Madge pic

I have a GSP!- my dog coming up for ten years old now. As with most dogs & people partnerships, everyone's generally really biased positvely on their choice, but with as much objectivity as I can offer, I think as long as you can carefully manage the early stages of accepting and teaching that the existing livestock is off-limits as prey, you shoudl be good.

The beauty of my GSP is that she is extremely trainable, really very keen to please and food motivated, so with a bit of skill and patience on our part, can train to do pretty much anything within reason. Really sound with my kid when we got her (kid was about 8) , they're still best frieinds. He stared uni in october and she still looks around the house for him now and again.

As with all puppies, the early years with bundles and bundles of energy is where you need to be on your game to channel that into something positive. I used to take Madge for ten mile + bike rides, never really managed to tire her out.

I've had a few dogs over the years, cross breeds mainly, and I'd say that my GSP Madge was /is one the easiest to train . Mind you, she is still a pain at greeting people who come in the house, she's all over them with excitement, not aggression - never really managed to sort that out. But thats on me not the dog.

TLDR is Yes GSP great but also yes, they need plenty of exercise- like all / most dogs- we do mainly 4 mile walks daily off lead, with much longer bigger at weekends and all is fine.

ypu're all so sharp

new job for me, which is great. Comes with a company car, no cash equivalent, so gotta sell mine.

I tried "motorway" as someone recommended earlier, didnt work so great for me as I got v low offer.

Best place to get a private sale? 2019 BMW 340i

I used to have a job visiting farms, one day I walked around a turkey rearing place with farmer and his JRT: I have never met such an awesome hunting machine (and my own dog is no slouch at this). This dog would point at a place, like a heap of some random farm related stuff, the farmer would kick the pile or move it, the little dog would dive in like a flash and pull out a rat, give it a shake, bit of a chew then done, on to the next. Seemed to love its job. I saw it kill 5-6 in a half hour walk around.

Would defiantly get one, but like with a lot of dogs you have to give them some “work” or they make their own up which often is bad for you / others

Great work, tried this after a bit of a hit and miss series of results and faffing around with sourdough and fancy techniques: loved the casual, relaxed approach and I now have two excellent, well risen loaves

So i'm going to change job soon, the new job i have been offered comes with a company car - lucky me. The trouble is that the new company wont allow a cash instead of car deal, you have to take it.

This means I have to sell my current vehicle and settle up the remaining loan on it, any losses costs will be the cost of changing job (in my mind at least).

The price Ive been quoted from Motorway.com is really good compared to what I got from a BMW dealer that I bought it from, but my question is this: do i pay a local body shop person to sort out the few minor dings that it has (2-300 quid I reckon) or do i proceed with the quoted price only to have to take a hit when they tell me the dings are reducing value? do they always find something to reduce the price of the original quote?

You can buy all kinds of gear for this, it's called Cani cross and is a thing. I think that is supposed to work that the dog pulls you along a bit, so you need a harnes and flexi lenghth of lead and all that stuff. Look at snow paws.com

I could never get my dog to pull, after I suppose a few years of training her to not pull when on the lead. Now she runs along just fine with normal lead and collar. I just learn to read the signs when I think she's about to stop for toilet, sometimes.

My non-expert suggestion would be thAt you practice on the park for a bit

I borrowed the pump at Spitalfield Rapha the other day, shop person who came outside to talk to me (keep an eye on me) had to ask me what they (the DT shifters) were for. I felt old.

i think some cement-based tanking coat would work. I used something like this https://www.permagard.co.uk/basement-waterproofing/cement-tanking in an upright wall application, it has little crystals in the mix which expand when damp and create a waterproof seal. Leave for a week or so o activate, then paint over

i use the cast iron pots as a slow cooker frequently, works a treat for me. The difficulty will be judging the temperature for which you want to slowly slowly cook and not burn while you're out.

I tend to get it started when i'm in and watching it, set the temperature and alter water / fluid content to suit. I prefer putting the casserole in the oven for this purpose.

Hey I have no idea about this my self, but I personally know and recommend this guy : http://thesewingmachinedoctor.co.uk/ - I’ve known Tim for years, a true gent and knows an incredible amount of stuff on many many subjects, (brewing beer, photography etc) give him a call and talk it through with him.

we have a stanley so pretty much like an aga. Its gas, not sure how exactly how hot it gets but always cook on it mainly in winter months (as it heats up the kitchen) - I think I'd struggle massively to do pilgim pan method with it - just dont think it gets hot enough - my advice would be to get the oven bit hot as it gets and chuck pizza in there...should be pretty good.

These “Gujarati mix” come very highly recommend. Like a milder, more complex version of their better known cousin Bombay mix.

Perfect with a little drink in sun. Mind you, also addictive as fuck so be careful

I found them in world food aisle in sainos, but have also seen fleetingly in smaller Tesco metro

great looking cake and good backgroudn story - well done

First decent proper sourdough for me today, tastes great too. Oven spring limited only by the pit lid. All this hot weather is doing good things to the fermentation

Ah that’s a pity, and tricky to clean up!

Looks amazing - good work

Also cheese scones

Picture uploaded ?

My best loaf effort to date, obviously not as good as some on here but as a friend of mine says, you can only piss with the cock you got

This looks great, very interesting and I don’t think I’ve had or even heard using courgette in a sweet cake. How was it?

Looks great to me, would eat that all day

We’ve been loving aubergine in good simple baba ganoush - roasted up and blackened on the bbq, cooled and peeled, add loads of garlic and a bit of tahini parsley and lemon juice - winner. Pomegranate seeds of you have them / like them / can be arsed. Excellent dip with just about anything
