  1. Apparently, Sean's promoting his latest book this week; http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/THE-MIDDLETON-STRAIN...1QQcmdZViewItem
  2. Dave Harcombe got it right in his editorial in this months EDRD, and I quote; "...and will simply add this law (if docking is banned) to the growing list of ridiculous, restrictive "laws to be ignored". The twats haven't a clue. :realmad: :ph34r:

    Fox Hunting

    Your right rob, but i think is more by luck , than good judgement I dont for one minute think the CA have, or had any bloody idea what they were doing full stop. They are still chasing it in the appeal courts, which imo , is throwing more of our good money, after bad, as i,ve more chance of screwing claudia schiffer,as the hunt *** being repealed through the courts, only a tory government will repeal it [if at all].Personally, i think they should shut up, and keep our heads down a bit, everyone is still at it, and getting away with it, if the CA dont shut it, i can see amendments coming. :rea

    Fox Hunting

    Aye, I seen it. It just coincides with the anniversary of the b*****d bill that's all. Easy to make TV. They shown nowt new and I dare say if you stand at any traffic lights at anytime of the day anywhere in the country, you'll film thousands of people breaking the law by using their mobile phones as they drive ! But that's not confrontational and exciting for the TV is it? f**k 'em. Keep turning out. It'll soon pass. :whistle:
  5. You're right Dean. We checked out a rockpile yesterday and managed to get one on its feet . But it was laying below a slab not underground . Today we walked miles on a moor and low ground checking everything...nowt at home . Plenty being seen on the lamp though :ph34r: . We need some real good hard weather mate.
  6. Cuckoos, who mentioned Cuckoos? It was probably a Dove or a Pigeon cooing. Bear me in mind lads when you hear your first Cuckoos. I'm into them.
  7. Yeah, Jet did it for me and Russel Crowe . I can't recall anymore though. I'd have liked to of seen Shania Twaine in one of those lycra cossies.
  8. Cutting back the heather next to a reservoir today and me and a mate spots a female Mallard with eight ducklings in tow, I kid you not. I'll try and get a photo tomorrow. Anyone else seen anything to indicate the first signs of spring?

    docking

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/cbbcnews/hi/newsid_4...600/4595620.stm What crap . Keep hunting, keep docking. Tony Banks would turn in his grave!
  13. Burn his body in secret then scatter his ashes on a fell top so the hounds, when passing in pursuit of their quarry, can cock a leg and piss on him, cos that what he did to thousands of hunting supporters. :realmad:
  14. Hiya mate. Just because there are lots of holes doesn't necessarily mean there's plenty of rats. Some could be old, unused holes whereas others could be recent ones from young rats or rats that have moved into the area. Seen it many times when ferreting large warrens only to bolt three or four. Have you a dog(s) to mark for you? This will tell you which holes the rats are in or around, for they'll be moving below if they sense danger. It'll be hard work on your own mate. You'll need eyes in the back of your head. Get that smoker smoking! Sometimes it's better to dig them out if you get a defin
  15. Not to hand, but if I bump into him I'll try and make sure I've got my camera with me.
  16. There's a guy near to me that breeds those type. Nice little things. He vets EVERY home that he sells to and insists that it's a working home. The guy is from Germany and his stock have originally come from over there. I see him sometimes walking them and it's a right sight, littleTeckels all over the place. They have noses that will struggle to be beaten, if you don't train 'em right, when they pick up a line you can say goodbye to your dog! Small in size but with the heart of a lion.

    LACS

    Barraboy, you're spot on mate. The press ALWAYS distort the truth to appease the masses, if they think that's what will please them :realmad: . Shower of c*nts! :realmad: KEEP HUNTING AND POSTING.

    waxwings

    I've not seen one since I was a kid. And then I got a crack off my brother for running in to tell him I'd seen a flock of them :realmad: . He thought I was telling lies. Lovely birds aren't they.
  19. Nice C6 there Lamps. :ph34r: Accipiter Nisus.
  20. What is it with Coventry? :ph34r:
  21. You think those photos were bad?????!!!!!..... Try and get hold of this by him........ "Rabbiting with Dog, Gun, Hawk, Ferret, Hound, Lawnmower, Strimmer, Smoker, Toaster et al"......Cragman's title name should be adopted by the author!!!... . And seeing / reading that , they'll be carrying you out of the shop!!!. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You shouldn't have told them Chief. :11: A picture from the book, rabbit with pillion passenger, the noble ferret. Drawn by the great man himself! http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y9/cragma...303book0001.jpg
  22. Tawnys are starting to call now and are getting territorial. They're early nesters once we get into the new year, late feb/march time. There's a couple over the road from me every night screeching away. Seen a couple of Short eared owls recently too . I heard a pair of Robins tonight at 8.30 singing away!
  23. I'll agree with Baldie about the Pennine bunch but will also say that every area will have its own "team" of rescuers ready to drop everything and be there. People you can rely on. We all know who they are and we would do the same for them. It's always nice to get a dog out alive, but when you don't, it's not just the owners who feel it, but the lads involved in the failed rescue. I lost a terrier last year to ground and I was there for three days digging and probing in a sugar bowl of a sandy spot. It was on works land and having been missing from work for three days, the gaffer came to have
