  1. You could take him stateside mate theres a few mountain lion guides who will take you out with the dogs to tree a cat and film/photograph it rather than shoot it so your not paying for a tag or expensive trophy.
  2. Fiennes always reminds me of one of those stiff upper-lip victorian gentleman adventurer types irrespective of his politics he is a survivor pushing himself beyond endurance.
  3. I googled an old mate of mine a couple of weeks ago as I was in the general region and wanted to know what he was up to Theres a pic of him and BEAR GRYLLS with Bear grylls saying if ever he needed a guide for a certain thing then my mate would be the first person he would go to
  4. Philippines isnt off the back of saudi mate,the muzzies or moro's as we call them are mainly on mindanao,if they are getting funded with big mosques etc it isnt showing as the place is shit poor,the moro's kick off constantly,bus bombings shopping centre bombings etc,they ambushed and killed 45-47 (opinions as to the exact number vary) coppers last month and shot the lot dead,theres quite a few from mindanao f****d off to fight with ISIS,i always wonder when I see a pakistani down that way what their reason for visiting is
  5. News reports say IS slew another 35 egyptian christians yesterday,and they are certainly on the move,Libya is but a hop-skip-and a jump away,its the jump off spot of choice for illegal immigrants into europe at the moment,straight over the med into italy via lampedusa..............

  11. Put yourself through vetmed uni then complain the price is too high,well said tomo.
  12. She might have been fattening the dog up?My neighbours dog dissapeared over christmas,local gossip is it was nicked to eat.I havent seen the program but vegetarianism probably wasnt a concept that caught on in 10,000BC,I used to get the METRO newspaper to read at the trainstation each morning,those reality show recruits wanted were normally advertised in the small ads at the back,the advert might have caught her eye while on her way to a tofu supermarket in chiswick
  13. I got a little bit more than that though the unit size I bought it in is hectares,the lure of the good life soon paled,its hard graft,when you say make a living from the land what sort of monetary figure are you comfortable with each month?
  14. That 330 snapping shut on his hand cant have done him any good,theres another reality type show due out alaskan bush men or some similar title?

  16. Turkey is the gateway to asia mate,all asian borders are porus as fcuk,turkey borders iran,which borders afghanistan/pakistan,pakistan borders india/china,etc,etc,etc..................europe is being swamped by ii's at the minute from all quarters,turkey joining the eu wont be good news at all.
  17. Its about time a commonsense party muscled their way in and broke the monopoly the eton and cambridge boys have enjoyed for far too long playing political chess with the lives of their voters,UKIP need to expand upon their policies instead of just keeping up the anti eu/immigrant tirade,whatever happens lets hope they cause a big enough ripple on the pond to rock a few boats.
  18. Exactly mate,another born on the right side of the tracks who didnt do it as a lifestyle choice but saw a niche in the media market and exploited it,HFW is a businessman,look at the cost of his rivercottage courses ,they aint cheap for a weekend,he might come across as a mildly eccentric bumbling upper class country yokel type but its all contrived and he is sharp as a scalpel blade.
  19. For him or agin him the guy has style,can you honestly imagine any of the other top politico's walking away from a plane crash the way he did,for fcuk sakes milliband cant even eat a bacon butty with panache
  20. I remember that program,I remember thinking he was financially well buffered from the reality and hardship of self sufficiency,wasnt he the guy who used a RIB to get up and down sea lochs?The last time I filled a RIB up it cost a small fortune,it must be easy street to be financed by a production budget.
  21. Its the only lake I have ever fished thats got a massage-parlour on site its got a couple of tackle shops,wifi,even a kids games room also One english guy who guides there offers 50% of your money back if you dont catch a 30lb fish,I dont think he has ever had to refund,I have been there when its a bite a cast and the sessions were frenetic,great lake,John Wilson is now retired to thailand and is trying to build up a reputation with his lake but he is overpricing it and aiming at well-heeled anglers,the place I fish has bigger species siamese catfish go over 100kg in this particular water,
  22. Carp gear is all you need for mackerel from the rocks,I used to catch mackerel from the rocks on gibraltar with carp tackle that worked just fine.
