Without sounding dumb what else do you suggest I could do with a whippet/bedlington cross You could teach it to dance and go on Britain's got Talent. Go to some shows through the summer and chat to a few at them, you'll meet plenty of numpties and braggards but you might fall lucky with somebody. 5 Quote Link to post

thenetter 37 Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 he may of had a lurcher pup with him, but I reckon he must be a towny. If he's not a towny sorry but you should know better than to shout out when theyre ferreting. Quote Link to post
ftm 3,357 Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 next time it happens just obseve & when the lads /men are clearing nets up ferets safely away try & get a conversation going cos you never know you might hit lucky -me & my mate always liked a chat with strangers to the sport & we have even gained permission through it -not all lads are miserable ignorant twats lol-billy 3 Quote Link to post
The one 8,397 Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 Theres nothing worse than a old guy comes right into the middle of what your doing standing on the bury and saying i see your ferreting i used to do that sixty years ago apart from somebody shouting at the fence line probably thought you where a anti and getting ready for the abuse Quote Link to post
