    Most small dogs especially terriers think they are way bigger than they are

    Plenty of small blokes the same.

    Sorry... that one flew over my head. What's a fcuk dog ?   For breeding ?

    Apologies game in this context is a British expression meaning that it will take on or face off to anything regardless of size.
    Brave bordering on stupid.

    Fucking heat getting turned on here in the next 5mins.

    Ditto. Heating on in mid April when normally windows open and shopping in shorts.

    I'm beginning to think they may be a little bit too high strung for me.

    Those I know were not high strung but a good hard working biddable-ish terrier and I agree with Maipenrai that it needs to be given the chance to work. All it needs is a hole in the ground preferably with something to displace.
    I have no idea if they have what I term "show" breeds which are lookalikes without the work in them.

    After my last trip to south east Asia I will get one of these game as f**k dogs.

    Monkey Dog....

    A couple of these will keep me very busy somewhere down the road....

     

     

    My gamekeeper friend had to put covers over the fox masks he had hanging on the wall as his Patterdale was tearing out the plaster with his claws running up the wall trying to reach them. He just wouldn't stop.

    Keep this lot away from fire and high heat.


    Am I the only one who finds these women unattractive?

    I just gave all my old school measuring stuff to my keen as mustard apprentice last month as I guess I'm retiring for the last time

    Micrometers snap gauges calipers etc some had been given to me by my grandad and had usmc 1941 on them 

    Sad in one way but good that you are passing it on to someone who has a use and will, hopefully, use and appreciate them.

  8. Many a pick truck loaded down with clothes, water and food went from Phuket to the Kao Lak area donated by Thai's and foreigners alike. There was no discrimination on who received help.
    Many a foreigner almost emptied their wardrobes to donate.
    Others emptied their wallets or purses when a whip round was made in the small beer bar area in Karon. 300,000 baht in under an hour. This was given to "Freddie Mercury" who turned it into the above supplies and shipped it north. I just wish that he hadn't showed us all the photos he took though.
    Many foreigners volunteered their time and expertise to build temporary accommodation in Khao Lak.

    Many, many acts of kindness and compassion were seen. 3 months later all back to normal unfortunately.

    I have worked in 10 Asian countries but Myanmar was the one that gave me problems due to Barclays which is why I drew the initial connection with  @karon steve

    I have made short trips to Myanmar but haven't stayed there for any length of time. The Karon name I use is because I had the Bonsai  beer bar followed by Our House a bar, restaurant & guest house in Karon beach Phuket.
    As far as I know I am not on a watch list but who knows. I do not have a criminal record and have only ever been stopped by Customs twice in my many years of travel. 
    At the time I did wonder why the IO was a little abrupt this trip so there may well be something in what has been said. I will ask next time.
