    So is these traffic cops not cops then lol an only sit on the motorways?

    They are talking about Highways officers. As far as I know, they cant give you a ticket, but I'm happy to be corrected.

    I do know that they are known as "Dustmen" because they pick up all the rubbish.

    I used to think a working dog would be happier under ground than being a pet but we've had lurchers and pig dogs that were more than happy sharing the lounge with us when they retired. Doesn't take long to lap it up although I'm sure they'd try and work until they dropped.

    All dogs are happy to share a lounge and all of mine quite often do, in fact I'm sitting here with the oldie and the two pups (in crate obvs) at the mo. My dogs are all loved and I make sure I do the right thing by them and if that means pts for what ever reason, then so be it. I know what I'm doing, I think 😊

    I have now have working dogs for over 40 years and have seen all dog men types. As I've said before, I've been about. To me it doesn't matter if your a bag chaser, a rosette collector, a hardcore lamper, digger, shooter or owt else, just as long as you care. We are all in this game together, somewhat.  

    If a dog is well trained, social and the new owners know and understand what they are getting. Then why shouldn't a working dog have a nice life, as long as it has the stimulation to keep it happy. I don't rehome dogs lightly and I take my time to thoughtfully place a dog. Fortunately I know many many sporting, shooting, dog, and fishing people. So I find the right home. The deal is, the bitch gets spayed and if it doesnt work out, she comes back or pts.

    Hopefully I've covered everything, just in case peeps grab the wrong end of the stick again.

    not seen one for years, talking to a chap at work, when we were kids it was the most common finch around here. see plenty of goldies, bully's, chaffinch, but no greenies, is it same elsewhere? 

    Greenfinches went some years ago. They warned to not feed in the summer, because of the transfer of some disease?

    We get plenty of Goldfinches and this year we have a good number of Siskins.

    Don't get him going mate ffs lol. These that talk about having decent women have only had muntaz it's a fact. It's nothing to be proud of not been able to hold a decent woman down and it sounding like she wore the trousers. I've been with my misses 21 years now since a was 25 years old. She's a well respected woman not like these f***ing idiots you see now a days. All this f***ing shite in their faces sunbeds spray tans looking like f***ing clowns. Even the f***ing men are doing it now filling their faces full of shite. The country's gone mad. But this Lee Green talks some shite too. About giving a working dog to a pet home. Poor f****r living it's life out walking round a local park sniffing other dogs arse for rest of its life. If that Waa you you'd want to be put to sleep. And blacky don't come back with something from that  🤣

    The bitch is going to a lad that has a large house on an estate. The bitch will have a fantastic life. The reason she hasn't been pts, is because she would be a good dog for many and she is a nice dog to have around.

    I am with my dogs all day and they are as good as you can get them. As I said before, you don't know me Bangers.

    Not sure what you mean by sharp but I've had both and the wires are a lot harder going and better alround vermin dogs. The Danish lines are heavier than the German bloodlines. I like that as they are more robust and have more stamina.

    I mean on their feet, the short haired I know are more nimble.  Yes defo, GWH are a better vermin dog.

  7. I had one of the first Leatherman tools, Supertool I think. I was given it 30 odd years ago and had no receipt. I snapped the screwdriver, wrote an email, when emails came about. Sent it off and they sent me back a complete new tool, as there were many worn bits. They did charge me, but it was minimal £20/25 something like that.

    That Supertool is still going to this day. I myself have a Leatherman Surge now, a much better usable tool. One handed opening knife is a must with me.

    Got searched once by the Police, the young copper said " oh yeah, what's this for?"   I said "how long have you got?"     He left it at that.

    Why you giving a dog away for at 2 year old. And my personal opinion 7 dogs is way too much mate. A think for some it gets to the point they just keep collecting dogs like these that hoarder shite in the homes. They can't help it just end up with loads of dogs and many turn into shite because they've can't bring them on and show them that attention that they need. Or the new pup will pick up bad habits from the other dog or dogs.  Back in day I  ended up stopping walking with a lad I know  because he'd let his dog rip f**k out of the catch they'd get. They'd hunt up be calling them for f***ing hours. And I'd think you've got no control over them dogs what so ever. f***ing crazy. 

    For your information and it isn't really any of your business. I took the bitch on because someone, a well known dog man died, left a pregnant bitch, I took on one of the pups because my old bitch was 11 and on here last legs. 

    I live on a very large site and have permission as far as I can walk. I work dogs and dogs get past there working days. So new dogs have to be brought in. I have 1 yard dog, 1 ten year old Lurcher, 1 thirteen year old Spaniel x, her pup of 7 years and 2 of her pups 16 months. Then there is the Lurcher that I have given the benefit of the doubt over the last 2 seasons and she hasn't worked out. She is well trained, socialised and everything you would expect from a dog of that age. I have waited and found a new permanent and loving home for her and she was gifted to the new owners. She would of stayed here otherwise.

    You know feck all about me and I know you bred a dog because it looked nice lol

    I've got one here now lovely looking bird classic pied lol But laying her eggs out of the nest she's a right little c**t for it. I've to drop her perches on a night , I've sand at the bottom of the cage in the draw so that the eggs get a soft landing. Then after she's laid the eggs a put her back in with the cock bird. Just pull the divider on the double breeder. It's crazy it seems to be her first round of eggs every season. Second round she'll lay them in the nest. She builds a lovely nest then leaves it on the first round. She's f****d. But can't complain she makes me a few quid. 

    I meant good looking women.

    It's nice to have a good looking dog to go with the graft too. A would rather folk say that's a nice looking dog that man's got on his lead. Than them walking past and saying look at that ugly f***ing thing he's walking on that lead. You can't tell me that you've gone to buy a dog. " And thought you know what am going for that right ugly c**t there in corner that's a bag of bones. f**k OFF lol. 

    I don't give a feck what people think my dogs look like. Conformation for wear and tear purposes, yes, but that's about it. I suppose I've been lucky in that any litters that I've had, have been wanted before conception. So it don't matter much what they look like.

    I have a bitch here now, 2.5 years old and the best looking dog out of my 7. It goes to a pet/working home before the end of this month. 

    Some of the best looking birds I've had, have been the worst 😅

    It takes ages, months to dry. Unless you timber is proper dry.  It will go a lot further and used engine oil is free. I've known it to be mixed with diesel too, but that was when diesel was cheap and red. Creosote, old oil and diesel, lovely. My friends Father used to do the kennels, stables, coops and pretty much everything outside. I've ruined plenty of clothes round there, my Ma used to do her nut at me.

    I've got a dog kennel here that I've had for 30+ years. it was secondhand when I bought it and made out of recycled materials. The kennel comes apart, flat pack style and when I last moved 23 years ago, it was still sticky and messy to touch in between the joints. I treated it and replaced the roof back then and it is only now it is ready to be replaced. So I would say its cushty.
