  1. Since when have Everton been a fashionable club..?
  2. England all the way for me too. I'm happier with this squad of Woy's than any since Italia 90.
  3. That American bitch, i can't remember her name either, though someone put it up on here a few years back) took the field by storm that year, and it was only by chance that her owners aquired her and entered her in the comp, they just wanted to have a go.
  4. A lad who's opinion I respected where foxing lurcher were concerned told me about this dog a good few years ago.I've seen two of the same breeding (litter?) The dog was a huge fawn coloured animal and was some tool, the bitch, a brindle, was a big girl also and was as hard as nails. Both of these could run and kill gear, they were in the NW about 15 years ago??
  5. Asking for a mate of mine that has recently lost his old import Doberman at 14 years old, and is desperatly looking for a replacement. Can anyone point me/him in the right direction for a good quality Doberman puppy please, pref a sound import??
  6. There's a cracking resteraunt called Master McGraths in Scarisbrick, between Atcar and Southport. Lots of coursing memorabilia in there, as it should be, its owned by a coursing man and a friend of the late Willy Tough. Well worth a visit imo.
  7. any dog that takes foxes without a bite is questionable imo I think he was talking very tongue in cheek mate.
  8. I've also seen Jack in action many times znd AT's dead right, he was a very good fox dog.
  9. Apart from the material things, more time spent watching my daugher grow up and knowing i can provide better for my family. The dogs would see some gear too..!
  10. I'm old school too and would only either take a pup or charge the price of one. That old mutt of mine is on his lazzys and still aint lined a bitch, like Fuji's, it aint for lack of trying! If anyone does want to use him, then all it will cost is £40, which is the price to get it done profesionally.
  11. Good price Socks... I'm old school and still think ALL lurchers should be cheap as feck. The higher the price the more bellends owning them imo! Does anyone else set the PFH an Preloved search engine at up to a hundred quid, just to see whats goin. And when you do see pups the advert dont say sommat like 'lovely boys and girls'...
  12. Them lace darts were great fun, used to have loads stuck under the lapel of our blazers. Always left a bit of material and frey it up for the flight. You got one of those in the back of ye head, usually in class with one of them 'silence is law' teachers and you feckin knew about it..!!
  13. I'm sure his dogs had very diluted deerhound blood, 7/8ths greyhound and the like.
  14. I had a Cowan bred Lakie years ago Bryan, it had a top-knot and linty grey undercoat if left to grow out. You could spot the Beddy blood easy.
  15. Try and keep it to the title, Reece bred gear please lads.
  16. Will he start talking with a highland or lowland Scottish accent now...??
  17. Never good but if you follow vets advice, a front leg break, in a terrier, usually goes well. Good luck.
  18. I think them Chillingham cattle are also in Crocky Redquil, sure i read thats what they were, mother and calf. The farm is a rare breeds centre. If you do visit the farm, check out the meercats that constantly escape from their enclosure on the scrounge for grub and constantly get 'shoo'd' back in, which they do almost with a smile! Oh yer, feeding time is 4pm daily and the noise from the goats, sheep and pigs, coupled with chickens & meercats running everywhere is a sight to behold... Like i said, bloody good fun!
  19. Hound and greyhound kennels i think.
  20. The Molyenux family (Earls of Sefton), well the first one, came over with William the Conqueror and after giving Harlod some stick near Hastings was given land all around my house. Building his first house just down the road, along with St Helens Church (Sefton Church). Him and his subsiquent Crusading family are entombed there and thats worth a visit too! Just down the road from the church is 'Old Racecourse Road', where the first Grand National was run before moving to Aintree and over the back of the church is Altcar estate, home of the Waterloo Cup. If you can zoom in on one of those pho
  21. Deffo Darbo, as well as the house the walled gardens are great, then the stables and the farm. The real treasure is the old kennels. Not part of the visitor trail, they are magnificent. Maybe AT can get some photos on one of his walks.
  22. I think the city council now own it Dido, i think a lot of the sporting art is now in the Walker Art Gallery in the city.
  23. I didn't get it, on the second snap i got rumbled and had to go but you can see the scale of it with my daughter stood in front, its very impressive. What i did notice was that most of the real hunting pics were slightly out of the way, which made them harder to get decent pics.
