  1. Anybody read Finn the Wolfhound? It's a good yarn about a feral wolfhound running with dingoes. Read it when I was a kid and just re- read it. It's like Call of the Wild set in Oz. ?
  2. My old man's favourite curse:" go to buggery!" It was considered the worst filthy act. Now it's expected or an advantage in certain jobs.???
  3. I had burnt clothing, fingers, rucksack even red raw back. ???
  4. Very interesting. All wild dogs seem to end up pretty much wolf shaped and catch prey in packs and by wearing prey down or simply scavenging. I don't know of any wild dogs which only rely on speed like a cheetah. The dingo crossbreeds quickly revert to a wolfish form within a generation. I guess a greyhound shaped feral dog would be too prone to injury if it had to run flat out several times a day and wouldn't be sustainable long term. There's some good videos on YouTube of trapping and shooting feral dogs in Oz. I'm sure Charts ran saluki on feral dogs in middle east. Why did your
  5. Heard of a scouser who was offered a blow job from his new girlfriend. He turned it down because he thought he wouldl lose benefits.
  6. Rams can kill other rams. Alerted a neighbouring farmer to two rams fighting a few year back. By the time he got there one was flat out. The winning ram continued to charge its enemy's head. It survived but was touch and go for a few days.
  7. Sorry didn't spot the lamb. Always look forward to seeing lambs this time of year.
  8. Lovely sight, lambs soon.?
  9. Different subject...did your bitch take?

    Snooker

    Robertson was a worthy winner. The level of skill was matched only by daft mistakes. I think Hendry was the best player ever for a cool temperament and dogged consistency. He was an unflappable machine on his day. Robertson was unplayable this evening. He just knew he had the snooker gods with him.
  11. Are there any documented accounts of lurchers living wild? Lots of lurchers get lost when working and they are certainly capable of fending for themselves. Any stories evidence?
  12. Just watched the news. There was a sonic boom when it blew. Amazing.
  13. Think that opportunity has gone. China is too powerful. The yanks got a hiding from the Viet Cong and the Taliban. They only had will power and AK 47s. The chinks are increasing their financial and military power all the time. Don't think the yanks have got the balls to mess China.
  14. Sounds plausible. Maybe it will depend on how bullish the states will prove if theres a war between Ukraine and Russia. Would they stick at arming the ukes and economic sanctions or would they put boots etc on the ground. Scary stuff.
  15. Surely, as an independent country, Ukraine can make its own decisions without threats from Russia. Or is it not so simple as that ?
  16. Is it going to kick off? What's the ramifications going to be? Does Putin have a point when he complains about NATO provocation? Anybody care to explain what is really going on underneath the spin?
  17. Their economy depends on perpetual warfare to stimulate demand for weapons and to stimulate research into more ever more sophisticated weapons The yanks love a good war and spin any reason they want to start one. The military conflicts they have engaged is truly mind boggling. American Involvement in Wars From Colonial Times to the Present WWW.THOUGHTCO.COM A guide to the major wars in which Americans have fought from the colonial days to ongoing wars in Libya, Iraq, Syria, Uganda, Kenya, and Yemen.
  18. You tried breeding them in merles or with big heads and jaws? Could make yourself a fortune mate if they catch on.?
  19. All the evil in the world and we concentrate on some guy who worked out there was money to be made in selling designer dogs. Good luck to the guy if arseholes want to buy some misshapen dogs that go with a season ticket to the vets.
  20. Ain't that the truth. Meanwhile the multinationals exploit employees, rip the piss out of the tax system whilst providing discrete back handers to largely corrupt politicians. The same politicians award mates insane PPE contracts during the biggest health emergency for a century, are found to have broken the law and f**k all happens to them.
  21. Guilty of back to back breeding? Isn't that what farmers do and then cull animals when they they lose efficiency/ profitability? What makes dogs so different? Guilty of making healthy profits? That's called capitalism isn't it? Guilty of breeding unhealthy monstrosities? That's consumer choice isn't it? Guilty of avoiding tax? How dare little people attempt this practice. That's the sole domain of the big boys! They saw a market opportunity and made the most of it. I would suggest that people who criticise them are just envious of the staggering profits they made. There w
  22. What's the long term prediction for this virus? When it first appeared I read it would burn itself out in 7 years. No such luck. Had a place where farmer used to beg me to deal with rabbits. I killed over a thousand a season most years. Counted 4 today. Is there anywhere in the country where rabbits have got resistance?
  23. I read "The Moons a balloon" over 50 years ago. I was shocked! As Shirley Valentine said: "I've lived such a little life". It was a revelation to see how the other half fornicate. ??
  24. You lead an amazing, mysterious life mate. Are you the next James Bond?
