    Corbyn

    I agree I just find it funny the left turning on the left.Yep,agreed,but didnt you think it was all a bit soft "Peter.......peter.......peter.........peter........" instead of just telling him to pipe the f**k down.

    Corbyn

    I saw peter tatchell shouting him down earlier,in fairness to corbyn he behaved impeccably,didnt shout shut the f**k up you puff or nothing,just kept repeating his name in a calm manner and actually seemed a bit perturbed by the situation.
  5. A lifesaving operation clipped his flightfeathers but 'every cloud' an all that... I always liked to think he had gone on to bigger and better things after the book,i wasnt around when he dissapeared,i went wander for a year or so,when i came back he had vanished like kaiser sorze,hope he is keeping well?I have wandered a few times,I read a book on marco polo as a kid and thought it sounded well cool,i did most of the silk route once except iran or persia as it used to be called,i applied for the visa for iran in islamabad,i was near there anyway,got a letter of introduction from the british
  6. Simo left the site shortly starting this thread,I wonder how far his wanderlust carried him?
  7. I,m looking at the deus lite with the 11 inch coil,,,how do you rate it trappa ,what settings do you use,and why did you want to wrap it round a tree lol Mate, i swear, if i was a multi millionaire i would still use the same detector, i dont think it can be beat tbh. Its so light you can swing it all day, its as complicated or as easy as you want it to be. If you google "Garys cold settings" and use that as a benchmark, its a good all-rounder, i still use that and my own pattern ive tweaked over the lat couple of years.As for wrapping it round a tree, i had gone from a minelab etrac to the
  8. They actually look ok mate,what do you use the footsnares for?Any pics of them in action?
  9. I saw a tv show where jeremy wade was with some black african guys,they were fishing for cats in africa somewhere using soap,odd bait for fish eh?
  10. I got it in thailand mate,the bait is what they call lam,its like a paste and i put coconut attractor in,i am going to try for barramundi over there as there are some places with biggies.
  11. Kerry i am looking at yourmpics and i can almost imagine the fight to stop that powering down into the rocks,looks the bollocks,your a lucky guy to live in such a place,you ever fish for barramundi?
  12. Siamese catfish,f***ing powerhouses,they strip line from a reel like its going out of fashion,grow to a huge size,and when ones running even with heavy tackle all you can do is hang on and wait for it to lose steam,fishing for them soon,looking forward to it.
  13. Round of applause for that man,he deserves his own TV show,word for word the truth,muslim migrants who are married to children lol
  14. This and that mate,the usual,i saw a taxidermy hunt scene a few weeks ago,two wolves running after a caribou,looked good.
  15. Hey mate,good to see your still alive and kicking,hope alls well?Whats the story behind the mask?
  16. Film 4 at the moment,black and white but i have seen this movie countless times,Lonely are the brave.

    Triel

    Talking of glass eyes,i have a DVD on filming hunts,the guy advises cleaning your whitetail up before photographing,and he even carries a set of glass eyes to,pop into the deer to make it a bit more presentable for photographs.
  20. Well said,acknowledging it and trying to deal with it are the first steps,on the road to recovery,we realise we have a problem,some countries its absolutely normal in their culture,they dont even see the problem,its endemic and deep rooted.
  21. Thats better than africa has anproblem in some cases,africa has a worse problem,yup,thats much more accurate,so on scale our problem is smaller,but as previously stated any incidence is one incidence too many,so yup,we have a problem.
  22. It seems britain has such a problem with institutionalised child abuse.......Your words,i said we dont have an ingrained problem and in comparison its not as bad as at first appears on scale,africa is worse in some instances,SOME?We are cleaning up our act,learning from horrendous mistakes and governmental cover ups,but we are learning,we are making progress,we dont think marrying off our 10-12 year old daughters is the norm,now that there isninstitutionalised cultural child abuse dont you think?
