  1. Breathtaking, without a doubt IMO the best work you have ever done. And that takes Some doing seeing your other pieces. TC
  2. What is the name of the Hardy rod? As the Mitre range was a budget range at the time they were made in the 1960's. TC
  3. Rew, as much as I like you this has to be said. Your an idiot, for not stock training your dogs, (But I guess you know that now) Any dog that is not stock , cat, sheep, chickens, cattle etc etc steady is a big liability, not only to themselves but to every one and everything that comes into contact with them. How many times do we see a post where "my dog just killed a cat and the owner wants compensation". If you cannot train a dog to be steady with stock, cats I would question whether you should have a dog? It is not rocket science, and if you don't know how to do it then learn. Odd t
  4. And a good cooling pad to sit it on. TC

    Just phone any net supplier and tell them you want knot less netting, same as they use in sand eel trawls and seines cod ends. TC
  6. Just a thought, today has seen some of the best rugby played for a long time. I put it down to teams needing points on the board. How more entertaining would rugby be if they played like that week in week out. It would be fantastic. TC
  7. What a game of rugby that was, absolutely brilliant. One of the best games I have ever seen. Well done England and hard luck. TC
  8. Now that is how to win a game of rugby. Come on Scotland and France........... TC

    Fecking brilliant. :laugh: TC
  10. Having had a beagle cross, I know that feeling all too well. TC
  11. http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/topic/339480-you-gardeners-out-there/ Some good info in that thread. TC
  12. That said. 223 earths up his carrots and says carroty fly is not a problem. When he told us about it I tried it that year, with a small reduction in plants infected. TC
  13. Two farms I used to shoot around this area grew organic carrots, but they do sacrifice the edges of the fields to carrot fly. It is usually the first two rows each side of the field and about 5 or 6 feet on the ends of each row that get affected, the rest get let alone. It is as if when the fly comes across carrots they lay their eggs on the first ones they come across, even if those carrots have already been infected. If you looked at the field from a distance you could see the yellow foliage all around the edge of the field with a green centre. TC
  14. The Cuckoo sits in the tall green grass. It’s wings folded tightly, it’s beak up its ass. Now in this position it can only say twit. For it’s hard to say cuckoo with a beak full of $hit. Anon
  15. to deter carrot fly apart from buying carrot fly resistant seeds.Put a 2ft high polythene sheet all around your carrot bed ive read the carrot fly cant go over 18 inch high always had success using this method. I have never been able to grow carrots because of carrot fly. Last year I planted up a large box of carrots on top of my ferret cage. That will sort them Guess what? They had them there. I think with my back garden being on a slope the 2ft flying height does not count as no matter where I plant carrots there is always some ground higher than it that they can drop in off. TC
  16. Seriously though, it sounds as if in the first instance you have the very rare Teifi valley shrew. If you have they will have to turn your ground into a SSSI which means you cannot touch the ground. TC
  17. Only been there 2 minutes and already planning the destruction of all Welsh wildlife. TC
  18. I have been drawn back to look at these again and again. I must disagree with you, at first I had the same thoughts they are like photos, but when I looked at them again they are almost 3D. With the first portrait the way the kids cheeks puff out, the second one you can see the child's pride in the dog in his eye's and the cheeky grin. The lurcher has a life to it. Very rare would a photo get anywhere near conveying what those portraits do. TC
  19. I have made a couple of pigeon hides but always made them from square mesh using a 4" board and plenty of scrim. I used agouti purse net twine in green. TC
  20. You cannot beat a stone wall made with the stone that is natural to that area. Top job there. I done one in my back garden to make a growing area as the garden sloped at almost 45 degrees. Still going strong 20 years later and will out last me thats for sure. TC
  21. TC, how many people do you think that medium has seen and given some sort of random 'fact'? 100?......1000?.......10'000? Now, how many do you think it would take until one came true? People never remember the unimpressive results of chance, only the amazing ones. When viewed as a complete set it suddenly seems a lot less amazing. Thinking about it now the chances of it happening seem pretty remote to me, the odds must be astronomical. But I think she was a clairvoyant not a medium, there is a difference. A medium supposedly deals in communication between the living and the dead,
  22. This is a tale related to me by my aunt about 15 years ago. In 1954 my mother and her sister went to see a medium. The medium told her she was pregnant and that she was having a boy, my mother had only found out she was pregnant a couple of days before hand. The medium then clutched her right hand and grimaced, she then went on to say he would have two fingers missing from his right hand. As you can imagine that really upset my mother. When I was born I had a normal right hand and the visit to the medium was forgotten about. In 1970 I had my accident with a train and lost 2 fingers
