Mine get tinned mackerel once a week, for anyone wanting to try it make sure you get 'em the stuff in OIL (or tomato sauce) but not the brine!! As for fresh mackerel, deffo, whenever I can get it, they get it, eaten raw & whole. They'll just about polish off any raw fish given and love it, except trout..?

Well mk3, thats easy, you use your loaf and buy two collars from SS, one without a reflective strip and pref in a very dark colour....'Like black'..... Then, you think about where your gonna be lamping that night and if the gaffs a bit 'warm' put the none reflective one on...(your dog, that is!!!!!!!!!) Seriously, if you are on a spot of easy ground, without the fear of looking over your shoulder, these reflective strips make interesting viewing for the lamper

Gotta say, after seeing Strong Stuff's Lith battery I was well impressed, they are the future, of that I have no doubt. As for any other type and how long they last..... Its simple, get yourself a decent dry cell 12v 17aph battery, connect it up and get out and flick the switch, unless your on a full nights 'mission' it'll go the distance, after that, concern yourselves with whats at the other end of your beam instead of piss-balling with fecking fractions!!! -
That takes me back a few years, during the debate on hunting with dogs Johnny Scott used to sign all the books that he was asked to sign with the inscription 'bollocks to blair', i'd hang onto it if i were you, thats a real piece of social history you have there. Thats interesting to know, as I have two signed books with Johnnys BtoB inscription and one in which Clarissa has stated, "Together we'll storm the ramparts of Westminister", one i'll hang on to, it's always made me smile. Met them both many times, two of the nicest people you would ever meet, this country don't make 'em like

say if the dog is worked at 15 month then next season he should be worked more and harder so he breds from him all ok then in the dogs 3rd season he gets a bit of presure on him and worked HARD then the dog jacks you,ve then got a litter of pups that will be about 9 to 12 month old from a dog that jacked Yep, I suppose its up to the owner when he breeds from his mutt but anyone who breeds, especially for himself, really has to look deep, really deep.... Is your dog doing all that you want, all you can give it, are you doing enough with it, is there more in the tank, could it exceed yo

Yer mate your right but with a baby due in two weeks.... Anyways, that Deerhunter turned out to be the most expensive feckin dog bed ever, Teddy Boys never been so warm and dry!!!!

Aye, i'll have to agree with SS, his battery really seems to go the distance on a night out and also on the plus side, that light weight sees him marching boldly across field and hill, vaulting gates and wire and then leaves him fighting fit the next morning! Note to self.... Got's to get me one.....!

Ok, it pains me to do this but here goes.... I have both prints, bought from G.Hosker in the early 's, both have been professionally framed and mounted in dark hardwood. They have took pride of place in my house ever since but a house move forces a very reluctant sale. Sorry, I will not post pics of the prints up, if you know of them, then you'll know what you will be getting. I am willing to take 'sensible' offers only, the buyer can collect if easier, i'm in Merseyside. Please contact via PM, though it may take up to a few days to respond as I currently do not have internet a

SS told me last nght he'd sent 'em with that packaging..... Thing is Jo, the'd have got there a whole lot faster but it took him a while cutting off the label from HIS envelope!!!!

I'm sure it'll be a speedy recovery Martin, best of luck

Lets have it right Fence Hopper, a dog MUST be capable of taking foxes single handed to be ever called a 'fox dog'. The problem is these days most dogs don't see enough foxes throughout thier lives, let alone a season, to be truley sure they have the minerals for the game. Without getting into the 'great bull debate'....again!! Why folk who did do a lot of foxes, back in the day, used bull crosses is that the chances of a dog quitting were reduced, especially back when American imports were hot off the boat. Greyhounds can be lethal fox machines BUT how many would you have to try to find

4, back in the early 's, out of an old diesel rail track drain, big old Lakeland dog I used to own drew the first, which we wern't expecting, only to disappear back down and killed the second before we got to him, then moved on to the third, just getting them out when the lurcher went hell for leather down the track, head cocked to one side, the crafty bugger could hear it running underneath, fox tried to squeeze out in a break that had filled with shale and the lurcher, hit it and gave it a much faster exit!! Happy days....

Voted for Foxes but only because my beloved Fig Rolls wern't there...

My Little..... To give him his full title

What this naughty gentleman is refering to is my eldest daughters interest in High School Musical and her refusal to call the new lurcher anything other than Troy, not a name I went with, his name is Gus to everyone apart from her. Mr Bosun sir, how can you be so cruel, I thought we were friends, I even lent you that quid so you could show pony around the ring at Rother Valley..................how cruel....................
-
I think Simo is going for the full High School Musical line up for his newly created, soon to be strain of cunning hunting hounds Dances, he already has Troy, so I suggest these would be the next ones.
-
Are you keeping back a dog or bitch Simo? Could I suggest names... Chad - for a dog or Gabrielle - for a bitch or Keep both, your 'Troy' would be over the moon, the full High School Musical 'gang' in the one kennel. You would be so proud
