Who Is The Craziest Lurcherman On Thl?
jukel123 replied to jukel123's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Like i say.Crazy. -
A dog that can regularly catch any prey it's pointed at day and night. That retrieves catches it is capable of carrying undamaged. Has tremendous stamina. Is quiet in kennel, is rarely injured and is good with other dogs and people. Is loyal-doesn't bother with anybody but it's owner. Is a good guard. Will work with long nets and purse nets. Will retrieve anything even from water. Has a good jacket. Always does its best. Just like mine----not

Who Is The Craziest Lurcherman On Thl?

Skycat has to be the keenest lurcherwoman who has ever lived. -
Jesus her voice is annoying. Scraping chalk on a blackboard.

One thing the internet teaches you is that there is always somebody more passionate and knowledgeable ( crazy) than you. I thought I was keen on this game until I started to read Fuji's posts. He admits himself he's wasted his life on lurchers but he still carries on day in day out living lurchers. I'm not saying it's particularly admirable, he says the same thing himself. Darcy is another, followed by D Lloyd. Who gets your vote for the most devoted (daftest?) lurcherman on THL? Any theories as to why they are so devoted to the game? After all, there are plenty of other things in life. Keep

I know of two areas, one in the North East and one in the Scottish Borders which, a few years ago were literally crawling with rabbits. Dozens per acre, you could literally smell them on the air. Both areas are now totally bare of rabbits. Is there anybody on here who can give an explanation? Is it the Chinese virus or more virulent strains of mixy which is wiping them out? Why are some areas, like Scotland and the Yorkshire Dales still able to hold on to the rabbit populations? Any boffins?

How you can get paid so much for simply being a sleaze ball is beyond me.

Saw 5 hares chasing each other thus morning only about fifty yards away from me.. Could have shot at them and given the dogs a retrieve but it would have been unsporting. They showed no caution, they were totally intent on mating. Daffodila are starting to show and rooks showing an interest in building. Crazy for January.The seasons are definitely changing.

Did Or Does Anyone Make A Living Out Of Work There Lurchers
jukel123 replied to bob84's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
My old man was a good snarer.He even tried snaring red deer in the 50s. He used telegraph wire.Tripped them a few times but never actually caught one. He was a great joker too. If he came across someone else's snares he would put two or three rabbits in the one snare and then listen to the stories in the pub after. I remember somebody was snaring on our patch and checking them at night. He covered every one with human shite. They lifted them and fecked off somewhere else. -

Ditto, only the fish we caught were salmon.Very lucrative until farmed salmon fecked the price. One salmon was worth a week's wages. To me we were forced into it by Maggie. Maggie's groupies are at it again-working over ordinary people. Game dealers my end paid up to £2 per pound for venison. Rabbits were hardly worth bothering with, hares and pheasants were better coin. All legal and licensed of course. -
Are you suggesting steroids have something to do with Bruno's and AJ's physique? .
-
The reason he was so flat footed was because he did not walk until he was 5. He was born splay footed. His feet pointed out the wrong way. He reckoned he couldn't balance properly with his hands held high, maybe that was something to do with his feet as well. If only he had the temperament to go with his skills. Difficult to smoke and train.

I am from a military family going back four generations socks. Unarmed civilians can't fight against bombs and bullets. Civilians are always victims in warfare. If I were in Syria constantly bombarded with bombs from different countries I'd be the first to get my family out. I know the popular belief is that all refugees/ muslims are benefit scroungers/paedos/women molesters.Some of them will be dodgy b*****ds for sure. But the majority are genuine refugees and decent people. They are not trying to con anybody when they are floundering with their kids in the sea as you were suggesting.They

If it bothers you that much get yourself over to France as a voulenteer in refugee camps ........ I've donated a tenner to them via my phone. I feel sorry for them but I'm not mother Teresa. I thank God I was born white and a brit. Just luck.Doesn't stop me helping out others down on their luck. If it were dogs and not people struggling in the sea there would be an outcry of sympathy.

I don't know whether it will happen but the fight I'd like to see would be Haye V Aj. At the present time I think Haye would be too much for him, which is why the fight won't happen shortly, if ever.

The sea bed is not flat even in the shallower water near the shore. The depth varies . There are holes and rises. The same is true of rivers and even lakes and resevoirs. Anybody who has done any wading when fishing will recognise this. These people are escaping bombs and bullets. I think they would rather have their old lives back rather than risk their kids' lives in dangerous sea crossings. My reaction is always thank feck it's not me or my family. It's Burns night tonight. The fella that penned the expression:'man's inhumanity to man'.

Exactly, what's the problem? A course is always preferable to picking up a squatter.
-
Maybe she's using her brains. Maybe a few squatters have bolted just before a strike so she is now trying to put the odds in her favour by disturbing the squatter so she knows which way it's going to run? I had a collie cross that used to hop from one front leg to another just before she stuck squatters. Maybe it was the same tactic in a different form?

That was a Mr J.C. Jeremy Hobson.Anti terrier work but has written books on working terriers. Such is life, if you ignored the hypocrites in this game you live the life of a hermit, LOL. I don't buy it but my father does and gives it to me. I refuse to read Mr Hobsons articles, no matter how good a heading. Just looked him up - pseudo snob,. Be careful using words like 'pseudo' on here mate, you'll start a lynch mob! Haha.... Those paediatricians are the ones to watch-string em all up along with the immigrants

You are all forgetting Brian Plummer. In hindsight we can all scoff at the crap he wrote but at the time he ignited a lot of interest in young lads.He was my first read and then Daergi. How much does CMW pay for writing an article? How does it compare with an article for The shooting Times and other magazines?
