Never heard that mate,the longbow of old was more for distance,had a massive draw-weight,and the archers relied on a rain of arrows to cause havoc rather than rely on accurately loosing a single shaft,theres a revival of interest on whats known nowadays as "Primitive-archery" I have had a try of a long-bow and couldnt shoot it for toffee whereas a compound is a whole new ball game,like comparing an old smoothbore muzzle-loader with a modern day tack-driver I guess it's not beyond the bounds of possibility. The buggers had a longbow in their hands as soon as they were old/big enough.

There is, however the prospect of Import duty and VAT. Unless the item is a gift or worth less than £50.....I think.

Allegedly medieval longbowmen could pick out the eyeholes of a basinet.....

Him and Blaster Bates would have made a great comedy duo.....

Correct mate. Bloody keyboards.....

What? A Reliant Robin????

How convienient And totally unprovable. Noddy should be renamed Knob-by. No need to drag it out this long. Seems like the only defence that can be mustered is 'he's a big lad'. Bloody pathetic.

in the old days? its 2008 and we are now civilised enough to have things called a 'v e t' thats VET we dont have clubs and have to skin animals to eat i have a club and skin and eat animals i even leave the odd jill in season with no ill effects,a match made in heaven eh jojo lol I'm IN a Club. My mother used to skin rabbits. I used to eat them. Does that count?
-
That, my dear, is patently obvious
-
Caz, my precious, I've already said here that my jills are spayed. The problem is, Caz, that you see things only in 'black and white' I.e. any jill left in season WILL die of aplastic anaemia. This is patently bollocks and you've read first-hand experience here. It's the same with culling, ANYONE who culls FOR ANY REASON is evil and should be horsewhipped. Well if you have a kit that is patently not going to survive, then culling at 1 or 2 days is fine by me. Your main argument in these two cases seems to have been 'I'M right YOU'RE wrong'. 'Doing research' isn't about googling and
-
I also know 'fook all' about what percentage of jills left in heat succumb to aplastic anaemia. Which is one thing we have in common, my sweet.
-
Anyone with an ounce of common sense would want to know what the risks were, before embarking on surgery or injections of chemicals. YOU are the one making the claims. It's not my place to back up YOUR (so far unevidenced) assertions. And I've never called you a pot-hunter, I called you a ferret collector. And I still do.

Poor bugger.... its your fault remember that gallon of scrumpy you brought round ours Hahahahaha Roger Wilkins' finest......
-
What proortion of jills left in season go on to develop aplastic anaemia, my little rosebud
-
Poor bugger....

I don't have a drinking problem I drink I get drunk I fall over. No problem.

ffs, why does everyone suggest killing everything? Becauase this is a hunting site, and if you don't kill stuff you're a puff. Or a lesbian Or a lesbian puff with homosexual tendencies...... I'll get me coat
-
Does that mean 40% mortality in all the sample, or of those that went on to develop anaemia?
-
Just answer the question.
-
There's no actual data there. What proportion of jill left in season go on to develop aplastic anaemia? Because unless you have that information you can't assess the risk.
-
The one is correct, seasons in jills are daylight length dependent (or dark time dependent, I can't remember which), so they don't stay in season permanently. However the danger of aplastic anaemia ia s real one. it's how much of a chance of it that's the debate, not whether it happens or not.
