Good night there tote, well done . I see your using a quickset with hazel pegs, my own set up is on hazel with double half hitch and a inner tube band stretched tightly over. However at times i still find the head and foot lines slipping out. What method have you used tote ? Pics would be good mate ? Cheers Atb

I got a lazer light tomo too when they first hit the seen, at the time they were a good little lamp, strong reliable and had the side light. But they seem like a torch now, the beam just dosent throw far enough. Feck nows how we used to lamp with them, as to todays standards they just dont seem up to scratch, just my opinion Cheers Atb

I too had my first proper lamp from kings bought out of there advert in shooting news when it was a proper magazine and not a paper, it was the black square lamp with the handle on the back and switch on top. Also had car headlight with doorbell switch on broom handle and my lamp after those was a old coleman 800,000 a cracking lamp back in the day, and still have it now Cheers Atb

I agree to a degree, but the challenge is testing how much the dog has in its tank stamina wise. And some dogs can jack when over-faced with numbers on what some say as yourself easy rabbits Cheers Atb

Any body read any of Mike Tomkies books ? I have read a few and there a refreshing change. Mike Tomkies was a ex coldstream guard and a journalist. Some of his books are A LAST WHILE PLACE and OUT OF THE WILD and WILDCAT HAVEN and my favorite is MOOBLI about a GSD dog called moobli who he bought as a companion and to use for tracking wild life. He goes to live on a remote scottish croft with no amenities and it can only be got two by boat, and there he writes about his isolated existence and tracks and observes highland deer wild cats eagles and other wild life, its well worth a read. You can

I went and watched one of the trials as a spectator, it was held in Scotland in Blairgowrie and was back in the early 90,s. Cant remember the exact crack, but the dogs were judged on ferreting and hunting up and lamping. I cant remember the exact dogs but S Bartons Rooney ( GSD x Grey ) and Marc H Glens Danny ( Beardie x Grey, and he used to write for EDRD ) were two of them. I remember we had a good crack that weekend. As far as i know it hasn't gone on for years, but i do remember something about one being held in cheshire if anybody can shed any light on it ? Cheers Atb
