  1. Snow from last week is melted,ice is thawing,thousands of geese flying in and out of the lake behind home,spring has sprung….Snow returns tomorrow.
  2. Probably one of the ultimate urbex destinations,not many historical stone tape memories I guess.
  3. I watch ICE raid news most days,UK needs an ICE style agency rather than an ineffectual Border Farce (Freudian slip).Border Farce really aren't fit for purpose,a dripping tap fills the bucket and those illegals in boats are very quickly filling what is in reality a tiny packed country.
  4. Dauphinois potatoes,well played sir,well played.

    Pet hates.

    Ontario came up with something a bit novel a couple of weeks back,removing speed cameras in the province as the premier labelled them a Government cash-grabbing scheme,I saw a crew removing one a few days ago.

    Reform

    Oh dear....Ten and a half years. Reform UK's former Wales leader Nathan Gill jailed for accepting pro-Russian bribes NEWS.SKY.COM Gill, 52, pleaded guilty to eight counts of bribery between 6 December 2018 and 18 July 2019...
  7. How’s life nowadays trapper?
  8. Did a quick search to find that report,found a far worse one.
  9. 1000 REPORTED rapes,far greater number go unreported TIA.I remember reading a report on three blokes who raped a baby, as raping a virgin “Cures aids” and all three were HIV.
  10. If you do decide to go to the Philippines odds are you’re going to Oslob on Cebu?Theres a tiny island right at the north of Cebu called malapascua which has a dive spot renown for big thresher sharks.My eldest son did a free dive course on Cebu years ago.Any advice you need on that area just ask,I visited most of the larger islands in the visayas. There used to be a program on Thai TV showed water buffalo fights and cockfights.
  11. More cost effective to have garments made in China mate,the shop price would rocket if the clothing was produced in the UK.Manufactured in China doesn’t make it inferior,the pattern is the same.
  12. If you do go,my eldest son took these when he was there. Also go to a cock-pit,every Sunday is sabong day,every city,town and village has rooster fights on Sunday.
  13. If you do go to the Philippines its no Thailand,the whale sharks at Oslob is a tourist circus,not like when I was there,the industry is now built around the whale sharks,its tourist central.
  14. There’s video on YouTube of a guy getting over a hundred salmon in a pool with a cast net,but here your days limit is 5 fish,one throw of a net would get you that many plus.It’s more enjoyable hooking one and stopping it running the rapids into the next pool.
  15. Bangers will be on the snow crab and Wagyu before you know it.
  16. You have never had lobster and steak????
  17. Easiest way is a spawn sac neil. https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/atlas-mike-s-spawn-net-squares-peach-3-x-3-in-0778617p.html
  18. Got my bow back from the shop,Cam timing is perfect,pins are on for 10,20,30 yards (I won’t use the last pin as 40 is pushing it)just waxing the string fibres and watching telly.
  19. It’s a decent store,LOTS of muntie round there.
  20. Hey,come on Leo,your better than that.If you get the chance pop in (with cash),lol. I went in a really nice marina boating store in Spain once,mega-posh,with a guy from Sunderland,I didn’t even see him doing it,he nicked a musto boating jacket,some people.
  21. If your ever down south pop into the bushcraft shop,they have loads of stuff,try before you buy.
