Didn't get there this year an am pleased from your comments there used to be a load of Durham lads travel down every year for years until a few year back when it start going down hill..I travelled down last year an every class Powell was in he won not saying he hasn't got good looking dogs but I think the judges were right up his ring peace

Last year JP was a judge He did get reserve this year and deserved it in my eyes with a nice strong black dog.

It's bad to get out & took us an hour to get to the main road , m4 was at a stand still . So all in all it wasn't worth it apart from some craic .

I went a few years ago, it had it's moments but mostly we were waiting around for things to happen, did anyone go this year in the end?

I heard some crazy news about cows smashing up a helicopter this year!

and the year before he lost to a Russel, imo the dog he lost with should have won. The judge knew both men and has had a stud off the ginger man's lurcher many moons ago, I wouldn't say it's a fix there. But I thought that little Russel that won this year was hanging.

By the way this year was shit. And I imagine the white Hart pub is also shit now too as the show is so far away.

Must admitt I didn't think the Russel was up to much. And you could see the fatter judge of the 2 liked his Russels. He seemed to ignore any coloured stuff that was on the bigger size. Each to there own and all that. Can't please everyone.

[the goat 642]

He is a massive Russel fan and has some nice Russells himself.....

[Cargol 302]

Don't know the bloke but you could tell. Thought the black un that got reserve was a nicer animal.

Same here!

I'm a russell man and I too thought the black was a better dog, in fact I thought there were better dogs not chosen than the winner but it's the judges decision not mine.

The lad what had champion also won the pup champion with a strong looking russell dog, which in my eyes again was a better dog than the overall winner but obviously that can't qualify.

[the goat 642]

Exactly my thoughts raynardman. The black dog to me was a cracker, but I thought there were better dogs than him there too...but then again I wasn't running my hands over it and checking it so who am I to say.

My first game fair for years, I know not to fuckall about Huniting. Just getting a feel of everything at the moment that's why I'm on here swatting up. I enjoyed the Saturday. Didn't have much time to watch the show because I had my dogs with Me and my first thoughts was to make sure they didn't get overawed by everything.

 

I enjoyed seeing the dogs everywhere, a lovely huge irish wolfhound and great sane. Got a new knife for rabbits aswell
