  1. You don't want to admit that online once your over a certain age, they will have you on a register ?
  2. A packet of mint imperials sat in the back of the cinema shooting at the characters on screen was one of our fun things to do as youngsters, your boys sound like proper kids mate, just get them some weaker elastic so no one looses an eye and let them crack on, much better than a PlayStation ??
  3. Little update on project woodburner, have chopped up a large road sign and made a hearth stuck half a dozen boiler flues together and fired the beast up been burning for a few days, rivets seem to be doing ok although I did replace a few in less accessible places but looked at a few cheap commercial models that use rivets for door hinges etc, there is no adjustable air draft, if the door is open it burns a treat if the door is shut it goes straight out so for the princely sum of a fiver I won't have to freeze my nads off in the smoking shed every winter

    That does look just like it plus the foliage around is not dissimilar, looks like me and the dogs had a lucky miss with that one, cheers ?

    Snake

    I,guess like most creatures he will be a thing of habit so when I return I will tie the dogs up before I reach the spot and try to sneak up unnoticed and get a picture, I have a video somewhere on a hi8 tape of one I caught years ago (grass snake) but he,s stood right up spitting like a proper snake have also had some foul smelling shit sprayed on me by a grass snake it was a milky substance that no amount of washing seemed to shift and I stunk for days after, I,m still leaning toward adder as most grass snakes I find are close to or on water were as this thing was in a more heathland envirom

    This is the thing I look for before I grab a snake it's the yellow thing on the back of its head,that's a real grass snake I,ve caught quite a few,

    Snake

    Over the years I,ve encountered quite a few grass snakes and adders but yesterday when I was out I saw quite a big brown snake with diamonds down its back, it was sunbathing on a grassie hump on some waste land, I tried to grab it but it went under the grass and traveled faster than I could clear the grass plus I had my three dogs with me which I was trying to keep seperate as I never wanted them to eat the snake or it to bite them if it was poison, during the brief encounter I could not tell if it was an adder or a grass snake so when I got home I typed both into google images and the same pi

    Why what's she done to you???
  11. I think you,ll find that the phone package you have is only allowed to block calls from the uk, foreign call centres can't be covered by uk law and that's why you still get calls from a bloke called Dave that can't even say your name, I don't think there,s a need to line your cupboard in foil and hide under the stairs mate just check the small print within your package ?
  12. 3 best forks for the begginers are, scout as shown, proshot bloodshot, and the wasp uni fox, simple reason they are all multi grip and multi band friendly meaning you can hold them in most popular grips, left or right handed and use various bands or tubes on them, once you know what style of shooting and what bands you prefer you can get something a bit more specific or make your own let us know what you get

    There was an old fella some years back doing some chainsaw work in his garden the wife was footing the steps for him, but as he fell off he took the head off her on the way down, I do own chainsaws but only cut up fallen trees for the fire,never off the ground, they don't give you the opportunity to learn from your mistakes

    Cut it all as close to the floor as you can and next week just pull all the brown stuff off, I,ve realised I don't bounce as well as I used to so tend to take a few less risks, showed it before but this was a fall from a tree mate, cost me a week in hospital and another week off work, much cheaper to buy some decent steps or rent an ally tower ??

    Sorry thought you,d miss spelt the car brand can't get the link working ???
  16. Looks good, venison? I,ve had enough of stew,s and curry,s for a while lovely to be doing a bit of summer grub over the coal,s ?
  17. I get the paste in a little Indian shop, it comes from Kingston and has a real good kick, agree a 100 percent about the powdered stuff usually use it to flavour sauce rather that marinating, just done a quick pizza as all this cookings making me hungry and the pork will need 3/4 hours in the smoker at least, enjoying the sunshine at last ??
  18. Just boned and jerked half a pork belly will put it in the smoker later on or early tomorrow , stuffed with spring onions and proper jerk paste , the daughters are away on hockey tour and the boys away fishing so a full banquet for when they all return hungry and hungover, the old sauce pan contains applewood chips that are soaking in water for a really slow smoke

    I have a 900 aero turbo locked away for my retirement fund ?
  20. I think Nigel mansel had one years ago also very popular in the states, just another way of relieving the rich of there wealth as they can't be arsed to build a canine relationship almost every dog I,ve ever owned would attack if someone made a sudden move toward me and I,ve never owned or required a guard dog, it's just a strong loyalty, were as these things are imprinted with a secret attack word
  21. Bet he wish,s he,d one the award for head movement, he might have ducked ?
  22. Get danual dubious fighting a bit more and I think we could have a genuine unbeatable unified heavyweight for a few years, there,s to much pissing about with all the politics and different belts and if fury don't get busy soon his comeback will end the same way as Hayes I think, ?
  23. Ggg v Canelo was the last straw for me, I said after that farce I,d never pay again and so far have,nt, been tempted a few times but just get up and watch on YouTube now, if I don't want to see the result I get someone else to upload it for me ?
  24. Glad I never paid for that, think it's shocking that any old rubbish think they deserve ppv these days, I think they should now both retire as bellew is to small to take on any of the real heavyweights and haye has been shite since he became a heavy, have seen more unpredictable fights down the local smelting works and I can get in and have a few beers for a twenty, roll on next weekend for linares ,lomanchenko, I,m away fishing all weekend so will be listening on the radio proper old school
  25. I have two other woodburners in other places and normally only close the doors if they are spitting badly or I,m going out or to bed, but I,ll give this one a go open and closed better to test it to destruction before I fit it in the shed ?
