Well much to alot of your's surprise (as i know most of you said i wouldnt go!) me and Mark went out lamping last nite and dare i say it....it was a cracking nite!! lol :teehee:
Me and Brindle got to Marks at 11pm or a bit before and i had a nosey round at his new kennels (that are very posh, or at least will be). Mark decided to take Kat and Jess, so in the landrover we got and off we went. Me and Brindle have never lamped from a landrover before as ive always had my doubts about it, "how can you drive in a field with a landrover and not scare everything away", but these were bloody big fields and must be used to seeing Mark!! :thumbsup:
I didnt know how Brindle would work from the side of the landi as he has only ever run with a quad on the farm during the day and there is a big difference in running with the landi and walking on a slip, but i have to say i was very surprised, he took to it very well.
The dogs took turns, Kat and Jess worked together and Brindle worked on his own.....and i bloody worked with them all!! :lol: jumping in and out of the landi picking up rabbits every 2 minuets :lol: :lol:
Anyway it was a cracking nite like ive already said, poor brindle is no-where near as fit as he could be or as Marks dogs and he was absolutly knackared after a couple of fields (and it was bloody hot last nite for all the dogs), so i stopped him and left him in the back of the landi where he was happy to stay :wub: and we carried on with Kat and Jess for a little longer.
As most of you know me and Mark have never really seen eye to eye but i think, well hope that last nite we both seen a different side to each other and can now finally put our differences aside and enjoy a few nites of good hunting with our dogs. I have to be honest and eat my words (humble pie eating) but Marks dogs are a credit to him and are Craking little working dogs, i really enjoyed watching them last nite. And believe it or not, Mark is actually a decent guy ..... Ill have my payment in cash please mate! (only joking)
So here are a couple of pictures from the nite, about 3 hours and 42 rabbits......
