  1. Excuse my ignorance. Why do you feed salmon heads? Do you feed them raw?
  2. No I wouldn't. And I accept your point. The situation was really weird and I misjudged it. However, I think racial comments are different, there's something really guttural and unacceptable about shouting/swearing about somebody's skin colour in a crowded pub. Would you be ok with that if you were sat with your Mrs/girlfriend and somebody was screaming racial abuse? Particularly if there was a black bloke minding his own business at the bar ? I don't think you would bud. Lots of people will say f'n blacks this and that and explain they are not racist because they have a good mate who is
  3. True story. I am not sure if there's a lesson in it or not. Towards the end of last season my Mrs and me went for Sunday lunch .The idea was we would have lunch and then watch the football at 4 o' clock. So the lunch was good and we settled down to watch the football. About half way through the first half I became aware of a bloke f'n this and cunting that at the screen. I was pissed off , as my generation ( I'm just short of 70) generally don' t swear in front of anothrer man's wife. Then the drunk started on the racist shit:" black c**t" " f****n spade" "lash it in with your tail". To make
  4. Aye. I used to get whites up there many moons ago.. Used to stink of rabbits there were that many. Had a permission in the North East of England very similar. Farmer used to beg me to control them. Took hundreds every year and then suddenly nothing...RHD.
  5. Used to be crawling with them. Also crawling with complete dickhead keepers. One of them threatended to shoot my dogs and the conversation took a downturn at that point.
  6. Off topic I know but is there still big numbers of rabbits at Leadhills Northernlite or had RHD got into them?
  7. Northenlite is the man to ask about this subject. But getting a sensible answer depends on his mood and whether you are an Englishman or not?.
  8. I like those old prints of russian aristocratic women with borzois. Top tottie, both human and canine. When I was a kid I used to walk a borzoi for an ' auntie' of mine( thats another story). She was a kind of collector of unwanted dogs and had been given the borzoi. I used to walk him inthe backstreets of dockland Manchester.. Packs of street dogs would gang up on him. It was almost as if they knew he was a toff.☺ He nailed a cat once and nearly killed a terrier like dog which had bugged him.
  9. You've thought about this haven't you??
  10. Pets4homes theres a litter of first crosses. Think the bloke has some sort of partnership with Platts. The bitch is called Misty but he doesnt say she comes from working lines? Anybody any the wiser?
  11. Or better still a sal/grey. The thing is they will always appeal to a minority of lurcher enthusiasts. They are definitely not the killing machines of other crosses but their temperament is superb, they look stunning and their relaxed outlook is good for the blood pressure. Sometimes they are too relaxed I know and the problem is getting decent deerhound blood instead of the hulking overgrown show ponies that Crufts has produced.
  12. Boss should have paid him his wages on time.?
  13. Had a mate I worked with on trawlers. We could earn really good money. When we docked for the weekend he would buy a new suit, buy everybody drinks and get locked up by Saturday night. Without f***ing fail!?. He fell overboard once pissed as a fart. Got him back on board , he was blue all over. Pumped out the water, warmed him up and he was back shovelling queenies within an hour. Tough bloke and great bloke when sober which wasn't often. Nowadays all the young trawlermen are high 24/7.
  14. How much is sleeping in your own bed in your family home worth? Priceless. Drinking every night in some Boys From the Blackstuff fantasy is a load of bollocks.
  15. I hodded in the 70s. I honestly thought it was easy. Youngsters have a natural fitness and resilience . I used to play football, train and run after work and thought nothing of it. Got arthritis in my neck now though. Possibly due to compression of the discs carrying the hod?? If you abuse your body when you are young, it will bite you in the arse when you get older. One thing I've noticed is guys who put a lot of weight have sore knees and end up sat in a chair putting more weight on.Vicious circle. Micky you never owe whoever you pays anything. Get as much as you possibly can. Sam
  16. Winesearcher.com. But you will have to import it from the states.
  17. Have the bookies got any odds on finding a big cat or a big cat population in the uk?
  18. Interesting watch. Evolution in action.
  19. Big Brother gets his nose into everything. Can't see as if they were doing much wrong. Perhaps some dodgy practices but no more than your average farmer. Shame really. THL will have to look for a new hate figure. Lol.
  20. One or both of us is definitely mellowing. We haven't fallen out for years. How often do folk listen to others in an argument? Mostly never I reckon. I think on here I have only had my mind changed three times. Once with you when you were on about libertarianism, I thought you were talking rubbish until I read up on the subject. Once with gnasher about boxing and once with Darcy when we were all up in arms about a lion being shot by a trophy marksman. He pointed out that farming lions is good for the economy / employment and good for the lion population in South Africa. The rest of
  21. Jockeys are tough little feckers. Tremendous self discipline eating next to nowt for years. Flung off horses at breakneck speed. Multiple bone breaks over their careers. Most sportsmen are wimps in comparison.
  22. A clairvoyant describing people who chew the fat on THL General Talk? Some crackpot far right arsehole?
  23. There are new regulations coming into effect from October with regard to the commercial breeding of dogs. I suspect these regulations have influenced the decision to pack up.
