  1. Nice box of veg mate, good show of spuds there, can't grow potatoes always get blight. Even struggled with the Tomatoes this year shall try one called "Crimson Crush" next year as its supposed to be 100% blight resistant. Cheers Arry
  2. Terry this might be worth a try, last year had bad problems with cabbage whites then the woodies came in and finished the job. I bought 25 meters roll of water pipe made some hoops bamboo canes with some diagonals pushed into the ground butterfly netting stapled to some battens pegged or weighted at the ends, its worked treat so far. did another one bought the wrong netting (bird netting i think) and the cabbage whites went right through. Cheers Arry
  3. Heard this on in the back ground tonight on master chef, right up my street. Cheers Arry
  4. What a lovely Mom and Dad you had mate, quite moving that. My old man would have been straight down the boozer. Cheers Arry
  5. Chip Butty but I do love a crab sandwich, Smoked bacon fried egg brown hp and I've tried cold cottage pie sandwich that very good but for me they all have to be door steps of fresh Warm if possible white bread with thick lashings of salted butter.
  6. Just nice to get out there sometimes. Think its going to be a funny old year numbers wise this year had that RHD on some perms mixy on a different perm last year, thankfully picked up there. Nice looking dogs mate have a good season. Cheers Arry
  7. Thought I'd pass this on, Mackerel will die if handled then returned to the water. Best way is to crush the barbs or barb less hooks and shake them off straight back into the sea. Not trying to tell granny how to suck eggs but some folk don't know. http://www.sacn.org.uk/Articles/Releasing_Mackerel.html Cheers Arry
  8. Out foraging looked up and seen this. Cheers Arry
  9. £5 a week as a apprentice electrician and I was the highest paid in my class at tec. When I was still at school I work on a market garden evenings and week ends for a tight old sod I think it was 1s 10 1/2d = less than 10p an hour. As a bonus I might get a lettuce or a bunch of flowers for my mother. Cheers Arry

  12. Some Bry and me got yesterday. Hedgehog mushrooms and Chanterelles Hedgehogs mushrooms we find this colour around here bit up near Dartmoor under Fir trees they are pure white. Notice the spikes on the under side. Hen Of The Woods look out for these they are excellent and my favourite mushroom. Cheers Arry
  13. Christ mate I just use a knife Lol, just joking. Only to welcome mate bring the pup if you like he would enjoy the walk. Cheers Arry
  14. Good solid job that mate. Cheers Arry
  15. Malt Paste, mate. I have found feeding small strips of meat by hand works very well. Cheers Arry
  16. Darren If you want mate you can come down again but this time for some foraging. If not get a book (river side cottage one is not bad,and Field Guide to edible Mushrooms by Peter Jordan is a really good book). Start with easy ones like giant puff ball nothing you can muddle that up with because of its size then move on to like Hedge Hog mushrooms which is good, it has spikes instead of gills. Slowly slowly and if your not sure don't eat it, Its a good year to start though as there is a lot around. Cheers Arry
  17. I've been so lucky with these two little kits. when I picked them up i said to the bloke christ mate you must have handled these a lot, he said "no i haven't had the time". Could not believe it there full of beans yet not so much as a nip. they seem to seek human contact come running up to you even the wife will handle them. Never had kits so easy. Cheers Arry
  18. Loads of Mackerel in Start bay at the moment. Had a few for a feed yesterday from Beesands but the beach was minging the mackerel driven sprat white bait up the shore. there were two line of them about half a meter wide the hole length of the beach cooking in the sun. Had a cracking Fisherman breakfast from the cafe down there. Cheers Arry
  19. 6.15 this morning the kits in the own box were going loopy, making a right din playing volley ball with there food bowl. Thought i'd better get out and sort them out as want to stay friendly with next doors. Anyway opened the lid they were springing about like some free running teenagers, one bounced from the floor (knee height)to the top of the front (waist height) then hit me in the square in the chest clinging on spread eagle like a sky diver. Fed them put them in the run made a cup of tea and just sat and watched. Cheers Arry
  20. Welcome mate, enjoy. Cheers Arry
  21. I think Devon would be to far for you but you would have been welcome. Cheers Arry
