  1. There’s currently 1652 NHS vacancies for doctors in the NHS,my son put the hard work in,I paid every single penny of his tuition,no student loans whatsoever,have the states nicked him?
  2. That’s fine,you dont understand the brain-drain isn’t theft,it’s entirely voluntary.
  3. No one steals NHS staff from abroad mate,that's a fact,my lady came to the UK just for a year to work,they are recruited,stealing the staff is a bit of an odd way to describe it,my Son and Daughter-in-law are in healthcare and moved to the states,my lady has nieces who did the same,recruited is the word,better money and quality of life.

    Nigel is off to the promised land.
  6. I have never seen a black muskrat,but the normal brown ones are in most waterways and ditches local.The trap is as complicated as they come,read about the light
  7. The jaws release as the trap rises so the muskrat is safely caged,like something from a HG Wells muskrat movie.I wonder how much live muskrat fetched to restock a marsh?
  8. Iranians are in the top 4 nationalities crossing the English Channel illegally in small boats,they aren’t all coming for fish and chips and the fantastic British weather,some will arrive with malice aforethought (it’s happened in the past) you could very well be right sir.
  9. Canadian teenager on holiday in Australia back in January was attacked by a dingo pack while walking on the beach.They attacked her so she ran into the sea to escape the pack and drown,when her body was found the pack were around her,six were shot and the rest ran off.
  10. Early 1900's,the muskrat is actually caught in two traps,a foothold and the cage,the cage rises out of the water so you can see you have a catch,crazy eh?

  11. The world is laughing at the UK's weak leader,Trump reposted this.......
  12. Done a little research on these traps,they were designed for catching muskrat alive to restock marshes when fur prices were high.Nowadays the trap in good condition will fetch $1200

  14. There’s a bait hook on it,reminds me of a pike trap I saw once.
  15. Back in the day teenagers made enough cash to buy a truck trapping muskrats,imagine carrying 50 of those
  16. Manicures and pedicures are ok though…..Right?🫣
  17. I have been in the walled city,it was demolished within a year of me arriving,Hong Kong then was awesome,an incredible place for a young bloke,glad I had those times.
  18. Who manufactured them?With a name like Lambsaver what predator were they used against?
  19. What’s the size and build cost?
