  1. Had S.W.M.B.O to see the consultant about her knees today and came out with being out on the list for knee replacement as they are both shot . Her left is by far the worst but the right is not far behind .... 

    So he told her he's going to try his best to get it within 4-6 months (covid permitting).

    But she's also close to the top of the list if there's any cancellations as we can get her there at very short notice.

    Pic of x-ray of both is too large to add

    Well done Hodge. The bit about illegal activities is a strong point, but, as you say, the beeb will do nothing. In fact, I bet they would like to donate more money to lacs.

    Thanks ..

    The way the beeb give him airtime to underhand promote his carp really boils my p

  6. On the little mates syndicate I used to be in a mate of one of the guns twice brought a doberman cross that he said was a "great working dog" .

    It actually was great at not listening to a word he said and running like a Ferrari at full chat through the cover crop about 300yds in front of the guns putting every bloody partridge and pheasant up with no chance of getting a shot at them .

    When the shoot captain shouted for him to get that ******##"* dog on a lead and fox trot Oscar the owner got really peed and stormed off thankfully to be never seen again 

  7. I completely agree that working spaniel tails should be docked I've seen a couple of horrible injured tails over the years 

    More on labs but there was 1 Springer that hadn't been done and it was a real mess .

    But looking around there's loads of KC reg litters of " working type" cockers but they're all undocked ( and an exorbitant price) there's a litter in the for sale section at a belter price but unfortunately out of pocket range unless anyone wants to buy a kidney 

  8. I know nothing will be done about it .. but I did it just to vent .

    I sent in a complaint asking why the beeb keeps on giving him a platform to promote his personal views which have been many times proven to be incorrect and also to raise money for an organisation that carries out illegal activities which have been proven to endanger human life .

    I've had the automated reply saying they've received my email ..

    But like I say I do believe that they will carry on giving him the platform to spout his carp

  9. Should be we buy any newish car .

    My Audi they quoted £750 .

    Yes it's old 2008 .

    So I looked all over the net for a car the same year and trim levels as mine and the cheapest one was was over £3k up to £4k+ a little .

    But it's because wbac are owned by B.C.A who also own the new selling platform cinch .

    So what they do is cherry pick the very best cars that wbac purchase and sell them for profit on cinch and the older ones go through B.C.A

  10. Selling my Audi it's a 2008 on a 57plate.
    I bought this car in February this year
    (only selling as my disabled wife really struggles to get in & out )
    as I do with all cars I buy the first thing I do is service them and change the timing belt . Since Feb as well as that it's had 2 new front anti roll bar end links and other jobs that were adivised ( they were advised on the mot ). It's also has new rear wiper motor , arm & blade new front passenger side wheel bearing and brake light switch . I've fitted led number plate lights and led sequence side repeater's. It's in VERY GOOD condition for it's age but does have the usual stone chips and car park dings that any 13 yr old car has .seats have very slight marks but no tears.
    Starts off the button and is good on fuel . Went to Leeds and back last month to collect my new car and never missed a beat . Everything works as it should .
    Has factory load cover and dog guard has 5 alloys with good tyres . Road tax is £210 a year 
    Has 2 keys ( 1 remote needs looking at but still starts car fine).

    Mot till 28/01/22
    .
    PRICE IS O.V.N.O £2250

    looks like a tidy car mate, what mileage is it

    147k I bought it in Feb this year but my disabled wife struggles getting in and out so I have a xtrail t31 now .. I had the t belt done along with a service when bought it . It had advised 2 drop links and a tyre which I had replaced . It's also had new front wheel bearing rear wiper motor and brake light switch .,.

    None were really bad just I'm a bit of a fanny so got them sorted .

    The brake light switch put the stop lights on but the resistance inside was wrong so didn't allow the cruise control to work so I had diagnostic checked and replaced

    far too biege for me

    Damn I better put some Lidl seat covers on what colour would you prefer🤣

  12. Following on from my opinel re handle in buffalo horn I remembered that back in 2014 I bought a blank off a lad on here (I think) and another member (peter-peter) sent me some wood for the handle . 

    So I dug it out and made a start on it IMG-20210825-WA0000.jpeg.e54e4fa62ba3f941631edbbbcf430d6c.jpeg

    It's contoured to the blade handle . Still needs a fair bit of fettling to shape to hand but it's getting there

  13. Selling my 2008 Audi A4 Avant on Gumtree ...

    Do people not look at/ read the advert ?

    Had the usual Muppets asking if I'd accept 50 percent of the asking price .

    Would I swap for a 2003 suburu Impreza with 187k miles ( probably had the guts raked out of it ).. 

    But now just had a couple come and her 1st words were " oh the interior is beige" ? EMMMM yes it is and there is pictures of the interior in the add .... He says oh it's got some scratches again it's in the description that it is a 13yr old car with age related marks and car park dings.... 

    And no sale as it's too small for their dog .

    Rant over

    I'm a great believer in fate when it comes to things like buying dogs.  At some point, the stars will align, an opportunity will present itself and you'll find yourself with that inner feeling that you know it's right.  The rest just follows naturally

    Fingers crossed .

    Unfortunately due to caring full time for my disabled wife since having to close my garage in 1996 to look after her my funds are VERY VERY limited and the rediculous prices are paying for pups rules me out at the current time & foreseeable future

    He's a chunky little chap, is he from pure working lines?  I'd be considering the full tail as a slight disadvantage but not a deal-breaker, just have to hope he wouldn't smash it to bits on door frames, kitchen cupboards etc plus the issue of getting snagged up in heavy cover but that can be mitigated against by keeping it trimmed.

    He's a busy little fella!

    Yea if you listen to the video I say it's the only downside to him by that I mean the tail ... 

    Yea his siblings are all black and white pure working cockers.

    He's the Only one that colour .

    I probs won't be getting him as I'm struggling raising the funds and the lad is selling them quite quickly...

    Over here Pets falls under the Castle doctrine in most states.  Meaning you can use deadly force to protect.   You can also actively presue and use deadly force to retrieve them which separates them from property.  Someone steals a TV you can’t track them across town and shoot them.  But pets you can as you can a kidnapped child.  

    You can use deadly force to protect property own your on land but you can’t go to his house and kick the thieves door in.  Pets you can if you suspect they are in immediate danger. 

    Sounds good to me !!!!
