    life below zero

    Greyman replied to TOMO's topic in General Talk

    Watched it a bit going back but like most of these shows it gets a bit same samie and tends to over dramatise stuff that is just routine in that environment, still a lot more appealing than eastenders or emmerdale simply because there is snow, guns trapping and tracking

    I hate social media, but it does have its uses you should start a blog on face ache along with some of your lovely photo,s and highlight the councils error, nothing gets these people to listen unless it’s causing them embarrassment, send off your plight to a couple of bbc lovey,s like prick packem and your local mps, kick up a stink and embarrass the twats it’s all they understand,

    Think the AA 400 series is like the Morris minor of air guns you can get better,faster and more impressive, but if you just want a gun you can take out the cupboard put some air in and go shooting with no drama the 400,S win hands down, I,ve owned one for years, stuck an odd O ring in for penny,s and it’s never not been spot on even after a year or more in the cupboard ??

    I would go with Walshie on this as my sister married young to a total prick, womanising wife beating bag of shit, roll forward 30 odd years and happily married to a guy that idealises her and provides her with a good standard of living, she is a school prefect type never a day of trouble in her life and happily married for 30 years, her husband does the odd bit of clay shooting and thought it would be a simple form filling exercise to get her licence so they could go together but oh no, she was prescribed anti depressants during that early period of life and it came back to bite her on the ars

    97 percent of news regarding Donald trump has been negative or derogatory, which just enforces the opinions of the sheeple for the faceless puppet masters that control them, open your eyes, research your news from those you agree with to those you don’t and form your own opinions, people just repeating what they have been told to say is just propaganda not news ?

    It was swimming in and around a big overhanging willow were I was fishing, was there for 3 weeks almost tame, on the 3rd week a camo clad Twitcher with a lense that would shoot the moon came jumping out the bush,s took a photo and told me about the bird, I never saw it again after that? the lake must be on a migration route as it,s had a few pretty rare visitors over the years, saw a pied fly catcher there caught in a mist net and though I never saw it was an osprey on there for a week or so some years back ?

    Eggs or a fungus I,d guess ?

    All my local shoots are on private land, they give the beaters a sausage sarny and a brew at the start and a belly full of scrumps at the end,half the local pis heads are there every other Saturday ?

    Several years back when I was fishing I saw a little grebe simular to that and never even took a picture I was told after it was a red something, neck/face grebe and was one of 9 known in England at the time, ?

    Exactly that mate except it’s even easier now than in the 80,S as every farm , forest and country estate has public footpaths running through them which were never maintained or highlighted with signs and shiny new gates, back in the day, I walk many miles a week with my terrier and lurcher in tow, and very rarely get accosted like I used to, most farmers just say morning now or give a little wave as I walk through, google earth is a fantastic tool for finding your way on and off property your not meant to be on via footpath,s, I will be gaining entry to a large quarry in the morning to set so

    Nothing is ever new it just gets re invented, and in years to come someone will rediscover country sports and it will once again be the next great new thing, that everyone is encouraged to get involved with, probably best to let the world go through it’s vegan phase before the big revival though, hopefully things may have changed enough that we are allowed to hunt vegans in its next coming ???

    I thought that was how you shot pheasants 9mm steelballs in a catty out the car window if that counts, ???

    I don’t know all the details mate I was sent a copy of it within an hour of it being taken, several month,s later I was told it was being offered to the papers for sale, I can only assume they had second thoughts and honoured the woman’s choice to stay anonymous or the papers never offered them enough money to justify a family rift, I have been told by several people that the footage is a cut out being dragged on string through the hedge??? but I have seen it frame by frame and the tip of the tail is flicking constantly, before it slides away through the hedge the quality of the original is go

    One more little point I will make is that if you don’t find a kill within 12 - 24hrs its been cleaned up by badgers, Fox,s and even corvids so even finding one fresh kill is pretty much a needle in a haystack ?

    In very simple terms as I,m a very simple person and school was,nt my best years, the three points on the carnassial teeth each have a name, the protocone to parastyle is the big difference between canid and feline as shown in the middle line of the chart the first one says sample 6.58 the sample is from a uk carcass, the others are from captive known animals the biggest canine will never be bigger than 4.0 were as cats are always bigger normally 5.0 plus so when me or others like me find bones with a small triangle of holes they go off to the lab were they get analyside, we have had over ten

    The RAU is were all the lab work is done, and the video was filmed on an iPhone, 9 in the evening in June at a distance of about 20/30 feet, it,s by no means conclusive but another good piece to the puzzle, I admire the woman who filmed it for her bravery and quick thinking, she saw the cat walking along a hedge line whilst camping with her husband, both are in the military and after the initial shock she grabbed her phone and actually ran up to it catching the rear end and tail as it disappeared through a hedge

    Funnily enough a lad I don’t know, but he,s friends with others I do know attended our last meeting at the university, he said to my mate he was a total sceptic and most of the pictures were not good enough to convince him, (I agree) but listening to the boffins he found that the evidence was overwhelming, I do know how hard it is to get your head round the fact we have a group of displaced apex predators living secretly amongst us, but I don’t think the university would be putting time and money into something for so long if we were not making progress, the golf course ones were sent to me fr

    I believe it is every Englishman’s right to own a shotgun and the authority,s have to provide a valid reason to refuse, I may be wrong never owned more than an air rifle myself but I thought that was the law, just more pandering to the looney left is all it is,

    new twist in the yellow vest protest, also hear they have taken down 60 percent of frances speed cameras, London is slowly following suit, very interesting times ahead

    If you have a line of cat tracks also look for direct registry were the rear foot lands on the same spot as the front foot, quite useful , as is a leading toe, clench your fist and look at you knuckles, one sticks out further, canids tend to be symmetric, nice that an old fool like myself can educate a bright young man like yourself cheers ?

    A few of the better ones I have but there are a few good ones I,ve seen in the snow around, mostly it’s odd single pug marks in mud patch, or dried puddles like the one with my phone which is 41/4” long
  23. Greyman
    Getting more common mate I think it,s the same thing as in the cats and I guess two black squirrels will have all black young so eventually it will become normal melanism is the opposite of albinism I think an extra gene instead of a missing gene, probably something born could explain better than me but here are a few more ?

    Shit house fighting, not brave not hard, mob handed and tooled up to do one fat out of shape traveller, and the dumb f**k shouts out his mates name half way through slashing him, it’s all about image, they will think they are the dags danglies for a month until some other little shithouse upstages them, with an even more outrageous act of stupidity,
