I have the VW Passat Alltrack which I think is basically the same car On a 28 mile daily round trip to work does 45/gallon 2litre diesel Goes well and is comfy with all the gadgets Wouldn't fancy serious off road work but it suits my needs as and when needed Might be worth consideration for you as well

They are good Use his high speeds 32g 4.5 shot on pheasants As good as RC Sipe but £40/k cheaper George Young is based in Durham and is a character

Yes they are slower than a springer or cocker but work in a nice methodical way and have a good nose so dont tend to miss much. Life would be boring if we all liked the same thing. Best thing is go and see some work and make your own decision.

Your best bet would be to contact the working lumber spaniel society Look on their website it will give you some contact names etc and all will do the best to point you in the right direction. I went to Devon to loom at some over a weekend initially them to Wales to pick my pup up. There are some crackers out there just make sure you get from working lines and are tested Expect pups to be £750-£900 I believe

Yes Jim Wing did die of cancer. The hunting at that time was a lot better than it is now, had more country to go at and with easier regulations to work on re stopping up and terrier work. We don't keep terriers now after an incident with the hunt pistol which led to an argument with the huntsman so we packed it in. Pics of my dads 2 terriers are on a thread in the terrier section asking for pictures of your favourite dogs. Does the name Andrew Ralli ring a bell with you Boy did we have some fun with him, he was as mad as a hatter. Now into my game shooting but would like a terrier but

Not the best of pics probably taken 20 years ago The scruffy Russell (Dougal)on left is out of a Russell bitch from an old terrier an from the West Norfolk and from a dog from the Cottesmore Hunt that supposedly had a bit of Sealyham in him. Anyway he would stay all day and never ever failed and was always the go to dog if the youngsters couldn't make it. Worked from 12 months of age without a mistake although has nipped the odd person when trying to remove him after breaking through Was a good bayer and could be worked every week, hardly took any punishment. Many a brush tip he has pull

lutra lutra Castle acre that could well of been Olsens or Wards land with some marshy ground in the low just off the main road. They would have probably drawn the chalk put at Newton by Castle acre, always held Massingham was probably Brunns land I would have thought. Yes they used to meet in Fakenham market place on Boxing Day and the this moved to the race course or at Raynham hall which is only a stones throw from Yes used to hunt Mileham, was a large square wood that used to hold called The Horsewood which was accessed from a long concrete drive. I remember a time when a terrier was

Lutra lutra When did you hunt with the west Norfolk as this is my local pack and when I first started to follow Jim Wing used to drive the terriers about We may have met then as my dad did the terriers and countryman work when Ian Higgs, James Taylor etc hunted hounds They are a poor shadow of a pack with a poor huntsman and dwindling country now Archi

Yes had similar Do a Google search Write a letter disputing fee as is a charge and not a fine and is a not a true reflection of market value charge. If they refuse to cancel the charge you can appeal further I believe and need a POPLAR number or similar which they have to give you. This can all be found on the web or look on money expert. My wife went 9 minutes over the 3 hour slot but as she had receipts for the trip to the shops in site we got it written off.

You are best of joining the working clumber spaniel society, google search will give you the site address About £8 year They run training sessions and members offer help and advice there are some committee members up your way who no doubt would be willing to help you I have a clumber and they can be a bit slow on the uptake, might just need a bit of ground with plenty of scent on of use of a rabbit pen and trainer They are good hunters but can be a bit stubborn (well mine is) Good luck
