Can't remember a chap named cryil but there was a chap named Jeff Burman who was a tall ginger bloke big into terriers, he's still alive and a i think are most of his terriers but now he's too old most of them have interbred as are all left to run together, guess you could call it a zoo(more like a freak show). then there's me uncle from near Hainton Named Pete I, he has all types of poultry/foul, cows, sheep, goats, ferrets you name it. He used to be terrier man for the local hunt for 15-20 years, got all his dogs from buck/breay lines unfortuntaley doesn't have a single terrier anymore just lots of ferrets, he says he can't dig like he used to!! He has some great storries the type you'll never here again! Cyril Breay used to give him dogs aslong as pete promised never to go to a WORKING terrier show north of the Humber, cos he knew then he'd have some serious opposition, Pete never did but frank and cyril used to come to stay with him to go digging, the things they got up to would make you chuckle for days!! IF ONLY WE COULD TURN BACK THE CLOCK!!

blimey its a small world. Yeh he was telling me just the other week about his red dog but i forget the name, it was breay bred i think! JB was into borders mate then turned to jack russels bout 10-15 years ago. pete stopped at melton I think last year and only recently given up auctioneering at brigg (Or other way round) cos of health probs mate, he's even given up smoking his pipe!!! You from that area mate? he's now full time rabbit catcher. Far cry from what he did with sw. He is def one of life's great characters
