Well said Danny a family member of mine Was like that alot respect him in the dog game. He's one man you could go to and he will tell you how it is. Very knowledgeable on his terriers and ment to be a brilliant tracker too , that I've been told by one of my friends that used to go out with him back in the day. " Abit older than me danny by about 15 years my friend." But told me some stories about him , and how he used to look up to him.  He had a few good dogs that was bred out of Derek's old Stafford's bitch. To which many dogs that was bred from hia terriers went to pals who he went out grafting with wasn't past out of that circle. I was very young when he was big into his dogs. But a remember my Dad taking me over to his house and seeing these dogs in kennel then him showing me photos in his album days out all over the country on permission that he had with a few of his pals out with him. Same again good lads straight down the middle. One of his close pals went down the wrong road and ended up f****d on drugs which was ashame because he knew his dogs too some may say diffent about him but he was another went all over the country grafting even out of the country grafting. A can remember him telling me a story about his pals dogs going missing was stolen by some travellers. His pal rang him up saying he'd come to his kennels to dogs gone and heard that some travellers had them. So they ended up rounding a few lads up and together they went to this site and found the dogs on a site. But it just shows the loyalty he had for his friends. A couldn't see many doing that today going out ganged up looking for a pals dogs can you. But saying that back then there wasn't no Facebook lol. It was word of mouth and much hours out looking. 

Reckon I know your relation and his pal who went the wrong way.They had a a couple of probably the most worked terriers to come directly off Derek.

I was in the company of a mate and old terrier man now in his 70s at a mates 60th birthday meal last night and he got talking about the terrier he bred that went to a well known dog man who then became well known in the bulldog game from London about his rough haired russel type that was called Jasper. I often wondered on hear if you had heard of said dog that was around in the 80s.
