  1. Hunting, fishing type folk really are salt of the earth. I've too many stories to tell when hunting/fishing/country folk have done me a good turn to mention.
  2. Not exotic, put still probably hard to come by, I always fancied a pure working Deerhound.
  3. More or less finished for the season but got an hr to spare on Fri so threw dogs in van and spun down to a field with big briars for a quick mooch. Seemed to be plenty of scent about. Floyd went into a big briar and started sounding straight away. After few mins two bolted, lurcher got a race after one and other got away unseen but the terrier caught the third in the cover. She was full of kits, so that's definitely my last mooch, at least until late summer after the graziers.
  4. I used to never break to cats but I do now. Not a good luck if you go into a farmers yard and your dogs try and kill his family cat.
  5. When it's time, it's the right thing to do.
  6. Lurchers are so needy, but they love their masters no questions
  7. Last mooch of the season today. Time for walks on beach, plenty of road work, terrier and lurcher shows and of course fishing.
  8. Dinosaurs...we know how they ended up.
  9. "Tomato famine" that was tough times for yiz in fairness ?
  10. I'd make burgers outta that ? That's quality food, won't get better.
  11. Fell terrier by BP a great book.
  12. I've always had loads of dogs but as I get older I've promised the wife that as they die off I won't replace em and I'll only keep one dog but tbh ya need a terrier and lurcher so I'm gonna have to find a way around to break that promise ?
  13. rabbit for the pot and one rat today, couple of marks and missed some rats bolting.
  14. Good mooch today. Flushed rabbits and long ears and got two rats, one in the video and another marked and caught as he bolted from a stick pile. Rat in the video was marked and flushed from a stick pile and hunted to his burrow.
  15. Was out for a walk on the quite back lanes. Dogs marked on a drain ditch, I'd no spade with me so they'd a long hard scratch to account for two rats. https://youtu.be/FTAriJ7D-Hs https://youtu.be/MY92wOFKDKE https://youtu.be/rQyoikHU_ik https://youtube.com/shorts/yQ91cwKqnPA?feature=share
  16. collage from Google pics my lad through the yrs. Bad injury at 3 yrs old ment I never got the prime yrs out of him but he's a honest dog, very well mannered, still puts an odd rabbit in the bag on the lamp, will exercise long ears, good at the rats marking and catching bolters from holes. About 7 yrs now.
  17. Organic lamb chops gifted by a friend and local organic farmer who I do vermin control for and who's farm my son does work experience on every week. Delicious.
  18. Just keep him as lean and fit as possible, then he'll be at his fastest.
  19. It would depend on wording of the bill. But going by the letter you could argue.
