    Happy new year all.
  7. Defrosted until the stretch I just reached but gin clear and sunny, hopefully get a take on the walk back...

    Pet hates.

    Tech, specifically the new phone I've had in a drawer for 18months , I decided to bite the bullet swap provider and have to reset banks business stuff and all the other crap,
  12. Ended with three jacks the above being the biggest. Saw a bit more of the levels , might have a crack at the canal tomorrow...
  13. Although I'm no commy I quite like the European version where you join the local hunt/shoot and for a small fee it's attainable for everyone, here it's more a case of the haves and have nots , it's a strange game , I'm not a fan of servs that defend the hierarchy, I got disillusioned at a young age , also I can't think what loyalty exists in modern hunting or fishing tbh . I believe in every man to his sport and I'd also say making things illegal invites the wrong sorts . A very broad argument really

But there is a common enemy in the establishment, but how many farmers will vote conservative even though they spent three terms running the country into the ground, maintaining illegal immigration and pushing for net zero , not doing much for Britain full stop just like labour now. Hopefully we get reform UK and they do what's been promised ....
  15. I made a grave error of giving the dogs all the goose leftovers from Christmas day, had my folks coming over on boxing day and we were greeted early morning by shit and vomit all over carpet and sofas...bad times and blankets
  16. I've enjoyed a bit of the ginger fisherman and various old school stuff on YouTube like John Wilson and whatnot, just been watching Matt Hayes and Mick doing ultimate rod race , not my fav but brought back some memories of watching with the old man...
  17. Yep that's heart attack temps, you can acclimatise but it's a thin line between pain and comfort , comfort being hyperthermic. Rule of thumb is if it feels comfortable time to get out , tbh my varicose veins hurt bad in cold water. I protect my digits with neoprene and if it was just a plunge then there's probably less enjoyment other than escaping the frozen murderous water lol. Well done old chap ....
  18. Too late now we're all sick of em lol. Looks spot on as per...
