  1. It's a tree not Kale and more trees is a good thing. Some where for the deer lol
  2. If some one did that to a fox they get life
  3. Great idea nothing more depressing than a bloody graveyard. I am going to stick some bulbs of some description on my grand parents graves. The wife noticed some one had done it and that is a great idea. Nice low maintenance fresh flower every year. They would have both liked that
  4. they need to play tug and teach it to drop
  5. That happened to a friend of mine. Put lots of work into it and was just getting where he wanted him. Slipped it one night. Chased the quarry into woodland and didn't return. Searched woods night and day for weeks but seemed to of vanished. Bad times. That is terrible not knowing like Ray says. I phrased that wrong mine did actually make it home just didn't see the morning That doesn't sound good, what happened? Remember it like yesterday. Me and a mate were lamping a big field one of us down each side. But one rabbit ran away from the hedge and out on my beam. My mate just happened to

  8. Might try a few my self. Not bother since I was a kid http://www.farminmypocket.co.uk/growing/wild-food/hazelnuts
  9. They were all good in there own way. One was a bit special just because we bonded so well but typically he never came home one night
  10. yea shame that really enjoyed his clips. He says it takes him 40-60 hours a week to do one but not sure how that works out. I know its time consuming mind. Anyway wish him luck seems a top fella. I would support him on the patreon but need to watch the pennies
  11. I know sod all and had problems of me own which have been ironed out. But nip to screw fix and get this http://www.screwfix.com/p/braided-polyester-rope-pink-white-5mm-x-15-2m/73573 let the dog drag it around some where there is nothing to chase without holding it. Then go to where there is stock. But when she takes off might be an idea to take a step or two in the same direction because she will hurt her self when she hits the end. But you will have caught her in the act then. Or use a collar
  12. Yes I know what you mean Charlie. It did bother me to start but I noticed he only did it if they got close when he was marking. Then he fooked them off and went back to the hole. He only chased then back ten yards or so and often they would sod off then. If not he just went the other side of the hedge out the way Brainy fella. If me big black lad did that I would put stop to it he has enough ideas lol
  13. My little jr when ferreting all ways herded cattle away a few yards by charging them and barking and swinging around and getting on with the job in hand. He had a 6th sense though and all ways new if they weren't going to budge then he opted to just work the other side of the hedge. He also made sure he never got cut off. Wise little dog lol
  14. Animals stampeding around in the dark worries me mostly because the daft sods could break some thing. If not me then them selves. Nothing worse than a horse thundering along in the pitch black so I just avoid them all if i can
  15. you know its good when you watch it right through
  16. Couldn't agree more. If its a young xBull or xBedlington it will catch. And might be spectacular and kill 1000s rabbits (or whatever you are after) but you will damage it. The point is not that young dogs won't catch, the point is that in the catching they're likely to get damaged because they are not properly developed. This is not about being soft on the dog or wrapping it in cotton wool it is about protecting your pet/investment. I think bull crosses should be held back the most because they are so brave and strong they show injuries the least. some thing to be said for that.
  17. The whippet cross folks just get on with and have no need to beat there chests
  18. Them toms in the picture are crimson crush Arry and yes they seem fine as far as blight goes. The spuds not far away all got blighted. They are suffering bad from blossom end rot but that is my fault with the watering or lack of in this case. Taste great and definitely a good out door tomato and I will be doing them next year but making the ground water retentive with one method or another . Bloody good crop too just shame most rotted Yes Allan that is them Looking forward to chips monday night if not before
  19. You are right Arry yours look well happy in there In my case it was simply a matter of laziness lol. I use the scaffold netting which was on them but I sort of threw it on. If your going to net you need to do it proper and support the netting off the plants and secure it around the edges on the ground which also helps keep slugs out. I didn't and that is the result. I should have learnt by now Had a bit of a tidy up to day. It is that time of year now when I do tend to leave the plot get on with it and switch my focus to rabbits, big bass and pigeons. So this year making the effort
  20. bet there is a bull cross the other side of the bale
  21. you got that right wish I had been taking notes when nan was alive. I have never been able to recreate her stew
  22. I remember my beddy/whippet doing some thing long them lines when she was young. Then she eventually grabbed one literally by the fur and struggled to hold it. I remember her losing a few then she sort of perfected things and held them just by the skin. Just the way she was and turned out brilliant. Stick with it and now is the time nice easy rabbits up against a nice thick hedge. Get right in there and give a bit of encouragement rather than stand a 100 yards away holding the lamp
