  1. I just buy a rod licence every year and fish from the boat wherever I am
  2. Beef stew for me this evenin been in the slow cooker all day
  3. Had,the day off yesterday as my water pump packed in on the boat all sorted now so backin this morning and another little pei e of spring has arrived on the lawn nothing there on Friday
  4. I don’t think I said that did I, but I,m not trying to make a living out of it I don’t need to edit videos to make me look better than I am and I,m not that desperate for meat I was making Catty,s in the 1970s when a foot of black square tube was 2 shillings and an old leather boot tongue was 2 p so it’s just nice to go backwards instead of following the heard sometimes, that’s all no biggie I also use more than 6” of elastic hope thats ok lol
  5. Fruit juice on a coved test should see you right mate
  6. Fish and chips for me as well but sweet potato chips and salad
  7. A couple of grand for mine mate think it’s around a grand for a narrow boat, some places you just book the dry dock and do it yourself which works out a lot cheaper and you know it’s been done properly
  8. Every 3/5 years with tar 7/8 years with two pack mate
  9. Well finally warm enough to let the old fire go out for a few hours during the day so thought I would give it a strip down and clean while the misses is in town with the daughter, then made a moss stick for my cheese plant with a hazel stick and some dried sphagnum moss
  10. This mornings wander, few moles starting to show now the ground is drying out, sparrow hawks had breakfast an old piece of canal we are told will be open by next year lol some daffs and looks like the local hunt have been across the fields and the best swim on the river lol
  11. Pebbles mate it’s nice to challenge yourself a bit sometimes, hitting everything with a ball bearing is great but it’s a bit like pcp verses springer, boringly easy
  12. It’s just an ongoing speeding offence mate nothing serious, I quite enjoy a play with the magistrates in reality, so far they have lied verbally and by email and produced false evidence in court but I still think I,ll get the win have a few aces to play yet lol
  13. If you can be arsed to look back I have shown how I do my pouch’s I just use a short piece of tube and a pair of long nose pliers takes me minutes no jigs no tying and lasts for ages
  14. Every time we go shopping there is more in the trolley for the grandkids than us and when I go to my treat cupboard for a bar of chocolate or biccy that was always mine I,m told don’t touch that it’s for the kids not you lol
  15. I grew up on quite a notorious council estate left school with nothing, went on to do several terms in Borstal and jail, but I can’t stand my parents and wanted everything different for my own kids, my eldest is a Batchelor of science, head of science and vice principle by the age of 30 younger daughter was manager of 5 dental practices until she had kids and my son is doing well in the construction industry, but more important none of them have had to see or do the shit I went through in life, it’s up to everyone of us to break the mould and strive for more, but it’s usually just easier to be
  16. Just been for a wander round the local village and popped into the new shrilankan deli bought a few different dishes to try all very nice they sell it in small 100g bowls so yo just make up your own meals as you go £15 fed me and the misses
  17. Got me a new iPad so back in the game, nice little local walk, frome is back within its banks church yard full of squirrels and a few bunny’s to rattle along the hedge row also bumped into a lad I know in the 2.1 stroker scooby
  18. You may be able to tell from my writings that I,m not a great reader of books mate so no I haven’t sorry,

    Snow day

    Feck me minus 2 would be a light frost pretty normal for late January I would have thought, have seen wood pigeons mating,snowdrops and daffs up everywhere the rooks are repairing the nests and the robin is flitting in and out of my shipping container looking for a nest site, more of an early spring than a snow bomb, always use the word bomb for added fear value, we will be getting some big sun bombs in a month or two hopefully
  20. Iran needs to show its hand first mate we have funded conflict for years without being involved and regarding fanning the flames we have been doing it since we removed saddam, gaddafi etc funding Ukraine and bombing the hoodies has all led to world wide unrest, I look up to you as a very well lived wiseman but if you don’t think the world is being led toward major conflict you do surprise me
  21. No surprise there we have been fanning the flames for a few years now, recon get Iran dragged into the Israel crisis and a few more billion to the Ukraine so they can strike Russia and we,ll be away, no better way to get the disenchanted saps grovelling back to the governments folds than a good war
  22. Friday night can’t be arsed to cook but a bit of ham,onion and cheese toasted On a nice crusty roll toasted makes a quick tasty belly full
  23. Talking of class in the armed forces and as an ex borstal boy I always found this quite an interesting subject, worth a bit of research and reading
  24. That goes without saying but the point I am trying to make is the thing is dangerous every time the battery is in it there is no two button trigger,trigger guard or chain brake like on any other power tool and the trigger protrudes so can engage the chain whenever you place it down so my advice remains the same, spend a few quid more and avoid the bottom end of the market if you value your limbs and digits
