So, Tell Us, What Are Ye All At In The Veg Garden?
Arry replied to JohnGalway's topic in Living Off The Land & Game Cooking
Well got a few spaces, lettuces have finish not going to put in more and Sugar Snaps Finnish a while ago. I was thinking of something to put in and got the idea off the farmers, their very short of winter fodder down here. Some have used all the winter fodder getting through the summer due to the dry weather. Any way some have put in a kale called "Hungry Gap" (remember filling a purse net when I was out ferreting as a lad)after ripping up the stubble, it grows quick and its cut and come again. So went out to the farm suppliers asked if they had any, how much do you want was the reply?all I wa -
Could it be the lungs and a bit of the wind pipe (looks like wind pipe top right)of one of the birds, killed and this bit buried by a fox then some thing dug it up. Decade a bit then exposed hence smell. Cheers Arry

Sounds like Swimmer disease in the kits which I think can be helped with added calcium in the diet. Cheers Arry

GL as they mature they usually sort of fan out like this. When young they sort of look like yellow phosphorus growth running out off a tree (Usually Oak or wild Cherry) in slow motion, If you get what I mean. Hope this is some help. Cheers Arry

Think its is "Chicken of the Woods". What colour when cut mate? I would go for the young one in yesterdays post. Cheers Arry

First one is "Chicken of the Woods" and a nice young one, the other looks like the under side of "Beef Steak Mushroom". Is the second one red on top and cut red like meat? soak in milk for 2 or 3 hours. If they are "Beef Steak Mushrooms" go for the small young ones. Cheers Arry

That was a evil thing snapping there fangs of. The other evil thing were these. Metal muzzles, I,ve been told they used to make them out of string as well. Was given it keep it a an antique. As for food I don't feed them rabbit, but they do get meat. I feed 10 or 12 grams of meat in the morning when i put them in a run on the lawn and the same again in the evening before they go back in their hutch. In the hutch I have a bowl of Alpha or Wellbeloved to eat what they want. I don't have to worry about meat stored in the nest box. When I was a young'en we fed bread and milk as oth

Used to fish the River Dart in brackish water on the big tides in September, we would get some crackers. I was told or read and think its true that the big ones are come down river to the sea then, then travel right across the Atlantic to the Sargasso Sea to spawn. Top bait was peeler crab, a lot of guys would not waste peelers on eels but back then I had 500 of my own peeler pots and were never short. Cheers Arry

Pity your not closer GL, I know you could work some of your cooking magic with that stuff, really is the prime gear. Cheers Arry

Over the moon today, some prime stuff. "Ceps" and "Hen of the Woods" well chuffed. Cep growing out of the river bank. This is "Hen of the Woods" growing out of the roots of a fallen Oak tree, is a good one keep your eye peeled for one. Usually growing at the base of an Oak or near the base of an Oak. Laid on the grass at home so you can see it better. Cheers Arry

Out today some where different for me but got some fairly good stuff. "Oyster Mushrooms"( they were growing on a beech tree) , "Hedgehog Mushrooms', "Ceps" "Bay Boletes". "Ceps" the one that are white underneath and a bulbous stalk. "Bay Boletes" with the yellow/olive underneath. Both do not have gills but have what looks like sponge. "Hedgehog Mushrooms" Do not have gills instead they have spikes that can be knocked of. "Oyster Mushrooms" I would say shaped like a clam shell, usually growing on a live or dead Beech Tree Cheers Arry

Chris those Red Indian flints are fantastic, worth putting Red Indian Flints into Google and go to images, some are truly beautiful. Cheers Arry

Always wanted to see some of them neolithic chamber on some of the Isles. Saw a documentary on one that corbeled in with amazing stone work. I've found the corner of a polished axe head gave it to a amateur archaeologist, ofter wondered if it was broken by the plough or a Stone Age man cutting a piece of wood 4000 years ago. Cheers Arry

Used to find them in nearly all tilled fields round here, lucky the nearest natural flint is about 6 or 7 mile away. If you find any flint around here its usually has signs its been worked if you magnify it. Very addictive if you start though, used to take the dog for a walk and walk up and down harrowed fields. Seen some a chap on the box napping flint surprising how quick they knocked out a hand axe. Cheers Arry

Any you guys done field walking for Stone Age flints? I found my first ones while sat in a hide pigeon shooting, while sat waiting I spotted two flints at my feet. Pick them up and as I held them thought somebody was hunting on this spot maybe 3000 years ago. Any way I started looking for them after the fields where ploughed and harrowed and after a good shower of rain. Hope they may be of some interest. This is a Oblique Arrow head late neolithic about 4000 years old or so I was told. Very small Leaf Shaped Arrow Head. Two small barbs 20mm long, stuck in the s
