When I started buying the "Shooting News" as a mad keen lad in his early teens, I thought it was brilliant. Cliff in the paper shop used to get it in on a Wednesday and I think it was 65p. I'd pick one up on the walk to school, stop at the pub because the cleaner would have the door open into the porch where the cigarette vending machine was, packet of Rothmans, John Player or Superkings and I was set for the day. I'd read the magazine from cover to cover during Chemistry (first lesson!). I loved the adverts (yes Carl, I even remember yours!), and articles by the likes of Daergi, Phil Lloyd, Les White, Mick Travis, Terry Sercombe, Gary Hosker, et al. Then there was the ongoing fictional series about olden days 'keepering by old Whiteface, god the memories keep flooding back, halcyon days! In latter years I used to flick through it and then line the bottom of the Budgie cage with it, but he read so many articles on how to train a puppy that he was better at it than me!

Shooting news , countryman’s weekly , I believe it’s now called the glovers comic ?

A line is only worth its name if it used extensively,...poor performers need to be removed and young stock should only be offered to men that can enter them sensibly, and test them to the full over a

Got to laugh...pulling up threads from 10 yrs back ...in the hope some mug blows some smoke up his arse? If he was the real deal...then he wouldn't of had a 10 yr break... dogs are a way of life

Problem with the lurcher game is that whilst it is full of passion and thrills,..it can also bring Heartache and sadness.. I'm sure we have all,..been there...? I've been around hunting dogs

Was a hard old year 84-85 strike, I remember some of my workmates selling cars, furniture, jewellery and anything else they had for a pittance to blokes coming down from the S.E to take advantage of the situation, most of us took years to pay off our debt to find ourselves redundant shortly after

Ended up having to sell my house it was a fight we could not win though the position we were put in the only alternative was to stand and fight it was not a fight about more money it was a fight for communities and a way of life to some. The Thatcher year's in this country was a case of some had it good mostly the south and those that had it bad it was fekin bad due to the destruction of manufacturing and other industries.

Let's be honest a grew is limited the claims of this bowline being the best bred etc a load of shite because 2 lads that did show a interest tomo and Trev could have  put more graft in front of his pups than most so if that was me that's were 2 pups would be going  but no one on here is getting one ? blokes a crank surprised a mag even published his notes because he can't string a sentence together on here simply the best ? I bet there's l loads of dogs that would show your world beaters how it's done

Don't worry there's time blacky  yet you never know he might want them to chase fur instead of a rosette so you might get the much in demand bowlegged grew after all
