    new pots boiled and tossed in butter and fresh mint......................with grilled lamb chops maybe...and some green stuff

    dont bother with jersey royals now as they are tasteless..............i believe the reason is the authorites have stopped the gathering of kelp and seaweed to use as fertilizer...........

    can anyone confirm this ??

    Agree. Jersey Royals used too taste so dam good. Start of the potato season. Grown a few of new varieties but my bench mark Pentland Javelin for first earlies.

To be honest we could all do with a rest but I will miss it.53811399-D4F7-4A6A-BB85-A95F8CAC4975.jpeg.797a2f323afda04f052ada9d89b92dac.jpeg

    Fantastic Scenery. I feel the same could do with a rest. But do will miss it. Easier too work dogs than a plod round block.

    Beautiful day on the hill picking up yesterday which is unusual at the moment. My photographer pal took the opportunity to get out and snap my young dog in his first season bringing this partridge in through the burn. Worth looking at his site ARC Photography as he does some great work.

    Two separate points.

    Yes Harrington’s is great and mine are put on this irrespective of what the breeder used but mix it in slowly with current food.

    Training to the gun is an emotive point. Mine do not hear gunshot proper until around 12 months old and the ears are fully developed. This is later than most but I take a cautious approach to this as I have a pack of dogs and plenty of time. I never start with blanks or dummy launcher as they produce a crack that some dogs do not like. Always a shotgun at distance and reduce if no adverse reaction. Usually starting in the car park of a clay ground just feeding treats on the tailgate and work in from there.

    Nor do i use starter pistol  and dummy launcher early on. I don’t want the association of shot with retrieve as I want rock steady dogs.

    Just take your time it’s not a race.

    Good luck

    Excellent advice.
