It has a hydraulic opening compartment at the top which I used for storing dummies and other gun dog training bits and pieces. one of the locks if faulty but this doesn't effect its use in any way. £250 Collection only

Hi Dan, with my dogs I always started buy putting their food bowls down with a bit of a bang, then clapping while they were eating their food increasingly louder. I then moved on to a cap gun from a distance while they were eating moving closer and closer. I always did it while they were eating so they associated the noise with something good. Im no expert but this has always worked for me. Paul.

Anyone fancy transporting this to Kettering for me??

Thanks for all the responces. Gives me a lot to have a look at.

Thanks for the ideas so far guys but I'm looking for something that will light up objects (dogs) at a 100 yards or so. I dont mind paying a good few £'s for the right torch. I once went shooting with Ceaser off here and he had an amazing torch, small but really powerful.............................

Hi, I'm looking for a torch for me and my missus mainly for dog walking. I want something super bright but not too big, possibly rechargeable too? Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks, Paul. The extra "c" in the title was a typo, sorry.

Hi Kongo, thanks for your offer, I'll definitely take you up on that. We're off to Wem camping this weekend then back up north next weekend visiting family and going to a music festival the weekend after that so I'll be in touch. Paul.

Thanks for the kind words folks, now to try and find some permission around here.......

1st things 1st. I think I found the lay-by. Its a big one in the left as your heading back towards Kettering, crescent shaped?? Really enjoyed the clays, very friendly and welcoming, had a good look round and blew a few cobwebs out of the gun, my Mrs had a go and hit a couple, she was disappointed but wants to try again, she could probably do with as lesson and not by me!! Anyway next thing I'm going to try and do is get some permission around here, there seems to be a lot of wood pigeon around and nobody shooting them.....!?!?!

Cheers for that, setting off shortly. I'm living in Kettering, where EXACTLY is that lay-by....?

Has anyone been? I'm new the area and was thinking about going this evening?I might even take the girlfriend along......,

Good afternoon folks. I was a pigeon watch addict a good while ago but due to a chance in marital circumstances I haven't been in here for a while. Anyway, I have moved from sunny Lancashire to an even sunnier Kettering, Northampton, having separated from my wife of 13 years last september. Fairly amicable separation, marriage just got stale and we both decided we weren't getting any younger and to go our separate ways. I know knowbody in the area so if anyone is from round these parts please say hello and perhaps we could meet up and you could tell me a bit about the area, potentially over a drink or two. Have a great Tuesday, Paul.

Guys, they are far from being fully trained gun dogs. They are coming out for an hour or so on not so formal shoots and following their mum and dad about. I sent the parents for a grouse on a shoot the other week and Herbie one of the pups came back with the dead bird and delivered it perfectly to me. Since then when picking up after a drive or hoovering up he has brought me several other birds to hand, his sister is no where near ready for this though.

Cheers guys and girls. Hopefully check it out soon. Paul.
