  1. Tories broke it , not sure starmer  can fix it between the 2 of them they couldn't run a bath .... but the fact that reform has won seats I.m.o shows people need / want something to change 

  2. Hi all due to change of plans / health up for sale is the kit I got together to have a go at knife making .

    There's:

    Single burner forge , thermal matting which has been stabilised, tub and a bit of stabilising solution, tub of thermal clay to coat matting , engineers blue , twin probe thermal reader , tempering oven .

    Cost me a fare bit more than asking price  of £120 for everything

    It with heavy hearts we have to inform you that the man, the myth, the legend, dad, friend, all round top shot our very own Jack Reed passed away the early hours of Sunday morning in Durham Hospital. As some of you know Jack had been suffering a long battle with Alzheimer’s. He’s at peace now

    She's gorgeous 🙂
    I wish you many happy years together out on the fields.

    Thanks I'm  hoping I can do her right as her breeding is good , it's  my 1st full spaniel jess was a gwp x springer.

    Again mate my deepest sympathy  on loosing yours .

    I as many on here know how much it hurts

  5. It's  terrible news mate .

    It's quite a few yrs  since I lost jess and I'm  not ashamed to say I cried like a baby when she went (very unexpectedly) .

    I vowed that I would not have another but going out for a walk about shoot just wasn't the same without a 4 legged companion. 

    Ffwd to September 2023 and I  caved in and got a working cocker pup PIP (born 13/7/23)

    she's a handfull  but we love having around the house. 

    her training is coming along slowly as i had a big operation on my shoulder in November and recovery time is going to be around 12-16 months approximately 671037030_20231231_1131252.jpg.830ad2ff9e7301167ae0657c25515238.jpg

    Sorry for late response. 

    If I'm 100% honest  she behind a little . Reasons been 1 the first 2x I had her out on lead she had bad experiences  with other idiot owners . 1 stupid woman with 2 unsocialised poodles that we're  going berserk trying to get to her.

    2nd one an idiot had his bulldog cross off lead and it came from nowhere and grabbed her , he was nowhere in sight for about 1 min and had no idea on what his stupid mongrel was doing and couldn't see why I was annoyed. 

    So she's a bit nervous of other dogs now but getting better.

    But I'm  recovering from a big operation on my shoulder so not getting as much done with her as I'd  like

    Very frustrating, although if you have a well trained and socialised dog, providing your dog doesn't actually get attacked by another idiots dog, it shouldn't bother it too much.

    She was only 12 or so weeks old on her 4 or 5 walk out on the lead . It has set her back a little  but as she's still a bit nervous of  dogs bigger than her other pups or small dogs she'll  carefully  approach them 

  8. I know it's been done loads of times but I'm  going to have a rant anyway.

    Had the pup out for a walk this afternoon  on lead everything going good when out of no where a flaming border collie cam steaming across the field barking , growling .

    The useless moron of an owner was stood about 400yds  away shouting  irs name not having a chuffing clue where his dog was . 

    It frightened  the pup big time to the point  she was yelping and trying to get Away  tail tucked under and looking petrified. 

    When I confronted him  all he had to say was what's wrong he only wanted to say hello .

    The swear filter won't let me say my retort . But it ended with something on the lines of that's  my usual walk for my pup and from now on I'll be carrying a 6ft seasoned hardwood stick and if his dog comes anywhere near us again it'll  be it yelping not the pup .

    I really don't blame the collie just the moron of an owner . I couldn't even see a lead on his person , if he had one it must of been in his jeans pocket
