  3. Hi all can anyone help what model I have had it since new and have never known what it is. Thanks in advance Lee
  4. I bought some recently for my controller which is about 5 years old it was a 20mm 5mm diameter 3.15a quickblow That’s if it’s the same type of rotary controller
  5. some really great information on here guys thanks a lot
  6. Thanks guys ,its good to have some positive feedback and my mind is starting to be put at rest.
  7. Hi Everyone, Im hoping you can give me your veiws on the following. I have a seven and a half year old black lab that picks up on a local pheasant shoot and sits patiently in a pigeon hide during close season.Hes a very soft dog never shown any aggression towards other dogs,he picks up enthusiastically and works his socks off.Recently after a trip to the vets they found one of his balls is bigger than the other and they would like to do an ultrasound to see if theres a growth in one.If there is they would take a sample and after testing decide whether to castrate him.I have no desire to breed from him so it may be a good idea just to have him castrated without the ultrasound and tests.I do worry if having his balls taken away will affect his working desire or undo his chilled out temperament What are your thoughts people Thanks in advance.

  10. Hi Everyone hope you can help on a topic I know nothing about.I have a 7 year old black lab who I have trained for picking up on a local shoot and to take pigeon shooting with me.He has a wonderful soft temperament and I was wondering if I should breed from him .I bought him from a well known trainer breeder and his father is an IGL champion and is in the gundog legends.So my question is do I breed from him or avoid diluting the pedegree and go get another pup who's parents are ftc and proven etc.I hope I've made some sort of sense . Thanks in Advance Lee
