  1. if you are a novice and like "quick" results a lab is the dog for you ---if you have some experience with dogs and like to get amongst it i.e beating /rough shooting I would choose a springer -like as been said some labs will do same job as springer but not all - good luck with your choice
  2. cant wait till leaves drop off trees so I can get to work on bandits at night -[my favourite type of shooting ]
  3. take a saw to it and cut nigh on half way through it --few days later complain to local authority about your fears it might be a hazard to you /public etc and when someone comes out say you saw load of youths drinking being unruly etc [hoy a few empties nearby lol] they have to remove it by law [quickly /safety reasons]
  4. me and mate went out this morning quite early as rain was forecast for 9.am so a quick drive around one permission and only one woody in bag so we drove ten minutes to another permission and bagged a few ferals between us -a chat with farmer and the rain started so we took shelter in empty cattle shed and a bandit landed on gate post my mate dropped it stone dead and I expected a flurry of activity but the only one to come to harass dead bird was a crow that paid dearly . we drove back home and had a cuppa and a chat and weather cleared up so back to 1st farm and we split up and bot
  5. I just read that a remainer has killed a brexiter over personal choice???? wtf hmmm how did I vote again? these remainers just cant handle it lads
  6. on same subject -I was out for walk last night [dark] and out of no where a staffy with flashing collar came from nowhere and had a go at my spaniel -needless to say it got a boot for its troubles --- this could have been a woman walking a yorky /westy and god knows how it could have ended
  7. yep the mother is a bellend -end of day any type of dog shouldn't have been left alone with a bairn and if it "wasn't" left alone and it attacked the kid she should have stabbed it to death there & then
  8. is there any reason you want to go down the springer route? [not knocking them ] I think you should try both springer /pcp and then make your choice -good luck
  9. I work spaniels and one of them [troy] will readily mix it with a fox whereas the other will flush one but wouldn't touch one I kennel mine the day I get them 7-8 weeks ps the "stop" command is vital with springers /cockers and comes into play if a fox /hare was to go over a busy road /railway etc and mine will stop with the whistle even if only a few feet from quarry .,they would be a great addition to any lurcher /terrier team if trained right
  10. not something I like but a great story non the less
  11. that is a lot of collared doves mate -personally I don't shoot them but a mate does &loves the taste
  12. didn't see any signs of mixy lads but like I said "lamp shy"
  13. she married me knowing I wont change my ways and fair play to her she will skin any rabbits if im at graft from a nights lamping -married 33yrs lads
  14. well done on the bandit and a pat on the back for strangulation job
  15. me and wife just back from a 3 day break down in north Yorkshire in a nice little cottage -only a few houses in this little village and most were empty holiday homes I reckon ,anyway I took the rapid "just in case" and was glad I did as there was a few rabbits about in daylight hours so a trip with the lamp should be fruitful I thinks ,well once night time falls im chomping at the bit to go for a mooch and once wife is snuggled up in bed I sneak across the tiny lane and disappear into the darkness and only switch lamp on when im 3-4 fields away -there were a few about but seriously lamp shy so
  16. ftm

    Narcos

    watched both loved both -I ended up "liking" Pablo -I mean what is there NOT to like abou the bloke lol
  17. like owt like that but the twaxt presenting it boils my piss so it was a no show from me
  18. personally I wouldn't eat them but if its nice and cool they be ok [curries/stews???]
  19. if neighbours are cush just go ahead and be ready to have sub 12 handy for a "rapid" swap [see how I got the "rapid" involved] lol
  20. hi lads a mate of mine is looking to buy a seal kit for his hw90 [gas ram] any help would be appreciated -ftm
  21. keeper asks me every year when season is coming to an end to cull as many cockbirds as I can with air rifle - in 10 yrs + ive only killed about 6 lol I just cant bring myself to killing many that just saunter past you like a farmyard chicken lol -head shots only lads= clean humane kills ----saying all that I used to drop a few with the catty as a lad [young and foolish]
  22. i am the same mate, ive only got a one son , and when you only got the one be it boy or girl , you shudder if anything like this happened .because when you get to my age you think if i get sent down for GBH or worse murder for killing that kind of scum, at least in my heart i know ive done the right thing , and i couldnt live with my self if i did nothing if they hurt my son or god forbid daughter . iam easy going bloke always have been, all ways easy to talk to and get on with, but ive go a real bad temp when i loose it once the "red mist" appears all logical thoughts are meaningles
