  1. Feckin' hell Dillon, what's he done to deserve that? My mate had one of those and after a trip to the pub one dinner, he managed to squeeze about ten of us in it. When he took a corner at speed, he tipped the fecker over. It was hilarious. Don't come to me in that thing Fellpony!
  2. Yeah, very good feel good tele.
  3. Great post "fellow hunter". Nice looking avatar mate. Any chance of a day out with anyone on here? :ph34r:

    . Cragman, your'e missing the point. I sympathise with people in rural areas and young prople starting on the property ladder, but this proposed law affects everyone. My parents, in their 80s have lived in their house all their lives, it was a council house that they saved to buy and it would be the only thing they could leave to their family. But if we don't sell it within 6 months of their deaths the council can just put assylun seekers in it !!! Cheers. Fair point mate. I thought that this law was being aimed specifically at the rural communities for the reasons I stated. How s

    It's a bit different when you're talking about 4x4s! The young people in the lakes are having to look at mortgages around 200k+ for their first home, whilst earnings have remained low. It's a rural economy. We get a lot on the TV here about the damage done by these southerners buying up second homes...the young ones are having to move out of the area away from their own villages because some rich southerner wants a cottage in the lakes for a couple of weeks a year. They've now started to do something about it locally...but it's to little to late I fear. Money talks.

    Could help locals in places like the lakes where southerners have mopped up all the houses, paying over the odds for houses and cottages and pricing the local young ones out of their OWN area! They turn up for a week in summer, have a walk, buy a loaf then feck off back down south for the rest of the year! :realmad:

    I agree with Ditch the Shit. I used to stick my ferts food and other kills in the fridge, but really that won't do even for me! Got myself a shed, kitted it out then picked up a nice little freezer for nowt. It's full of allsorts now...rabbit, moles, the odd rat, duck, fox pads from momentous red letter days with the hounds, babies...the usual stuff. Advertise for a freezer, in any condition. Chances are someone will have one standing doing nowt, unplugged in the back of a shop or warehouse.
  8. Erm, it's either dig or climb a fell?
  9. Only recently I was asked to move a fox off some land, and did all the visits, you know, the recces and this fox was coming through the same spot every evening at about 8.30pm. Mooching about, looking for insects and mice, quite oblivious to me standing about 25 yards away. When I did turn up to sort it, I just let it walk away, right passed me and although I put the gun up to it I couldn't or didn't want to shoot it. The lambs are growing, it presented no threat and it seemed like it would be a waste to dispatch such a lovely beast. I did the same in March this year on another spot, bearing i
  10. Swamper, that fire's still going mate . I walked the Terrier earlier...about 8pm and it was still smoking over the back of the moor. Some fire that mate. I'm working over there saturday morning so I'll have a look in between having a go at the geese.
  11. Frain took early retirement didn't he with a bad back...Fellpony, how's ya back?
  12. The timeless classic..."The Amazing Mr Blunden".
  13. I always piss my pants watching "It's a mad, mad, ,mad, mad world".
  14. On a serious note, number 3 is in fact a number 2 :ph34r: !! It's crap. Much the same as all the rest. Favourite comment during filming...."There's another for Sue", "There's another for Sue", "There's another...." as Sue grabs yet another bunny from the longnet.

    Fact is they'll all still get their 120k a week and retire in their early thirties millionaires, then become "experts" on the box telling everyone how future players are shaping up. Joe Bloggs and the likes of me and you will still be at it 'til we're 65 or over and for what? Not a feckin' tap! I stopped going standing in the old K stand in the late eighties when the cost started to spiral out of control. Hopefully Beckham's gone for good, 'cos the c**t can't tackle or head a ball. Give the arm band to Terry and f**k Rooney off 'til he's grown up. Amen.
  16. Broughton's just outside Skipton. I'd say a few miles outside. Follow all the 4 wheel drives with "f**k The Ban" stickers in the rear window!
  17. According to folk writing on smoochers, they edit articles at the CMsW...So there you have it, Frain's work was feckin' brilliant ALL the time, it's just that it was "kept from us", we were deprived. It could also explain why Plummers work was shite. I knew all along that he was genuine.
  18. The Terrier and Lurcher show are normally free to get in to. It's just a matter of going through the right gate for parking. It'll be signposted. If you want to go into the show later, then you can pay virtually next to the ring. Pay, then cross the bridge over the river into the show. If you ever want to come out of the show for whatever, then return, they normally stamp the top of your hand, which you then show as you return. Hope you're understanding all this 'cos I ain't!!!
  19. The man's a feckin' LIABILITY!
  20. Dogginlad, this show has slowly been going down the pan. I've been going years, but not this year . The stalls are for your basic stuff, socks, gifts, wine and fancy goods. The Terrier and Lurcher shows are ok (with free admittance if you take the right entrance) and are a good craic, but the rest....forget it. Nice setting though if the weathers fine! I'd say take the kids, it's an excuse to try some candy floss. :sick:
  21. Has anybody read any of the new Sean Frain trilogy of books recently released? I'm in two minds whether to buy one (but which?), all three or just say "f**k it" and stick to reading his late father Brian's stuff. (RIP).
  22. "The music of the hounds". Feckin' brilliant!
