It's just some nonsense regarding aboriginal Australians but funny when all the PC stuff backfires on people. Live by the sword, die by the sword

Turns out he's a proper Nazi and his latest book has been banned by the PC police always thought he was a c**t! I will task one of the youngn's at work tomorrow to source me few copies if any are still available, not that I'm a Nazi, but banned/withdrawn books are only ever going to go up in value

The Wheaten x EBT pics, lovely looking dog. I've never seen a 1st cross. The before and after shaved pics, a wolf in sheep's clothing, would be a handy type to teach uneducated dog owners to keep their rescue shelter sourced curs on the lead

9" or under?

Bring back the toy poodle/cocker spaniel composites. That's all I used to see round here post Covid after years of conflict with owners of dog aggressive labs and such. Loved the cock-a- poos. Even if they had a go they could be easily kicked into touch or flipped by a terrier. The trend seems to be going back to bigger dogs now. Got 4 problem dogs/owners on the go now: A very large show type Stafford but possibly AB blood - do you know his breeding? He's a rescue. Is he OK with other dogs? He's rescue (FFS!) An EBT - are you sure he's OK with other dogs? He's a rescue. A G

Whippets, thickets and working dog classes
eastcoast replied to Luckee legs's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
I was going to try and think of something clever, and get into a silly THL nonsense exchange of words. You almost got me. Did you say your Hail Mary's and make a good Act of Contrition? No matter. One the 1st lurchers that I seen run got killed when a hare took her across a motorway. She kicked the hare up a few fields way but it was good hare and a good bitch. We were young. Seen many foxes take hounds down the same route but most were controlled. Seen a clever rat avoid the easy option of going to ground and run across a usually quiet road just a car was passing and a terrier -

I wish I only reckoned Black neck, unfortunately I know. -

Hope there's no hare or fox on the ground. Me being a boring hardinger of doom... just a bit close to a main road. -
Me and a few friends have something similar to the What You Drinking Tonight that's on here. I took a picture of tonight's tipple (early afternoon actually) just as Newcastle were awarded a penalty. I praised Gordon last week for having the courage to step up, but I knew he wasn't going to score this 1 :-), but he's still a bairn and even Shearer missed the odd 1. I enjoyed the game though as an example of how far my club have came in few years. Often I have been envious of Everton as an EPL staple. Always staying up, having decent domestic cup runs, usually finishing mid-table. During mo

My retired next door neighbour cuts mine. Which is nice. But the trade off is I have to put right all his bodged DIY projects

What about the Eurovision Song Contest?

Thank you, I didn't know that.

Possibly the antithesis of this thread but the decline of fish and chip shops. I have seen the decline of them, not in number but in quality. Often thought it would be a viable side line, charging a bit more but offering quality fish and chips. I did witness the decline of genuine quality fish and chip shops, take-a-way only, hold their own when others sold out to the kebab/pizza/crap fish and chips. But they took the money and ran. I suppose I've just answered my own question. How is it possible to turn such simple but potentially delicious ingredients and make them so bland by the process of

Something just pinged in my brain, I've never been to Israel but was once on route. Newcastle were playing there and I had a ticket. Cannot remember why but the flight had a stopover at Dublin airport for a few hours. I went for a pint in town and bumped into a friend and ended up staying in Dublin for a week so never went to Israel. This is what pinged, how come they play in European football competitions and enter the Eurovision Song Contest?

Or, if you don't see pussy you can't see the wood for the trees.

It will not remain there as a untapped resource. At some point some one will mine it, but as much as hate to write this, it probably will not be us.

Our coal mining industry did not come and to an end because we had ran out of coal to mine. I honestly do not think that there is another country in the world that would not be utilising the vast reserves that we have in the name of saving the planet, certainly not those that we are spunking £billions on to help them reduce their carbon footprint. Utter madness, so many conflicts have been fought, and are still being fought (I think there's oil in the middle east) for that kind of resource. I don't think Margret Thatcher had any idea of the monster that she was creating in this country w

1 of those musicians that I always enjoyed without becoming a massive fan as such. Did not know that he had been a scholar, boxer and served in the armed forces, but do now thanks to an earlier post. Makes sense, singing a song well has more to do than just having a good voice. KK could sing a song, tell a story with his voice. The best singers tend to have lived a life. Having said that, always thought Janis Joplin did the best rendition of Bobby McGee. RIP (respect for standing up for a little Irish lass).

Not hard to believe at all, seen it many times. When it comes to catching stuff that favours water my terriers where better than lurchers. Flat grass land with streams below land level? Ducks and geese, minding there own business, my terriers smell or hear them, ducks etc rise and terriers launch themselves and catch them before they have taken off in flight. I once owned a whippet that was clever and brave enough to to do it, never seen a lurcher do it.

NUFC v MCFC, good game today. Best part for me was to see Anthony Gordon take the penalty that he had won. Many older and skilled players on the pitch who could have stepped up but he had the balls to take it himself. I would have been more disappointed if someone else had taken it and scored should Gordon have bottled it or taken it and failed to score. But he took it and did not miss. Love the kid!

Good job they didn't have the internet back then, when the Nazi's were running out of resources if Hitler could have put his lasses knickers up for sale it may have changed the outcome of WW11.

I had a young Russell living in the house whilst bringing him on that did not like getting his feet wet. Slightly annoying to me at the time as I loved to hunt along water, occasionally travelling for mink but usually rat closer to home. Just for the sport. This young terrier was just not happy with water, even pulling up at water when close on a rat and watching my others diving in to catch or at least try to catch. As he was live in most days I would exercise him in the park close by and he would chase and retrieve a tennis ball. One day a little mongrel Russell from the estate sh

Arts and Crafts "style", very nice.

I would never intentionally harm one course. Always regarded them as charming little things. Even before they became a protected species. Hated it when terriers being exercised came across them though, even level headed ones would sometimes kick off in cover with their kennel mates to take ownership of the harmless, inoffensive little ball of spines.
