  1. Sad state of affairs,was he the lad from A?My sis knows the family,hope you get the flowers sorted,try Flowers in the Attic near the council offices,I had a motorbike helmet wreath made for a mate who had an accident,condolences.
  2. Out several days ago,Tuna showing on the surface everywhere,trolled for an hour or so without even a touch cut the engine and sat back eating sarnies,Tuna within 20 yards of the boat and several sunfish,need a rethink of tactics
  3. Excellent pic's Nunavut,my lady is a canuck,I have looked into a caribou bowhunt,not that expensive either,thanks for the insight into a different way of hunting,be lucky
  4. Save your cash and buy a decent one,try and get a model with louvre ventilation and depending upon your crop think about fitting an extractor fan,I have grown in a few poly-tunnels,I always fit a 24 inch extractor as a matter of course,nothing worse than mould.
  5. Just been and bought Tuna Lures today,some of them were 45 euros apiece,a friend saw Tuna yesterday near Ibiza,if I get any I will post a pic,might'nt get out for at least a week though due to work.
  6. www.galgoes.com http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/topic/3860-galgos-from-spain/ Assume coursing is legal,if its boar or suchlike there are vast areas of nothingness,forested valleys etc,caza furtivo is a national sport or so it seems,no one stops you mooching about.
  7. Rabbits are few and far between,loads of wild pigs however,the guy who owns the fishing tackle shop got one of 90kg not long ago with his shotgun,I am out in the sticks and have only seen one running dog that being a borzoi owned by an old german guy,where you thinking of moving to?Plenty of cheap property at the moment including fincas.
  8. Ski-slopes at silky have changed a bit even Farringdon looks different
  9. Wasnt Fritz was it?Bolted with a border?

    Same question was asked a few weeks ago mate http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/topic/188722-grit-and-steel/page__p__1925533#entry1925533 I am in mainland europe for a few months doing some work or I would have posted you a few issues,theres a number of mags in pinas mostly sold in magazine/book sshops like national bookstore or pacifica agrivet stores,hope you find what your looking for,be lucky
  13. RFYL there are several gamefowl mags printed,I can think of maybe 7 off the top of my head,a good one is Pit Games,good luck in your search..............
  14. Worried about moi LG you old softy you,thought I was an unwillingly incarcerated guest in one of her majestys less than salubrious establishments?Just making a quid or two in the sun mate,nothing more,life moves on. Fishing mate?Lots of decent stuff in the sea from sharks to sailfish,I even saw two dugong(I know they aint fish but just for a moment I pondered.......... )freshwater your limited to catfish,tilapia,turtles etc.Couldnt keep a dog here,the locals love dogs,unfortunately they love them served with rice wild pigs etc kicking around but its not the sort of place you can wander arou
  15. If your off stateside theres cheap black bear hunts etc,always worth looking into.I couldnt hit a barn-door with traditional stick-and-string but once I got a bow with bells and whistles things changed,had a mathews drenaline for just over 2 years,great bow,got an open invite to hunt camel with it in Oz but thats on a backburner as I have other priorities at the moment but I look forward to the results you get with yours.
  16. Kept my place in Sunbury when I left,as you said its huge chasm twixt Sunbury and Hounslow,I always wondered what cloud the politicians had their heads in,multi-culturalism?Nigerians prefer peckham as its nigerian enclave in London,likewise somalins nowdays prefer places like Southall because its turning into mini-mogadishu,Indians prefer Hounslow because its indian shops,streets,restaurants etc,like normally attracts like,the idyllic sounding mixed neighbourhood of sikh,muslim,christin,brahmin all coexisting happily side by side in the same street sounds like some sort of think-tank utopia,
  17. Had 2 choices Canada or Asia,Canada is an incredible country,but the winters suck big-time,asia is ok for the short term,lived in several countries here in the past,the standard of living is good and I am making a few quid,but its not the end of the line in my game-plan,dont think I could retire in the UK though,its 30+ degrees and brilliant sunshine today,good enough for the time being.
  18. I will find the seller when I am somewhere with a better connection and send you the link mate,always ask them for a sample price.........Mack.

  19. Do a search on the trading website Alibaba mate,its the units with the yellow casing,I am sure they will do the job.

  20. Lifes ok mate,ups and downs,you know how it is,we are here for a good time not a long time so its best to make it count I guess,be lucky Maty..........Mack.

    P.S....Just remembered,those electric fishing machines,you can now get them in china for just over a hundred quid,theres guys here fish with wires from the power cables,next time I see it I will snap a few pics.

  21. Married a Canadian and am farming halfway up a mountain in Asia mate,I cant figure out how I ended up here either Maty,came into town for a Derby,lifes good,always be lucky in Life......Mack.

  22. Hows the fishing going Maty?I am in town for a week so I got internet access(sort of,the network isnt exactly broadband status).

  23. Pope Benedict XVI,didnt take you as a "without roots" reader wilfred.

    Not missing in action Waz,just havent lived in Europse for the last two years,this is the first time i have logged on in 2 years mate because of rumours circulating about me,someone told me I am apparently writing a book about MB????and that I am an anti,the THL rumour mill rumbles on I guess,I will put some pics of birds up for one of the guys on here when I get a better connection as I am liv...
