About 40 years ago, long before the Internet, I lived at the end of a secluded cul de sac. We had an old caravan that developed a leak over winter and was basically a write off. Instead of towing it to the scrapper for a tenner I stripped the windows & interior to sell on Exchange & Mart, cut the ally into sheets for scrap and sold the chassis as a trailer. Before I had got half way into taking the windows out off a couple of pikies turned up wanting to buy it for a fiver. How did they know?

The plot thickens. The adverts are for buying caravans.

You are missing a trick Wilf. Some people get paid for that sort of thing. P.s. Don't ever go to Sunderland. It will end in tears.

Barnsley / Oldham. Too close to call ? ?

GUNS 4 UKRAINE' - Americans encouraged to hand in firearms to be sent to war torn country Americans in Miami have been encouraged to hand in their guns to police, so they can be sent to Ukraine. The Guns Buyback Programme run by the City of Miami and the city's police department urged people to hand in firearms, shotguns and rifles in exchange for gift cards. "All guns collected will be sent to Ukraine while we help to take guns off of our streets,"said city officials. Homemade or replica style firearms, BB guns and airsoft guns could also be handed in for "pub

We've been out for a fish and chip lunch today. 60 miles each way, air-con on all the way. And I had a pudding! ?

I had one of them when walking my spaniel in fields near my home after an afters shift. They were only about 15 or 16 and two lads were coaxing a drunken girl away from her friends. It was obvious what they were planning. They both got a scutch and I took the girl to her parents. Barstewards!

He must have been top drawer. The venue was the Darfield WMC, Saturday night slot.

Aye, there's nothing surer.

I pulled a couple of chaps out of crashed cars and administered cpr. I presume the survived as I did't called to Coroner's Court. I came across a house on fire at Bramley, Rotherham. An old guy in his 80's had made his way out but his wife was upstairs still in the house. It was full of smoke. I had to find her, carry her out and even grabbed a chair for her as I passed through the kitchen so she could sit in the garden till the ambulance came. With the dog we found a guy intending suicide. He had fastened a rope to a railway bridge near to North Anston. He got walked home poor fecker. His bu

Given that co2 emisions from Chian, India, Brazil............ are unlikely to be controlled anything the UK does is just pi$$ing in the wind farm.

Any sympathy with the cause evaporates when you realise they haven't considered the alternatives. For every oil protester there will be an anti-nuclear protestor and an anti-windfarm protestor. For every insulate tosser there will be people unwilling to pay higher taxes to impliment it. I suspect that many of them are just picking a cause to make them believe that they are saving the planet without realising the implications.

He wasn't a retriever. But he did keep them entertained until I arrived. ?

What about sending your dog against the ultimate running quarry - Pikies? ?

I also don't subscribe to the best bloodlines = best dogs. But it does often narrow the odds providing the dog or pup actually has the traits it was bred for AND hasn't already been ruined by a previous owner. The skill is knowing what to look for in a dog or pup's character. And only a very small percentage of dog owners have that ability. You could view a litter from the top dogs in the country and still pick a wrong 'un. If all the pups in all the litters were guaranteed to be as successful as their parents it would make a mockery of shows and trials. Some of our best dogs were non-pe

Yes, I agree. A few of these companies are run by people on the wrong side of the track. It drives up the demand for stolen dogs and allows what can be lethal weapons to be used by the public.

Its not just that Charts. Look back and you see he keeps running into the same blind alley. He posts asking about something, doesn't understand what is replied and instead of educating himself he just bulldozes through as though it is us that are out of step. Look at Wilf's recent posts to him on this thread. It demonstrates the recurring problem.

Bloody 'ell ? My first working dog cost £500 in 1997 and the second was a freebie. In 2007 when I was recovering from an eye injury I was tasked to bring in any suitable dogs offered and train them up to start an official course. In 12 months I brought 13 dogs in for a total cost of £40 and they all made it into service. The only one we paid for was from a rescue centre and we made a token donation. All the rest were from the public. Two of them were young spaniels from tatsblisters area. Badgercourt and Rytex lines. Fantastic working dogs. The best howver had been owned by a bloke with

Show me the evidence of being an informant and a bent copper. You won't because you have made it up. Is that what Jesus would do? If you are wanting to demonise me there is plenty to go at without making up things. Lying just shows you for what you are. A hypocrite.
-
I'm somebody who doesn't make things up. Which is more than we can say for you given the post above. And you have previously claimed to follow Jesus. Not the Arsenal player, the other chap who urged people to turn the other cheek and live honest lives. Still, a few Hail Marys and ten euro in the collection tray so the priest can buy some KY Jelly before he takes choir practise and you are absolved until next week.

Right decision, but what took them so long? The French chief of police responsible for the Champions League fiasco was sacked within a few weeks. Will the Texas sacking lead to an admission of fault and the inevitable compensation claims?

No, they ran a normal boarding kennels and had 3 or 4 resued mixed breeds of their own. The 'pack' was constantly changjng as new dogs came in to board and others left. Just like what happens in the wild. The only static was that he and she were always top dogs.
