In these times of doom and gloom I had a real nice bit of news the other day... A friend of mine donated his kidney to one of his best mates, they'd played in a band together as teenagers (the lad he donated to actually got to the finals of the voice)... I spoke with him last week, he was sore but in good spirits... I know everyone is a tough man etc blah... but to me that is a huge thing to do, real show of courage..to put yourself under the knife for a friend is massive...imo Hes a good lad anyway, but showed a real bit of class with this one

We would start 4 keen young lads tomorrow if we could get them, most of the youth today are work shy fcukwits. Sounds horrible but it's the truth.

We Bought a burger van few weeks back and did a complete refit,all brand-new kit-just put the Mrs out to work in it this week. averaging 200/250 a day on the first week...fingers crossed it keeps building up for us,Mrs is working the pub still evenings and running her events business on weekends etc,I'm working 6/7 days a week most weeks..got to do what you got to do to survive....heard rumours things will start to slow down but I'm not worried to be honest...there's always a way to earn money,if your hungry for it,cut back on a few none essentials and it's all good ?

Don't blame anyone who works for cash me and the wife get 500 a month from pensions in previous job's 100 pound of it is paid in tax it would be a bit more palatable if our taxes were spent on things that benefit us all instead of foreign aid and keeping illegal invader's in hotel's.

I own and run a small business, we are busy. But crippling raw material prices are going crazy. I have just come out of my fixed term electric, I do use 3 phase electric for some of our machinery, I was paying £7000 a year and my new bill is £33,000 , so it's gone up a whopping £26,000 A year. Seriously with that and crippling material costs I don't know how next year will go. I was lucky to stay open during covid and worked right through it, I have a cracking team of staff who are worth there weight in gold and who go above and beyond. In fact during covid when a lot of business got a free

STOP…….VOTING……..FOR…….THESE……..PEOPLE !

I agree with you mate only thing some kids are not academically inclined even with the best education in the world one of my grandsons who is coming up to 15 is that way though his work ethic is good for a kid his age through the summer he has got a tidy grass cutting round and now with his polite mannerism has got numerous dogs to walk for pay i just hope he gets good enough grades so he can get an apprenticeship in joinery he wants when he leaves school.

I work in a courier delivery warehouse and for the time of year it's the quietest i have seen it the 8 year's i have been their . I am fortunate that the wife works in care and we both get small pensions from previous employment and it wont be as devastating to us like it will to younger working class couples who i think it will be a wake up call to some about debt and borrowing.

Haven’t had a lot of time working on my own projects for awhile due to museum work but manage to finish this sika for a client cheers RR

Evening Campers Getting some heat into this damp canvas

BBQ Ribeye Steak tripled cooked chips my own lettuce, cucumber, onion and and sun gold tomato's salad with pepper corn sauce. Cheers Arry

Wouldn’t Matter mate if there rigging every other election around the world what makes the corrupt Uk any different one things for sure they wouldn’t be letting any other party in the door that isn’t under control

My daughter and her boyfriend moved over to Swansea for his work (he is some kind of scientist !) and she is a PA for some big firm in London which she does remotely, they are on over a grand a week between them, no kids, no debt, no credit cards, car is owned, just a rented house and they are going to move back soon because they don’t have hardly any money left to themselves every week ! She phoned me last night and just said “this is shit Dad”……they don’t want to just work for the man and I don’t blame them. f**k all future for young people in that country now.

have said it before and will say it again if voting made any difference we would not be allowed to do it.

Scum of the earth !!

Recessions will always crop up from time to time. Slows the borrowers down. Literally everything you can buy on monthly now. It seems crazy that if you take out a monthly payment on a washing machine for example you will pay more than the richer man who buys it outright. I do believe this borrowing money trend will get a lot people in trouble

Carhart is tougher than an otters bite i can guarantee ?

There's lads who work for lecky companies, come out in the van, dig up the pavement, proper job, that's what I would be doing in that situation.

North face has gone to shit.You know once they start making tracksuits and slippery and selling it in Sports Direct that its all been shipped out somewhere Berghause is alright still but if I buy anything new now its Rab all the way

I feel sorry for lads that are gunner struggle to look after there families..if it gets to that it’s a kick in the teeth for them an if there still in work there have there pants pulled down with higher tax

Life goes on mate, it has to ? Cheers.

Oi, f***ing up the nice stories is my job ! Lol

Met Andrew several years ago,.. he came to our house with his hunting partner of that time,...to collect a Oz Cattle Dog hybrid pup... I found them both to be genuine lads... Love the stamp of dogs that he now keeps....?

They can live by the beach in Donegal for an absolute fraction of the money and she can still do her job mate, then they can enjoy a bit of travelling while they are still young and save a few quid as well. Wouldnt take them long to save up enough to buy a little do up place outright here……exactly how it should be imho mate. Im just happy that they ain’t like me and can only see the graft, some of these young people have a better world view than I ever did and they are seeing the bigger picture earlier in their lives than I ever did too.

Where’s the meat you raving fukcing homo … no wonder your the size of a 10 year old girl.

Lurpak spreadable?

I went old school tonight.

Amber is an English foxhound bitch I brought at the tender of 12 weeks old, at present she's about 8 months old .I've taken her with the rest of my pack of rabbiting /bushing dogs from day one, and she has never been a pup, apart from the odd play with another member ,when she felt like it . Amber is all about work, her cast has always had plenty of distance, even at such a young age .She is a delight to share time with.

There’s some right stuck up Fannies go there mate .You’d love them .The type that wash the dogs paws before it gets in the truck ffs .Wont do cover ,won’t brace birds ,won’t do sewelling ,won’t stay in line unless beat with a bat nor help put stuff away end of day .If I was the keeper I’d piss them off that much they jacked but he inherited them from last chap who really couldn’t give a rats arse if the day went well or not .Spent most of his time either watching guns or on his phone .I went there for a day while back and he was stood with the guns barking orders to the beaters in the wood ffs

A full crop after putting in the effort! #11

Until just before lockdown I had a joinery shop attached to the office making sash windows ,brace and ledger doors etc but so glad I ditched that and now outsource it .I could see the money literally floating out the door . I too had a lad on that wanted subs into next month .I know pay his rent by standing order ,taxable and no subs whatsoever . Hes docked at source for the rent ..I’m amazed what the hell he spends it on because he has no other half nor hobbies .Might be hookers and beer I guess . For my part and my business I now have office people working at home 3 days a we

Yeah seen the stouts great work ? Think the trouts taking the flys though will take some beating. A can see one of them in an orvis tackle shop above some hardy reels in cabinet. If I was doing them that's where I'd be taking them to sell doing the rounds at all the money shops. The frog work he's done too an the terrapin something else them. Reminds me of bates motel told Norman bates lol.

Just got gifted this off a mate of mine, one of his own creations. Durban poison x skittles......pretty f***ing tasty and hits the spot! Yokel

Carhartt and CG in the cold, I know a guy in Alberta who welds outdoors in the winter and wears nothing but carhartt.

Best thing anyone can do for their kids with the world at 8 billion is a good education, the world is shrinking, populations are becoming more mobile, there's going to be fierce competition in the workplace, its coming.

I agree with you mate and as parents we only want the best for them and more importantly to be happy.

Madness mate your Daughter and her boyfriend should have their own property if the system was not rigged to have more folk renting than buying. Lad's at work who rent cannot believe me when i tell them i worked six months solid overtime at the pit to get a grand deposit on a terraced house for 9 and half grand in 1981 in a decent area as they know they will never own their own home.

Mushroom and garlic Wellington, shredded cabbage salad, sprouts and sweet potato chips.

homo clobber for plumbers and joiners

Amber is small for her breed, she was bred at a kennel that's the only one that breeds Foxhounds in New Zealand. At only 8 months old, She has some growing to do yet ,but fair to say, she is small for her breed. I really don't like big dogs for my type of hunting, it serves no real purpose for me. I have a friend who runs a pure GWP dog who is huge, a couple of hours in, and he's done, loudly puffing after crashing around in the heavy cover. The dog sounds like a freight train coming ....

Used to be marathons mate .

Just got back still running on generators 24hrs on 12volt led lights and a roaring fire is all I really need ?
