fun lure coursing

[tanya1]

would any of you wanmt to have a go at lure coursing/ strait racing your dogs just for fun? i have a lure here and the most perfect ground to do it on , where i train mine and close to my house so hat drink and warm welcome when we got back if you wanted?

we could do it at £1 ? 50p a run with a £1 donation to the club each person wishing to run dogs?

what do you think?

01493 445655 07725465352 if you think you would like to have a go and its ok with johnny

I think Star would be up for that. He's got the chase instinct.
However, Sugar would probably prefer jumping up daddy, putting her dirty paws all over me as she usually does!

[tanya1]

well she is then the top dog in the club in the lets see who cn get daddy or mummy dirtiest comp then!

seen this track last summer brilliant nice flat no holes would run my boys on it
to far for me one day (i can but dream)

[Sara]

Sounds like fun Tanya

wonder what Palace would make of that

[cathy]

Hi, Tanya and everyone,

Yes, PLEASE!!! Tiggy and I are new to the club and have yet to make a 'bark-in-the-park'. He's a very large brindle ex-racer who has, apparently, also been used for hare coursing by gipsies, so I can't let him off the lead when we're out. He's desperate to run but the only thing he's allowed to chase now is his daily pig's ear, and my 'lawn' now looks like the goal-mouth of a football pitch! Oh to let him have a proper run and some fun to boot! (Hi, Sara - I think we're neighbours?)

[robandjo]

[robandjo]

[cathy]

Thanks, Tanya, Any date will do for me so will leave it up to others.

Hi, robandjo, BetTiggs will beat May on the flat!!

[robandjo]

Hay Tanya that sounds like the first challenge for you!!

Right we have to get May into full training, well once we can get her off the sofa!!!

Watch out Tiggs!!

[Johnny]

I'd just like to say welcome to Robandjo and Cathy.
We'll look forward to seeing you soon.

[cathy]

Thanks, Johnny,
When do we become grown-up gerys? And are you a gery-atric? (Just joking!) Thanks for your welcome. Hope to see you at Earlham in a few weeks.
Cathy

[Johnny]

You'll have to ask Stuart about technical stuff like that!

Honestly though - I don't know. I thought it was 100, but I could be wrong.

[Sara]

Hi Cathy & Rob & Jo to the boards

I know we haven't actually met yet Cathy but you've met my husband and my son I believe (poor you) only kidding!

Next time I see you walk past my house I'll run out to say hello, instead of just thinking to myself 'That must be Cathy with that handsome brindle gery!'

Tanya - this sounds like loads of fun so I think we'll all have to descend on yours some time soon

[cathy]

Hi, Sara,

I hope you didn't see Tiigs do anything he shouldn't outside your house!!! (I always carry bags, and he's not allowed to even thingy his leg in a private garden (as if he COULD thingy his leg!!!) Your son is lovely. (So is your husband, but don't get paranoid!!!) I'll look forward to being accosted next time I pass.
Cathy

[cathy]

Stuart - HELP! Re my last message to Sara, why, when I typed a message referring to Tiggy "c-o-c- and another letter - k - ing" his leg was it is changed in the print to "THINGY his leg"? Dogs do this sort of thing many times a day. (Except Tiggs who can't!) And we're all adults on this site. We can all tell the difference between a 'thingy' and a male chicken!!! At least, that's what men tell me. I expect Sara thinks I am very wierd by now!
Cathy

[tanya1]

well if you are weird hun then you will fit in perfectly !!!! i will be the one with many dogs and all in a tangle!!!

[Tracey]

Hiya, So what is 'fun lure coursing'? Do you have to have a dog with a brain? Or could Meg come along and try it?
Sounds like fun, so whens it happening?
We're looking forward to meeting you all (even the weird ones !! )
Tracey.

No, you're not weird - but like Tanya said, you'll fit right in if you are!

Hi Tracey. I sincerely hope you dont have to have a dog with a brain because we're going to be in trouble if that's the case!!

[cathy]

Sorry, Sara, Mum won't let me take in any more strays - our bungalow's not big enough since Tiggy arrived! (What's it worth not to tell him what you said?)

By the way, how do I get 'smilies' into my messages? Can I just 'click' on one somewhere or do I have to learn how to type in something like "- : )) * ;: " ?

[Johnny]

Hi Cathy: You click onto a smilie icon, and it should put the (html) code into your text.

[cathy]

Hi, Johnny, I must be thick as well as wierd - I don't have any smilie icons to click onto! Some other message boards I use have a box of icons to choose from, but I can't find any on this page. Are they hiding from me, do you think?
