I put the shutters up this morning to let in some air and got back in bed. A few minutes later this little chap walked in through the patio door. Had a walk around the room then spent a few minutes taking in the view. last week there were two golden orioles feeding off a rowan bush just outside the window.

Iv'e just bought a old horsebox lorry to convert into a camper/living truck as such,a 1985 Bedford TL and a good chance it's the newest lorry i have ever bought ,mind you full service history and only 25,000 miles on the clock it's as good a old lorry as your'll get without a full restore and i'm busting to get going on it and get back to me roots man ..

First time I done my own Chips in the Air fryer and yeah good. BBQ Dexter Rib Eye Steak was proper job. Cheers Arry

Mack ,you disappoint me !,I was hoping you'd replied with a pic of a kodiak bear at the foot of your bed and 2 elk rutting in the ensuite! ?

Love octopus!

Had some great times away in the old lorry you can abuse them them a little more than a camper van! lol

Here's a pic of it in the raw as such...

Couple mine

interesting questions wilf....and I can tell you I ain't a clue to the answer ...like you say where do we draw the line.... could sugar be included in all that...we got by without it a good few hundred years ago ...now it's responsible for loads of health issues...this might be an extrem example of course

When Mack omes up with all these areas of the world he's been to I always feel like saying well, I've been to Blackpool twice, Scarborough, Llandudno and Whitby. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

do a photo blog type thing on it mate...be very interesting to see how you progress with it

Yes, it is a railway tool. It was used by platelayers when they used to tamp and level the track. It is all done by on track machines nowadays. The uneven track was initially detected using the human eye and sighting along a length of track, 2 metal flags were then clipped to the rail that needed adjustment. The ballast was dug out under the line to be adjusted and jacked up by hand. The curved pointy end was aimed under the sleeper to help support it and make a gap to hammer individual pieces of ballast under the sleeper to pack it to the required level. Either end of the tool could be used f

Shelter I knocked up a few years back where I walk the dogs

What's happened to your libertarian principles mate? I'm not saying that as a jibe. You cannot believe in governments letting people get on with their lives and then start laying down exceptions. The vast majority of people would steer clear of hard drugs just as they do now. Legalisation would stop criminalising people. Trying to stop people drug taking is about as successful as prohibition was.

Got sent some footage of a bullX taking a moose ??(it's a little mongrel really, jumped from a canoe onto the back of a moose swimming a lake, and latched on).

Had a few old Bedford TK's in my time, horse boxes both petrol and derv, little tipper and a mint nick 7 1/2 t hiab , never had TL before but the same running gear as such. This ones a little 220 turbo and it's only a 6 ton lorry with a short wheel base,just big enough for my tribe and yet small enough to not have to drive a big lorry everywhere,plus i'm in to my vintage motors and i will be taking it to some shows and rallies so a few different time ahead for sure and can't wait to get going on it... I will get on that blog thing once i get it back home...

Nice....young inquisitive bird in your bedroom.....lucky chap

The rut is on here in Wiltshire and m6 client tonight wanted to see a buck called .First six pointer seen sat down on the edge of a cut corn field and we waited an hour for him to stand .Gave him a call with tge but tall and in he trotted .Client was fair experienced and dropped him about 180 m .He was well made up with his buck .Back out tomorrow morning for a medal if the stars align .

Stopping folks driving/going on holiday because of recreational drug use,will see the country grind to a halt imo...may just be enough for folks to finally wake up and think f**k you...the government have a plan,the revenue it will bring is to much to just pass bye imo. I've watched drugs of allsorts f**k folks and families right up over the yrs... growing up,I would kick a football,and there would be smack needles discarded everywhere,friends,big brothers/uncles/aunties,folks I knew growing up,lots of them ain't here no more...I have found/seen enough bodies to last me a lifetime...

I personally don’t think the “it stops crime” argument holds any water at all…… Bricklayers lay bricks Painters paint walls Criminals do crime Doing away with prohibition didn’t stop the mafia and legalising drugs won’t make all the county lines mobs go out and start earning an honest living, they just find something else howling to do.

My n*bhhead Coming on ok - I'm a bit of a novice really so trying not to ruin him.

His seen things I only read about ! I count the county signs down till I get back on home turf ! Probably why I don't see bullx's on back of a moose !

Bloody canoe saved my bacon the other day when it was 40 degrees... took the dogs down the river(Trent)..to cool off...that border terrier pup of mine decided to swim right across to other side the little c**t...lol..and would she fook come back . luckily a family on the other side picknicking..had a canoe..put her in the front and paddled her back...wished I had a phone to take a pic...

Our lovely home secretary Priti Patel has worked for both the tobacco and alcohol industries. However, she's suddenly decided to go hard on cannabis possession and is planning to stop british citizens from flying and driving if caught in possession 3 times. She's also planning to put electronic tags on offenders. Unbelievable hypocrisy. Personally I believe the authorities lost the war on drugs decades ago. The whole lot should be legalised for people over 18. Cops should be directing their attention to serious crime and not what people do in their own time.

Question for you, "They" legalised tobbaco which contains 7000 chemicals of which 250 are known to be harmful, actually says on the packet "Smoking kills" (they are on about putting the warning on every single ciggie in Canada, not just the packet, every single stick as its so harmful to health), so why not crack or smack?Cannabis contains no chemicals, you can actually get a decent crop just using compost, it's 100% natural, where is the smack or crack tie-in?

I have been cajoled into going camping tomorrow. Not proper camping. A mate as been fettling an old car and wants to give it a bit of a run and I'm the only person he knows daft enough to go with him as it will probably break down. I gave my camping gear away years ago (loaned out to nephews but never returned). So went off to Go Outdoors to buy a cheap tent and sleeping bag. I looked up when in the camping section and then I saw it, a terrible sight. THE CYCLING DEPARTMENT!. Sorry like but I hate cyclists. Not all of them, just most of them. The ones that I come across who try and run me

Sunak is a big tax, big spending, big government chancellor, the complete opposite to what a Tory stands for. Truss was the LibDem president of the Oxford debating society, was an ardent republican who wanted to abolish the monarchy and campaigned to remain in the EU. Again, the complete opposite to what a Tory stands for. Now, it doesn't matter if you love, hate or are indifferent to the Torys, our next Prime Minister will be a lying, backstabbing, hypocrite ! A Tory in name only. And to save you replying, Wilf, yes, I know they are all the same ! ?? ! Cheers.

Well in mate, first few weeks was horrible but well worth it. Don’t even miss it this time feeling lethargic and slow and fatigued what a load of shite it is 20 years I wasted smoking that shite.

5.2 months this time round I’m done with it stopped and started lots of times but this time for good, feel great ??

You’ve got it right about the Netherlands, it use to make me laugh how the young kids just walked past all the sex shops and cafes without braking there stride.. different culture! scratch below the surface and alls not what it seems.. I went over with a lad working and I’m the only one still about! I smashed gear for England before the kids came along.. me eldest is 22 and a nightmare with the weed and stuff! You and a few other lads I know function fine with the smoke but fcuk me it’s ruined loads of family’s round my way… I’m not down for legalise! you should be exempt f

just seen that c**t Carwyn Jones in a Tesco in Bridgend...would of punched the smarmy cnuts face in ,if I didn't have my 8 yr old with me?

I wouldn’t of got it with the lamp, as soon as it seen my pretty face it was off like a shot ?

left a set of terrier couples on a gate once after a night dig....drove 160 miles to get them back?,couple of hundred miles for good dogs or ferrets...nothing like a good road trip mate??

nowt wrong with sunny Scarborough.. its wild, saw an old bloke get naked and jump in the sea while I was fishing off the rocks this morning! playboy life.. phhha.. keep it ?

you will be able to drive up to 7.5 tonne gross on your licence.

That's a fair point. But we agree that the freedom for the majority is worth some casualties. Drink being an example, betting another. We all love cars but they come with heavy casualties. It's achieving the right balance and we are not doing that at the moment imo.

reminds me of this lol...

We had 2, 1 hour sessions on the pier and my daughter managed 10 mackerel she was well happy and wants to go again

At last this thread is back on track

There is no 1 leader among them currently. This country needs someone with some balls to make decisions like Winston or Maggie. All we have now is a group of dick heads more concerned about slandering their opposition than actual policies and improvement. I don't trust a single one of them. Said it before, there is no one in there connected with the working man. Labour is now led by a peadophile protecting "sir" who doesn't know what real life is for 90% of the democratic. .......then again I was in cooplands earlier behind a scruffy smack head who pulled out a wedge big enough to st

I took on a 15 month rescue working type Collie Bitch. I could see great potential in her but she was crapping in the house every night and when I came in the room it was painful to see her trying to get under the settee 3 inches of the ground. I have been around dogs all my life and I was 72 at the time. I just patted her told her, good girl and let her into the back garden. She had been knocked about on a daily basis for this because it happened every morning and I reacted the same every time. Sometimes there was blood in it and it took me a month to work it out. She had a Wheat allergy. All

Your mam sounds like a woman who takes pride in her appearance ?
