    I bet. Hope to make it next year. I’ll be spending a lot of time up that way during the season. I’ve lived all over the UK but to me, that area will always be home.

    Missed it this year Bosun. Got a lot of family in that area and trie to tie in a visit with the show. The pack from that area is great to watch on the hills. Normally a decent crowd that attend that show.

    Yep. Heading up on Monday. My lad has been pestering for ages so I said I’d take him. Few my mates are heading south to it so I’ll have a catch up with them.

    Loads down here at the moment mate. There’s a loan one in the Lyme Regis harbour area that’s been there for a few weeks. The pod we have seen is a good 40 strong. Not much mackerel about here but they are smashing the bass.

    Me and the lad will be there. Also Tyla who used to be on here will be coming with his lad too. Looking forward to it.

    Cracking pups. Hope they find good homes.

    It’s the weekend of the 16-17th D. I’d rather take the Monday off than the Friday. See you there

    Kev will prob bang up the info soon. It will be a great weekend. Me and my lad will be heading over as usual. Couple other lads I know are attending too with their kids. Hopefully see some new faces there. I’ll prob get there Saturday morning and leave Monday morning once the charity auction hangover has cleared!

    Some of them dogs have nicknames when deployed on operations Tomo. Once off the lead they are lethal. Brave, pure mentalists or or maybe a bit of both!

    I’ve worked a couple of malis for my old man. Mainly search and cadaver but never PP. The dogs I was with were fairly soft and driven for the type of work. They constantly needed stimulating between searches with retrieves etc. All the other breeds including the herders seemed to just chill with their handlers. Great dogs to see in action but I’d never have time for one.

    One of my favourite ways to hunt rabbits. Crack the flask and watch the dogs work. Great pic.

    These two do alright. Mainly used for lamping and bushing but took to the hill work fine. They’ve had some decent dogs to run with so soon pick it up. I’ll have a pure hill dog at some point but I still like to lamp so at the minute these suite me. White dog is saluki collie grey and is 12 now. Still putting in the miles. Bitch is 7. Same sort of breeding but with a bit of bull. Think they both would have made decent hill dogs if I could get up there more often.

    Just arrived back from the Shetlands. Great week working up there. Windy and fairly big seas but we managed to get a fair bit done. On Monday We managed to get the group up to Muckle Flugga lighthouse, north of Unst. We were the most northerly people on the UK mainland. Kayaks away. Back on the tools this week.

    Sad news to hear this about Phil. We met a few times for a walk out with the dogs and he has always been on the end of the phone whenever I needed advice. Chats with him always started on the subject of running dogs and then normally went on a tangent to welsh hill farms and rugs. Popped in to see him a couple of times when I was down his neck of the woods. Always made welcome and we would chat for hours. He would always ask if I’d been anywhere different with the dogs and no matter where I mentioned, he had pretty much been there and had the stories and photos to back it up! A very humble

    Just stand in front of the mirror and whisper saluki 3 times and he will appear
  23. white van man
