Didn't know there was no Memorial to the 22000 + British that died on D-Day. You think the French might have done something as a thank you to them men. Can't understand the French attitude towards us where as the Dutch I always found friendly. While hitch hiking years ago in Holland a guy stopped for me and my pal "said were you going" "Hook of Holland "I said "sorry he said not going that way" "that okay". It was a road straight as a die, he was way off in the distance when I said he's reversing back and he was. He stopped and said get in "I will take you there" "no mate it's okay we are

Watching the D-Day anniversary footage on TV,very humbling,the old guys are a different type of generation.self-deprecating and humble R.I.P their comrades.Has anyone on here done a Battlefield tour in france,any reccomendations as to companies that organise them?

Just for a brief moment imagine what it must have been like they truly were the bravest of the brave and must be remembered for the rest of eternity.

Always amazed how the country pulled together and mobilized during ww11 , everything from the steel works, coal to keep the country running , munitions factorys ect , all those who gave there life fighting , certainly a humbling time and I have the deepest respect to all those involved

I watched a lot of it on telly yesterday morning.....that old paratrooper was brave fella 95 and doing a jump....got some balls....it was nice listning to the old fellas talking and telling a few storys and things.....then I herd churchills speech.....the one where he says we will fight them on the beaches...we will fight them in the streets..we will never surrender....gave me goos bumps ...hairs sticking up on the back of neck.....

My Sisters Dad was killed on D day , that is Her on the left hand side me and Mam are on the right , the picture was taken in the early 50s on board the Golden Galleon at Great Yarmouth, Mam never once mentioned him and it was not until she died that her sister let something slip when she said that Janices hair was the same has her Dads .

Si hasn't been to jail and he got one, even though it looks like he should be in jail lol

I often get emails asking about job vacancies and advice about getting into pest control. Recently a member on here sent me a message asking advice about courses and starting working in pest control. I thought I'd answer his question on here then other members may like to offer their opinion, or even tell me if I'm talking rubbish. Also others will have more experience with training etc. Once upon a time the big companies would take on switched on lads with a bit of practical experience and then put them through the courses and qualifications. It seems to me these days that if you want t

I was watching some of the coverage , and interviews with veterans, We owe those guys so much . Then the BBC couldn’t help but get all anti Brexit and got their little remain message in . They were interviewing this old girl , who was pro remain and quoted Macron who told Trump “America is only great when it works with its allies “. America was working with its allies “us” and after Brexit it could work with us even more . They were trying to say how we have been apart of Europe for so long and it’s all a great shame that we are leaving. The truth is we were fighting the genocidal Germans , th

Never underestimate the challenge of shooting mice: Try that with your .22 rimmy. ?

No doubt I will let you all know, but if it’s shit I will keep quiet should be here tomorrow

They have my eternal gratitude and thanks.

Put up the actual ingredients list

A fukcing sanctuary ???

The new buzzword seems to be 'Pest Management' rather than Control. Like you say, sales skills are more important nowadays. In today's corporate world it's more about selling peace of mind and compliance rather than actually killing anything. I'll stick with my moles. In fact, when my PL next comes round for renewal I'm thinking I'll have them take rodenticides off the policy. Moles, wasps, squirrels and rabbits. Won't make me rich but sure as hell a lot less hassle and what I enjoy anyway.

Good article that......can you find the one where the old veteran said he was glad his pals got slaughtered in their thousands so that we could have transgender toilets, 35 year mortgages and a debt that his great grandchildren’s great grandchildren will still be paying off ?

Good job we're just talking rifles here. If I had to choose between a twelve bore and the 25 then that'd be a struggle....

I was always told meat makes milk in carnivores,don't worry if the jill is thin just feed her up on meat.I cant see milk being a natural diet for anything that is past the nursing age.

The yanks kill boar with a 22lr . If you put the bullet in the right place a 243 will kill anything, there is no reason a 223 wouldn’t, it can kill a roe deer in Scotland but not in England, they must breed them soft up there .?

What I was trying to say Sandy 75 years on and only just a Memorial that's being paid for by the British, and some French people protesting about that. You think the French would have put up a Memorial on every beach to respect the men that fell so they could have their freedom and country back. Cheers Arry

It's marginally OTT for rats, squirrels, rabbit etc! I grant you they are not all like this, but rabbit with ONE.243 V-Max at around 100 yards!

hats off to them ,, and a thank you brave men

Other than the rimmy I do only have one rifle for everything. The 25-06. No desire to get in another either. I'd be confident in that calibre for anything found on these isles. It's not too much for fox and it's not too little for the largest stuff. It's a lot like a 243 really......... just better.

@mackem here is a small town archery set up this is just on the edge of the town. Pretty cool set up

Well i had a good talk with one of the lads from the fire arms department to day he was very help full in deed even told me what to do to make the room extra safe and what the concerns were regarding my sons past and what to put down on the forms explaining every thing from what happened (some of the lads know but im not putting it on here) it may be a case of storing the rifles some where else but if i were to put extra security in place they may except it but not a 100% sure ,,he would have to talk to his boss told him i wanted fac air and shot gun only He

well done beany, I bred a litter from a very good fast first cross saluki greyhound bitch that I bred myself, I put her to a top class open race dog, and kept two bitches back one killed its self at a year old running into something and the other at about four doing the same, they could kill a hare in a bend or two and looked awesome, but they had no wind, and their feet were shocking, I put the same bitch to a well known pure saluki and got fast feathered pups, the bitch I kept was a five out of five bitch, and was at home on any land was never injured and lived to 15.

Rock and Roll lol Cheers, D.

The sire has put a lot of stuff to bed and sired some good dogs. The dam i dont know to much about but looked a capable dog. she was only 2 year old when she was in pup the mating was accidental not a planed affair. The reason behind me taking one of these pups was i had just lost a picardy cross that left a big impression on me, and these pups came up a week after losing him sort of seemed meant to be and there ends the story lol

Firearms department have just phoned me to say , can you send in your licence so we can regenerate a new certificate with 17 HMR AND .22 RIMFIRE ON IT ? Start looking now

Scotts the fish restaurant you mean ?.....been there many times lovely grub,its one of the oldest restaurants in London if not the oldest first opened in the 1840,s i think it was....round the corner is another of my favourites Benares in Berkeley Square give it a go mate next time your that way ?

Now that’s a proper countryman AT, good to see✌?

it's not natural for ferrets.

There is f**k all meat on a day old chick it’s useless for a nursing Jill. Just feed smaller amounts of meat more times through the day and put a frozen piece in at night. Clean out in the morning and start the process again ... it’s simple really ........

?? exactly how can a carnivore have too much meat? surely meat/whole prey is better for them than any kibble ? This time of year I limit meat due to the flies but winter they get whole carcasses

Day old chicks are shit food for a ferret .......

To much meat ??? they are a carnivore not fukcing vegan ......

They dont give out Olympic golds and world titles Sid you have to keep it realistic....is he good compared to Ali/Frazier/Louis etc no.....is he good enough to be around the top of todays crop yes of course he is he,s proved that.....i dont rate any of todays heavyweights compared to other eras but i also dont think any of them can dominate. if Joshua,Wilder,Fury,Ruiz even Dillian Whyte all fought each other 10 times each they would probably all come out about even infact id still fancy Joshua to beat Fury more times than he would lose to him as Fury is made for his style Fury doesnt tak

Last fecking runt I picked died on me within a week, some loyalty that little fecker showed eh

Nope your wrong ... kitten and puppy substitute milk is fine but it doesn’t have as good a protein base as goats milk and egg mix ......

If you want to go googling stuff google amino acids in goats milk and you will see why it is far better than cows milk for building an animal up ......
