    Hunting on land without permission

    That is appalling behaviour on behalf of the hunt. Solicitors l;etter and bill for damage to crops and send it to all the masters!!

    Heiniger Progress Clippers

    Can anyone tell me is there a huge difference between the 65w ones and the 80w ones? I bought a set from my local agri store at a discounted price the day before yesterday. They were discounted because supposedly they had been bought and then used and whoever bought them decided they were...

    Do hunts lose hounds very often?

    Similar story in our hunt, don't think we've ever lost one that we've never found.I know on two occassions this year one or two hounds were lost this year in the middle of a cracking hunt and the guys stayed out all evening looking for them and they were both retrieved the next day. We did...

    help YO pregnant, do i move?

    RMA Beagle pup stolen

    Thieving scumbags!!! We were just discussing the other night about a case here in Ireland, where a man chased after the burgular and ran him over! He was acquitted thankfully (not the thief). But the thieving scumbag got €170,000 from the man in damages. The thief had 10 previous convictions...

    God help his family, they will be going through an awful time at the moment. My thoughts are with them.

    Bitting

    God how I hate 3 rings. Try something like a cheltenham gag. Ideally should be used with 2 reins but I've seen lots of people just using one and it seems to be fine.
