NEWKID 26,209 Posted November 19, 2011 Report Share Posted November 19, 2011 I wish I had heeded my own advice,I repeat it parrot-fashion to the kids but never followed it myself,hence the reason I am permanantly skint,another one I use is poverty is character forming Got to say my dad seems to have loads of them which he has taken no notice of through his life, I suppose it's do as I say not as I do The worst thing is I'm starting to transform into him the missus pulls me for it all the time.... I thought I'd be quite a cool dad but I'm definately not, my 13 year old girl will vouch for that..... 1 Quote Link to post

skycat 6,172 Posted November 19, 2011 Report Share Posted November 19, 2011 A lot of you are missing the point completely: Jim's not advertising for the average working lad to come and learn ferreting: he's offering well heeled wannabee hunters a 4 star week end break where they can play at being hunters: they are the new 'middle class' hunter of the 21st century. Fair play to him for finding a new market for ferreting! Quote Link to post

They had "warrens" built on their land, and employed "Warrenners" to make sure there was enough rabbits for their sport ! Thank god those days are gone ! Cheers. Quote Link to post

chook1 184 Posted November 20, 2011 Report Share Posted November 20, 2011 Poacher you will find Jim does actualy do a lot for rescue, he gives up his time to assess and advise on rescue lurchers - he's helped with the shows we have done. ive a bull lurcher hear with me on foster at the mo, shes not up for rehoming yet as she has needed work doing with her to get her ready - due to the fact this dog had its leg shattered to bits and had to have it removed (someone shot her multiple times with a pellet gun at close range) Jims been helping me get her ready and advising me on the best way forward with some things, not everything he does is to line his pockets.
