  1. ive spoke to Terry over the years on forums. He has been in bedlingtons for the long haul while others have fell by the wayside.Always comes across as a honest decent knowlegeable bloke.Ive seen a fair few beddy/grey first crosses and the best was bred local from a greyhound taken to a kc stud owned by j piggin in the 80s.
  2. I left school in 1980 and i consider myself lucky to gain a apprenticeship. A lot of my mates could only get on yts schemes with not much hope of a permanent job.
  3. Best one i have had in 35 years was a russel in the 80s ferreting marking bushing for lurchers put a lot of stuff out. Very intelligent trainable easy enough to live with.
  4. All the old boys had them local . i like the cross watched a fair few in the 80s and 90s.
  5. Spot on STR looks like a good outing.
  6. The klitschko win was a great achievement for fury but Klitschko was not without his flaws stopped by journeyman purrity stopped by brewster and slaughtered by sanders.
  7. On the subject of fury I like him good speed movement for a big heavyweight plenty of heart not much power but in reality what level of opponents has he faced a past his sell by date klitschko and a powerful but limited raw wilder. The likes of Lewis for me would have wiped the floor with him.
  8. i read Mike Tysons autobiography years ago and if everything was true about the drugs/drink/parties /lifestyle its unbelievable he achieved what he did.
  9. Looks like now josuha is set to fight big baby miller.
  10. My old collie my old fella got him for me off a farm in 1970. Cant recall him catching rabbits but he certainly put a dent in the local pheasant population.
  11. i have watched a good few times 2 lab cross collies in the 80s marking/ferreting /hunting up etc catch pheasants very steady dogs.
  12. Never heard of anyone using a australian shepherd but know people who have used border collies for ferreting with nets and talked to some who have used kelpies and a working bearded collie. As with all herders temperament is the key. i had a border collie as a kid for 17 years not for rabbiting but he put a dent in the local pheasant population mooching about.
  13. Spot Str really coming on a treat.
  14. Sounds a real handy sort Bosun nice one.
  15. im the same Dytkos i remember a mini the old man had ALV29K never can remember mine and ive driven it 9 years.Oh and it was brand new i think 1971 and cost £895.
  16. She looks a solid bitch bosun. Do you bush and have her marking for ferreting if so how do you rate her? Whats her obedience like does she listen well?
  17. For the first few years of childhood we lived with my grandparents. i remember being at the front of the house with my grandad. He tied a brick on what i think must have been a aerial cable he was going to throw it over the roof. Let it go and threw it straight through the upstairs window lol.
