Mid 90s This dog is no relation to what I have now he was a beardie border mix, good on roe but lacked on the bigger deer. I remember this one well but not because of the good action more like lack of it, a short run and then he bounced off a gate, a nice big buck though.

Late 80s, this dog was beddy whippet greyhound mix. He was used for Rabbit hare roe and the odd fox on the lamp. British telecom ex fleet metro

Modern camera's and digital photography are crystal clear. There is something I love about old pictures though, maybe its the history and memories that come threw on them that seems to draw you in? keep them coming

Hit the nail on the head there ! Not just pics, but years of memories of old dogs, mad nights out, good solid old friends who have sadly past away or old acquaintances who i have lost touch with in my tatty old picture albums. Worth more than money to me them tatty old albums !!!

I occasionally find myself grappling with waves of regret when contemplating the countless photographs lost to the relentless march of time—precious memories callously snatched away. A profound sense of loss envelops me.

Yet, in those moments, I summon the strength to shake my head, exhale, and attribute it all to the capricious hand of fate. The undeniable truth is that my mindset has undergone a profound transformation, prompting me to consider that perhaps this loss, painful as it may be, is ultimately for the best.

Nevertheless, I empathize deeply with the joy and satisfaction that these captured moments bring to other enthusiasts, acknowledging the profound impact and pleasure they can bestow.

I sometimes get pangs of regret, when I think of the hundreds of photographs, that I have lost forever 

Then, I give my head a shake, chill out, and put it all down to fate,. facts are, my mind-set has changed drasticaly , so maybe,.. it's all for the best...

However,..I can certainly understand the pleasure that such images award other enthusiasts
