Pets cos I'm in sheltered accomodation, but I've mentioned this before, there's a lady upstairs gets permission to have her friends two dogs occasionally , well.she had em.for the weekend ,one of is a wee little thing chihuahua cross or summat, anyways it makes it way down the stairs and into my flat, my front door is always open, so.in it comes, I can't begin.to.describe how the little chap.lifts me, it gives me a lick on the chops , then beds down on my settee

There's a reason for this and it's intentional and if anyone thinks it's a humanitarian reason they really need their head examined. I genuinely wonder how the IQ in this country (and others) could have plummeted so rapidly in such a short space of time that people believe the pish they are being fed.

For the sake of twenty quid I would just go to the vets.

Mate make sure you get plenty of interim payments and don’t let the blokes credit get to high, I would have told him to f**k off when he came back to you as he is only interested in money and not you or your work so is more likey to try and wriggle out of paying you at the end have had 40 years dealing with people and that’s an early red flag mate ?

Did a Delmonico joint, aka poor man's brisket or chuck. And a pork collar both been on since 12 , needed a bit longer on the beef but kids bedtime and all that... Cut both in half so have for a gentle warm through in the week and will probably be better as had longer to rest etc...it's decent , tasty at least...

At loughgall rally today and this is parked at the side of us .. proper classic setup

Proper breakfast

Just out of curiosity, for people keeping chickens over there in the UK , are chicken tractors popular or even a thing ? Was discussing this design for my new build ( usually build hoop styles but with the cost of metal and got curious about building one out of wood and A frames seem the easiest) Btw for thos who don't know chick tractors after basically just portable enclosures commonly used by people with small properties and alternative agriculture types. You just pick them up and move them every few days so they get fresh grass and stuff. Loved mine because I don't have a stinking ch

Sorry @mackem I'll be back at it tomorrow

They have always believed in what they were told. They once marched into machine gun fire for 'freedom and democracy' without even asking how their freedom was threatened. Maybe it's a human trait to survive by following the leader, even when they can see their leader is cheating them. Personally I see the latest form of consumption to be the consumption of debt. The flooding of towns and cities with migrants pushes the residents out to new build houses with mortgages and electric car finance. That's the only product we are now, really, needed to consume. What once made Britain suc

Third farmer lucky .Too much cover about and pre rut never good a combination but found one and the client obliged by putting him down .

Some legends here ,most gone now ,

Bit nostalgic for me today walking of Bolberry Down, cliffs I used to climb down using 200 foot of rope to fish. The Best Ray marks in the country for Blonde Ray, Small Eyed and Spotted Ray. The nearest point is a mark me and two mates pioneered back in 1980, one hell of a mark for Ray. This picture taken from the other direction with a ships boiler. Massive prawns in that boiler as you can walk around it on a spring tide. The middle point is where the British record Blonde Ray comes from. The lads in my club used to swim across a gully to get to it. Was k

old school vaccines are great these new ones like covid i wouldn’t give a dog see how measle dropped off the map but with the covid one people vaccinated are still dropping and catching it you have just proven the point the covid vaccine is shit

We’ve had the money chat, and I’ve set my stall out, I’ve told him what I want, I won’t charge any more if it runs over or less if I finish early ( not much chance of that) I don’t want to come across as Ronnie Kray but he will pay me when I finish, I’ve never had anyone not pay or get money off, if we have an agreement that’s what it is, I wouldn’t ask for more so they can’t ask for less

We don’t pay water charges here. They tried to bring in water charging when I first moved here and almost to a man, the whole country told them to shove their bills up their arse and didn’t pay…..so they had to scrap it. The argument is, it falls out the f***ing sky almost constantly and government get more than enough money off people for everything else so they can provide a civilised country with water to drink ! What’s naive and not a little self defeating is people keep thinking they have no power over these things.

Who pays for the pumping stations, the pipe lines, the sewage systems the drainage systems, the purification systems , etc ? If we want to drink from muddy puddles like the niggers, then it would be free. Of course we shouldn’t have sold off our water companies to foreign hedge funds but to think potable drinking water should be supplied to our homes free of charge is naive. Cheers.

Never thowt the day would come when I would entertain this little critter that makes his way into my home mate, always had working dogs , but can u see round bends pal, no u can't and thank f**k we can't

Don’t forget the trousers.

Strimming along the main fire break, and a bit of bracken beating

We would call that a Chicken Ark Mate. Cheers Arry

Another roe buck for a client this morning on some far away permission outskirts of Gloucester .

Stopped in in a Farm Restaurant/ cafe and they had these silhouettes of hares I liked. Cheers Arry

Walk at Bolberry Down today put a bit about it in fishing section as I used to fish under these cliffs. Looking down at a small cove called Soar Mill Cove you cant quite see the sand. Cheers Arry

Your not wrong, I worked as a mechanic for 25 years and never once had anyone turn up without the money to collect their motor on the other hand my twin brother has a dry lining company and when we were younger the amount of people that wouldn’t pay was ridiculous, we spent a lot of time visiting people at home or on sites, it was always private builds or small building companies, most of them were because he was young and they thought they could take the piss, now he mainly does commercial because they are on a 14 day account so you know you will get paid or the bill goes up and we are gettin

I reckon a lot of people liked not going to work during the lockdown - we spawned a breed of malingerers that are happier to play the system than earn an honest day's money.

I know next to nothing about terrier work but I love l listening to these old characters stories. .. I've met a few of them back in the past...

Why……it was found contrary to U.K. Law….. ECHR Laws are not binding on the U.K. since Brexit….Ye would have to withdraw from UN charter of human rights as well. Be alongside Russia and Belarus….. It’s a hawarden kite……Tories trying to hold onto power… take away your right to protest…..human rights…shouldn’t be globalisation ye fear….Tory Dictatorship

Booster vaccination with an mRNA vaccine was highly protective against hospitalisation and death in omicron cases (HR for hospital admission 8–11 weeks post-booster vs unvaccinated: 0·22 [0·20–0·24]), with the protection afforded after a booster not being affected by the vaccine used for doses 1 and 2. from Just a moment... WWW.THELANCET.COM part of your problem is your getting mixed up between omicron and delta.

Bang on mate... its take it or leave it on my prices, I know our worth now, if you do a decent job you should be paid the right money. There's no other industry where you get f****d about for money like the building game, long payment terms are a thing of the past for me, been bit a couple of times, its almost like people dont see it as real money..

In the UK, Hatsan are not an expensive gun in fact they are very much an economy based gun and not worth messing about with. It would be cheaper and much more effective to simply buy another Hatsan in .22 as the task would need good gunsmith to carry out the work, just not worth the expense. Phil

If you shop around there's vets not much dearer and it should lessen the risk of them being dodgy jabs.

Water should be nationalised

Is it just a coincidence that the conspiracy theorists in this thread are the same ones telling each other where to buy the best weed in another thread .Uncanny really lol,mint .Same ones see all manner of shite in the countryside but just can’t seem to put their finger on proving it .Lol, another mint from me .

I love mountains,real mountains,not british hills but decent peaks with glacial valleys and real peaks,sharp air and altitude.

Never had a proper collie cross before. They seem have lots of character. Bit full of beans but other than that so far so good

Shot this yesterday with the ergo. Just like how they feel in the hand and the straight wrist shooting style I'm shite with anyother frame it's like going back to when I first started shooting missing by miles ?

I have to clarify I did take a few with the dog but 90 %were shot ,

Slipping a dog on these lads didn't always go the dogs way ,broken toes or legs were always a possibility,I preferred to stalk and shoot them but the haul back was hoffific at times due to the terrain

Got a corn fed chicken on , simple rub ....
