FairPlay lads we got a few years in the big house with that little lot, but as I said at the start hard to imaging not having a knife in the pocket, I can remember buying my first penknife as a toddler at the corner hardware shop for two shillings 10p in new moneys after calling in nearly everyday on my way home from school to look and lust I finally went in with my shinny 10p and came out a knife wielding man, that would be around 45 years ago and I can’t think of a time I never had one in my pocket since, unless incarcerated ?????

I have had swifts nesting in my roof for over 30 years and consider it a great privalidge that they fly thousands of miles from Africa to my house and I,ve probably been home to generations of swifts, well about 4 years back the magpies learned to tap on the tiles and when the young swifts popped there heads out for food they were grabbed and eaten despite me sitting in my garage and shooting them as often as I could the following year they learned that if they sat and waited they could catch the adults trying to go in and out, again I shot and killed a few but sadly last year for the first ti

Ask him when he,s going to release the film he made in a fish tank in a the koi shop, I could tell loads but we have a mutual friend and it wouldn’t be fair, he,s a shite angler that attempts to turn every situation into life or death, did you ever see him in New Zealand dressed in a suit of armour covered in fish guts trying to portray those giant eels as rabid man eaters, I take my hat off to anyone that can make a fortune from total bullshit but that’s basically him ??

Looking good mate, this is worth a watch

I can’t lay claim to the pie, as the origin of it is one of my favourite boozers depending on what part of the world I,m in, but for anyone in Gloucestershire it’s worth the pilgrimage, the landlady does them individually one pie full meal I was just being lazy, and yes there is loads of cheese in it, cheese like bacon enhance the taste of pretty much everything ??

I read somewhere this week that the government are looking into how he has managed to change the licensing law without any discussion or debate ??? P.s also signed a while back ?

I have an orange mountain bike bought from a fat bloke for £150 after he paid £700 for it before realising that simply owning a nice bike does nothing to help you loose wait, there are thousands of nice bikes in fat blokes sheds around the country just waiting for a new owner, beware of the same house on your local council estate selling an expensive mountain bike every week in the free ads or flea bay it’s normally photographed in the same spot so easy to tell but they are probably stolen and the last thing you need is a 16 stone rugby player trying to wrestle your new pride and joy off you

Treat yourself, buy a good knife and it should last you a lifetime that’s why I keep mine on a length of paracord you can’t drop it, can’t be disarmed and can’t throw it, mine actually cost more years ago than I could buy it new today,for anyone wanting a really decent pocket knife they are pretty good cost around £40 ??

That’s Barbie sorted but what colour is ken,s ??

Not legal in the over all scheme of things but every pair of trousers I put on this goes on a belt loop, I actually wander how a man can get through life without a knife in his pocket , it comes out most days just in my every day life, from gutting or dressing out the odd critter to opening a bag of plaster or cutting bands on pallets, I was approached last year by a young man in a track suit with a rather tiny hammer who thought his bmw had more rights to go down a narrow street than my van, it was also very useful in convincing him that he had made a mistake and would be far better off rever

Well you could have put us out of our misery 3 days ago, I got to drive all the way to St Albans now to take all my trail cameras down you fanny ps check out my boys latest 40 in view from my swim, Thursday morning cracker ?

There are definitely triggers for certain dogs from the owners, my misses is a nervy type and you can see the dogs are always on guard around her but there is still no reason when you meet a total stranger and without a word being spoken your normally quiet loyal companion is backing away with its lip curled back, as the old saying goes, the more I get to no people the more I like my dogs

Just gone through a couple of SD cards which I swapped over this morning had my first two badger cubs of the year ??

Good news mate glad to here your all good

Little bump, waiting for jevin to pop up and put my mind at rest

I do have a few of those ones as well mate as you say a good camera, but yes the apeman is more in the browning, stealthcam catagory of camera at the Chinese end of the price range, and the 3minute video could be more useful for you over a baited spot, my problem round here is avoiding badgers as there are so many, a crossing point on a stream is always a good funnel point, I had a cam on a plank over a ditch a couple of years ago, it was like a black and white convoy from dark to dusk, anyway good luck ??
-
If your after a trail cam, the apeman is a good one at the moment mate retailing at over £100 a year ago now £46 on Amazon , they have a much larger video file than any others I have and will take 3mins of video as opposed to the 20/30 seconds you get on most other cameras, though I tend to set them slower as I,m after passing trade but if you can get the badgers feeding a 3min film would be nice

It’s an old angle grinder blade mate, if you no anyone working on building sites they just bin them when there blunt

Another little thing I noticed last year during the really hot weather they seemed reluctant to go below ground in some places don’t no if it’s down to infestations of parasites or just to hot but the deer and badger pic was middle of day in all the heat and I also bumped into one out at 10 am in the middle of a field asleep under some dead grass, Johnny kingdom used to have a badger assault course on his land and they were encouraged to use it with trails of peanuts though again he is in the south were we seem to have a lot more than were zandy is, can’t wait to see your pics mate have no dou

I walk alone, and do what I do, i,m polite to people I meet but won’t hesitate to f**k them off if they are rude, I wave and chat to every farm worker and horse rider I meet, they all just accept me and think I must be one of them as everyone seems to no me but in truth they all no sweet fa about me I,m just the harmless old boy that wanders round and does not hurt anyone, I learned many years ago to row my own boat and stay out the spotlight, it’s the non stop search for other people’s approval and likes on social media that draws all the unwanted attention, in reality the lad that got jail t

I,ve checked setts daily years back in all weathers and during periods of real cold they can stay below ground for a few weeks without coming out, Zandi is also a lot further north than me and I think they are a bit thinner on the ground, people round me just put peanuts in the garden and film them through the patio doors ??

I hope so mate, I,m hoping he will pop up soon and give us the ? maybe his hands are to gummed up with ground bait to type or he has no signal since he relocated to a deep dark Devon valley so he could pre bait more often, it is just his last few posts that got my cogs working, hope he,s on his hols with a knotted hanky on his head and a Guinness
