  1. Did you mean 'manners?' or 'manors?
  2. I've got an NCB donkey jacket I've had for 40 years. Shot hundreds of roe and it doubles as a wading jacket if I tuck it into my waders. Caught hundreds of salmon too.Every weight from 38 pounds down to 8 pounds. Kept me warm and dry. Field sports have become a fashion parade. Daft.
  3. I am no fan of Abbot. I happen to think she is a disgrace and a liability. But this opinion is held because of her obvious lack of talent, not because of her blackness or fatness or her sex. She did remark that 'West Indian women will go to the wall for their kids" If you want to construe that as racist fair enough. But you are proving my point,Johnson has made many CALCULATED racist statements because he knows these statements will resonate with sections of the electorate. But nobody throws them back at him. And there's a difference, Johnson is, God forbid, favourite to be the next prime mini
  4. Doh, sorry mods please transfer to the General section. Apologies for the bother.
  5. I thought the posts about Diane Abbot were shameful..viciously racist. I think to a certain extent she was set up. To be introduced as a former lover of Corbyn was disrespectful. Amber Rudd has had a black MP boyfriend. (There was a racial angle in the remark by Bruce) Why was that not commented on when she's been a guest on the programme? Fiona Bruce is married to a business man who has given the Tory party huge donations. Is she a suitably impartial chair? Why did Bruce not insist that the bloke who said he was fearful of Abbot being given a government job actually ask a question! The clue i
  6. If you are lucky enough to own a very good dog that you really rate,you don't mind when it shits in its run,stands in the crap and then jumps up to greet you and covers you in shit. You don't mind when it pukes in the car ,gets itself wrapped up in barbed wire and costs you a packet at the vets. You laugh it off when it whines in frustration for two hours on the way to a lamping session. When it misses an easy strike you make excuses for it. When it pops its clogs it's like a family bereavement. A very good dog is not just about ability, it's indefinable. Why do you marry one woman,give her a
  7. Thats easy for you to say Ronnie Pickering.
  8. Just watching them gives me a nervous tick. Too hyper a dog for me.
  9. I am surprised nobody has used Bird's 'Buck' ( a first cross). works everything and a big softie with other dogs. Great temperament.
  10. That's a lovely looking dog. Just a pity nobody is breeding them now. Pups from tested parents would be snapped up.
  11. Dogs of the above breeding were very common in former years.They are much praised as a cross on this forum. Fashion seems to favour bull greys and salukis types now.Maybe that's down to there being far fewer rabbits and lurchermen are now hunting different quarry as a result. My question is does anybody actually still own a deer/grey/collie type? If so is it the all rounder it is supposed to be? Any pics?
  12. Only gets cross with idiots. Usually good tempered.??
  13. It's the dog you ordered from Guide Dogs For The Blind.??
  14. Yes but sparring is one thing, punches thrown with real intent are another.
  15. More hot air on this thread than between the boxers in the run up to the fight.?
  16. Sooner or later they will overmatch her with a boy who will give her a hiding.That would be horrible. Mixing the sexes in a boxing ring is not right.It's just not.
  17. Made me feel uneasy. The girl was extremely talented ,but girls should not fight boys. Its wrong. My boys were taught you should never hit a woman. Surely by mixing the sexes in the ring you are giving mixed messages to boys about domestic abuse? But my God she wss talented.
  18. I believe Lennox Lewis would have made short work of Fury. Having said that Fury's comeback after two years out is nothing short of miraculous. I think a lot of his mental health problems stemmed from being brought up to fulfil his father's dreams. No wonder he went on a bender when he finally made his dream come true. I hope he goes on to make a few bob for himself. How he got up from being sparked out and then went on to win the fight is nothing short of miraculous. He should be called Lazarus from now on.
  19. Of the two in the photo which is supposed to be the looker? Genuine question, (I am from Wales.)?
  20. Is your galgo vocal during a course Sandymere?. What qualities do they possess which saluki hybrids don't have? What is their everyday temperament like? Any other info would be appreciated. Genuinely interested not being negative at all.
  21. There's no dilemma here. Rehome. There's lots of psychological pressure with regard to dogs. 'A dog makes a happy home', the 'faithful lurcher providing food for the family', a 'dog' is for life etc. A family is for life ffs. If the dog is causing tension and stress then rehome pronto. You can buy another dog when your situation improves. You can't buy another family. Let's face it dogs in this country are put on pedestals. Everybody wants to rehome one from a rescue centre and 'virtue signal' whilst doing so. I've rehomed dogs, I've put some dogs down. So have lots of people on
