    they send away the removed bit to see if its the correct part. Mine was going to charge an extra few quid for the privilege so I didn't bother and wallah a nice bunch of kits a few months later which the mum promptly ate

    gardeners world and Saturday kitchen for me though I never watch it on a Saturday

    I had that happen. But I read it is quite a fiddly op. I ended up having him castrated in the end

    nothing trivial about it mine is 3 years old and I still tweak his lead walking. He never pulls but I seem to have gone fussy in my old age and like him to walk exactly where i say. I wont office advice as i know bugger all But plenty here do

    When I took mine to check my snares I put him in a sit back a bit out the way I think its one of them start as you mean to go on jobs

    My JR used to do that just drive them back 10-20 yards then get back to watching the nets and if they ignored him he just went the other side of the hedge out the way. He also learnt not to get cut off in case they flattened him

    speaking of onions longest day soon be glad to get the other side of that and hopefully watch them swell

    I think that is a good point as when I was younger I never had a dog even chase a sheep as they all ways took the lead off the old terrier who was bomb proof. It never even occurred to me at the time But the lurcher I have now has given me lots of problems but we got there. Just as a thought the people that say its so easy and they have never had problems if you lived until your 90 and got through 20 dogs in your life time that is obviously a tiny percentage of the lurcher population so maybe you just haven't come across an awkward one.

    daughter wanted a take away tonight. I said nah we had poached duck egg on toast (fresh baker bread) with grilled bacon and beans. Much better job

    Got to say not had kits around since a kid but I got two here now and they are as daft as a brush play fighting with me on me lap most nights and the mrs won't leave them alone, But they strip a rabbit to bones like Parana's lol That one is going to be a lump for sure Gaz and will certainly get the rabbits moving sharpish if they got sense

    yes we are not allowed weed killer so its just been a case of digging it all out. Right pain as you turn you back and it creeps in from the edges so I try and maintain a trench down both sides of me plot
  15. terryd
    manageable sections I guess and ease of access. One of my plots had a couple of raised beds but they were riddled with bind weed and I could not get it out. So I demolished them so I could just dig through with out obstacles. Saying that now I am trying the no dig I have started a few beds but with no sides

    One that just gets on with it and a good finder. My old jill is no nonsense and straight to it and if there is a rabbit in there she will find it

    Anyway having that eye contact is a great thing I hate it lol. My lurcher is all ways laying in his crate with one eye on me just in case. His all ways listening and I only have to touch his rope lead in the kitchen and he hears it from his crate in the front room just the bloody rustle of it. His a good lad but if we ever have another its going out side

    Plot 2 this morning for an hour. Pulling the garlic is all ways a nice day as you can't go wrong really but the white rot got me this year but we managed to salvage a few every thing else on target
  19. terryd
    Brilliant every one well done
  20. terryd
    thats the way the thing is to keep plugging away even when things go tits which they will on occasion. Will come good in the end even if it takes years it don't matter as long as your happy
  21. terryd

  22. terryd

  23. terryd
    need a bloody catherine wheel to scare the birds up our plots but they do save my eyes
  24. terryd
    Nothing down the allotments as yet which is a surprise with the weather we been having
  25. terryd
    Bit of hoeing on plot one this morning. These plots get so much easier to handle once you tame the buggers. Things look nice with netting off and easy to work but it wouldn't last long unnetted. Red cabbage, kale and cauli runner bean patch and plenty of cardboard for the slugs these things need to stop going mad dwarf beans and out door toms few broadbeans spuds looking good now goosegogs hopefully they don't all drop off before they ripen like last year looks like I should have pruned me raspberries last year
