No, they put a new roof on a few years back. Money seems no object to the Markets people. They have just spent £ 600,000 on a new area, which is less than the size of an 18 yard area, and all it has turn out to be is a basic slabbed open area. You counld'nt make it up.

Is this something to do with you milkpot ?

btw, I dont read the mail, I see it in the telegraph this morning :dry: but cant find it on their website.

I know this is a weird post but Porno's fighting our dogs?????

Shes mental. She wants to see if the Bangkeow can kill Junk Yard dog.

I know the Thai BK is horrific but it's no match for Junk Yard dog.

Must make a change from her fighting you :whistling:


Or do you mean she's trying to make your dogs fight each other?

No point in my saying anything, really

Thanks for the animal kingdom update :thumbsup:


'kin'ell...these animals aren't half costing you some dosh? I can't believe you nearly paid 25,000 baht for an Owl? :clueless:

Mirkys animal kingdom. June Update.

Been quite an exciting month in the Zoo.

I'd had an avairy built by a Thai bloke. As it goes, he didn't make a bad job of it but it wasn't perfect. The Bangkeaw dog managed to get in. Really tough to keep a dog like that out if it gets the smell.

No harm done but I knew I had to make it more secure. The Thai guy had not made it exactly like I said. I got him back and paid him to move it and make it better. I put the Kites and Eagle on the upstairs balcony tethered to their perch things I bought at the hawk club.

Woke up next morning to find my Black Kite had bitten through it's leg jesses and had flown off. Still can't believe it. I was proper gutted. No sign of it at all.
We walked around looking for it blowing the whistle but couldn't see it. I didn't write it off though. It's well trained. I thought it would come home when it was hungry.

The Thai Bangkeaw has finally broken me. We had a big kennel type area made. No way can this dog live in the house. I love them to bits but fuck knows why. All they do is bite and kill things. They are fantastic guard dogs though. Really grow on you. So faithful. You could never have them in UK. They are just not safe around anyone other than the owner and they bite. Normally when you go to somebodies house and they have a big dog they tell you ' Oh dont worry he's ok'.

I'd never say that with a Bangkeaw and neither would anyone who owns one. You cant do anything with them. If you hold out a treat and tell it to sit it just tries to take your hand off.

Anyway, back to my Black kite.

Now just imagine this. You know what Thai's are like. :lol3:

After 3 days, Porno saw the Black kite (name Si-Far) lightning in Thai sitting on next doors roof.
There are loads of people outside talking in the road. She calmly walks out with the falconry gauntlet on and just waves a chicken in the air.

Si-Far flies down, snatches it out of her hand, flies back up on the roof and eats it.

Porno gets another chicken and waves that. Si-Far flies down to the glove and she takes him back home. Cool as a cucumber. :lol3:

She said all the people were going ' How you do that. Can't believe. Ohhh what happen. How she can do that. She very good'

I'd love to have seen it.

While the Hawks were sharing the balcony one of Porno's rabbits went missing. Yes, I mean totally missing. The Eagle looked a little fatter. :lol2:

My mate up the road could take no more. He loves rabbits. He offered to take the last one and give it a good home. We said yes and thank fuck that's the end of those smelly bastards. Anyone with a daughter wanting one say no FFS. Rabbits are the worst pets on earth. Filthy creatures. Stink. I hate them.

The Eagle is getting massive and eats between 4-6 small chickens a day. Very easy to train. We have ended up with two birds of prey that both come back. 1 Crested Serpent Eagle and 1 Black kite. That will do me for now. Once they are fully trained up I will consider spending out on something big money. I like a hawk you can get here for around 30,000 baht. It's called a Changable Hawk. They are lovely.

I'd still love another Akita and would buy one instantly if I saw a large male. The Thailand dog show is soon. I think that's the place to get one.

For some sick reason I'd like a large male Bangkeaw as well.

We went to Chatuchak today for some plants. I want a fast growing plant to cover the bird avairy. As usual we ended up buying more pets. I'm not happy at my failures regarding keeping koi carp. I've tried again today. Bought 6 lovely fish and all the gear. So far so good. The biggest problem is keeping those white stork bastard things from eating them.

That's it folks. You never know what will happen next month.:sofahide:

Can we get a whip round started and get this clown some professional help ?

Ok, I know this thread is a bit tongue in cheek and for a giggle really.
Credit where it's due though.

Porno is mental etc. I know that.

We went to the hawk school general meeting tonight. She won the best female falconer award. There is quite a few girls there as well. I was well chuffed for her.

She has trained Si-Far the Black kite from a chic. No help at all and no previous knowledge of falconry. She's trained him to fly solo and come back.

In my life I have never seen a natural lke her with vicious animals.
She can handle Bangkeaw dogs and Eagles without batting an eyelid.
I think it's a Thai thing. They have a disregard for animals that works with the savage breeds.

The RSPCA would have a field day over here.
