at the seaside turns into 25 years living in the b and b

Cheers Dan, I'll be in touch September, get a day sorted

I prefer the English Riviera :laugh: Walk through Torquay or Paington and there's not an accent south of Birmingham to be heard
-
This is Southern England (well South West), get below Bristol and not that many foreigners, poles mainly, Birmingham and North London, I'm not sure if they are still part of England I reckon the Northerenrs like it down here, the amount that end up in Torquay

I remeber in Wick (Scotland) as a kid, they weren't the friendliest bunch either Liked the craic with the old boys in Penistone ( Yorkshire), would go in after work, the landlady would make our tea and sit with the locals, real traditional pub, and good old boys for a yap... was like we were back in time
