Just finished it off couple of coats of super glue on the fork and a little lanyard made from paracord and some bits of roe antler I had 20mm tbg straight, might write John Webb on the handle and put it on eBay for £250 ??

They are pretty prolific, and most mornings any grass will show signs of there nocturnal feeding ? I no people that have for photography but don’t no the law on it ?

I get loads more squirrels when the dogs are with me,it’s amazing how many just lay flat against the tree when you walk by, the Lurcher goes into a point, they also watch the dogs instead of me and present better shots,flush a few out the brambles with the terrier as well, I see so few rabbits around the dogs have tuned right in on them -
My understanding was the boar is always at the back when they move in a group, but I also stand to be corrected ???
-
Been plenty of good sightings in the forest mate, had some good tooth pits off a widboar last year, hope you get some beginners luck ??

Not to sure, we can go out for a walk for exercise or to work if we have an essential job and other essential journeys, shopping, bank or doctors, lots of plod out stopping folk and asking them why they are out and dishing out £30 on the spot fines if you don’t have a good reason, my problem is I,m not allowed to drive to take the dogs out yet I am going to a farm and doing my walking in total isolation but I am allowed to walk them round the local park with Everyman and his dog also doing the same thing, ??

Just been for my Dailey allocated hours walk and managed to bag this off the local railway underpass, also came to an interesting conclusion regarding squirrels, every time a sunny day occurs during winter I can go out and almost guarantee a squirrel or two, yet since this period of sunny weather have been out looking most days and have not even seen one let alone shoot one, my dogs are pretty hot on them as well and will point them out if they are up trees or flush them if they are in scrub so it’s not me missing them they just aren’t there, the other consistent thing since the sun came out

I tend to set them about 3/4ft high facing slightly downwards have had a few badgers actually pull them off when I set them to low, they can also smell you on them for the first week so the longer you can leave them the more natural the animals will become, it’s quite addictive mate but opens up a hole new world ??

Don’t think price comes into catapults unless your trying to buy success which always ends in failure, that one is a hazel fork cut from the hedge less than a quids worth of elastic and a pouch cut from a leather sofa dumped in a laybye, stick a piccy up of what you got and I,ll see if I can do something with it for you, you have a young lad as well mate ? so it’s a good thing for you to do together ??
-
Never get a ticket as long as there’s a hole in me arse, but make do and mend, just took my dogs out for a local walk round the streets and managed a sneaky shot off the local railway underpass ??am going to ask a mate if I can feed one of his horses from next week so I can get out of town everyday for my walk ??
-
Never had much joy with the card readers have a few but they seem very hit or miss, would add I am a technical retard so could well be me ??

You need a laptop with an SD card slot in the side, I only buy cameras with a full size SD as the micro ones are easy to loose and a bit of a pain for a fat fingered short sighted old fool like me, just take the SD out the camera and stick it in the slot and it will talk you through loading up anything you need if it’s not already on the laptop, the wild boar in the forest are pretty mental on the cameras when you find a good run it’s like a long line of humbugs plus the host of other oddity’s you may catch up there

Does no one use this guy have had a few sets of cheap scopes off him still have a set on my mercury and it’s been on it for years still holds true and works fine, sorry link won’t work but here’s a screen shot ?

Don’t know not allowed out so using no fuel, don’t no if you are referring to crude oil or heating oil or what, but I think for some reason Russia is producing a lot of cheap oil that’s driving down global prices last time I loaded up the van forecourt prices dropped about 20p a litre over night, of course it was the night after not the night before ?
-
Same as that mate I,m down to my last 2 packets of hobbnobs ?? discipline is starting to go and everyday I,m starting earlier give it a few more weeks and I could become a right slob need to start setting my daily targets again ??

Chin up mate it’s a lottery and we are all in it, ?but good luck whatever outcome you wish for

He is on a few syndicates mate cost between around£250 to £500 per year seems steep but if it’s your main thing it’s still cheaper than golf

Take no notice of me I’m just bored my son spends days sat at the table tying the latest all singing all dancing rigs that are going to change the world as did I at one stage until I realised that it’s all bollacks and the more components Korda can encourage you to put in a rig the more money they earn so now I,m just a simple line a liner and all about watercraft and I still remain competitive when I do go which ain’t that often unless it’s social rather than competitive

And this from the worlds most powerful country, not really filling me with confidence Seems even my iPad has the virus now ??
