  1. I suppose I had better clarify. Gratuitous photos of dead animals in my opinion do nothing bar massage the ego of the author. That said, given the right context they can be an integral part of a story. Sort of from finding the tracks, placing the trap through to the coup de grace type of story. TC
  2. As a non trapper I do wonder if my input would be valid, but I will give it anyway. Photos of trapped animals do nothing for me, but as above with Dido the method used would really interest me. It does seem to me that the perceived humaneness of a trap all depends on the viewers perspective and trapping history. I see nothing wrong with the soft leg hold trap, however I can see that an animal trapped that way would be stressed. That said, any animal that is trapped alive will be stressed so do we stop using live rat or squirrel cages? I may be a million miles away, but would I wish to
  3. Gaz I hope she is found soon, not so much for yours and the dogs sake but for your daughters sake, she will be devastated if the dog is not found. Good luck with the search. TC
  4. Wire viz are very well thought of in falconry circles also. A good HPR. TC
  5. There's a new game out for the mums of kids with Pokemon go, it's called Chardonnay Go. https://www.(!64.56:886/denablizzard/videos/924079277703563/ TC
  6. We have Merlin's here inland, plenty of Peregrines on the coast and inland. The Merlin prefers higher ground and a few years ago I did hear of one nesting in a dwarfed pine tree. A mate of mine flies Merlin's at skylarks he has a licence for so many a year. Very often when on the higher ground looking for skylarks wild Merlin will buzz his falconry one. I have only heard of one unconfirmed sighting of a Hobby here, they just do not seem to like the west coast. TC

    Well I would suck her tampon through her dirty socks. TC
  8. You and top dog are putting every one to shame. Please keep up the good work both of you. Fantastic photography. TC
  9. Beautiful fish. Night time fly fishing for Seatrout can be the most exhilarating type of fishing there is. All alone with just the wildlife and the sounds of the river, punctuated with the odd fish jumping your senses seem to go to another level. Then on the fifth time down the pool you get that long slow draw, you tighten and all hell breaks loose. Nothing like it, it seems to take forever to play the fish, eventually you land it and even in the dark they have a beauty about them that in my opinion no other fish can muster. TC
  10. But the fact of the matter is you do not have to pay the £25 to vote. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/labour-party-leadership-contest-vote-jeremy-corbyn-new-members-momentum-vote-avoid-paying-25-fee-a7133851.html Firstly, people can join the Unite union as a community member, paying 50p a week until becoming an affiliate member by 8 August. This would allow members or anyone interested, including students and the unemployed, to vote in the upcoming election. Secondly, if you are black, Asian or belong to an ethnic minority, you would be eligible to vote in the election
  11. I went to pictures for the afternoon last year and missed it. TC
  12. Warfarin poison may only be deployed out of doors against grey squirrels for tree protection. If you don't know what you are talking about, its best to say nothing. I see you have made 116 posts to the date of this post. 99 of them must have been against Shropshire mole, has he had a fling with your misses or what? It does seem that your dislike of him does cloud your judgement somewhat. http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/topic/358697-squirrels-above-suspended-ceiling/?do=findComment&comment=4260092 Just an observation.

    Cats

    No it's not, it's the dog owners fault for not breaking the dog to cats. Any dog that chases cats is an accident waiting to happen. There are endless possibilities of what could happen, even ending up with lost human life if the cat runs out on a road with the dog chasing it. There is nothing macho about killing cats with dogs. If you can't break a dog to cats I would seriously suggest you don't have one. TC biggest load of shite, best get back to your knitting Yet again you prove your just a tit. TC
  14. Brilliant shot, but how the feck did you get it? TC
  15. Yes, just freelined. This means I don't have to worry about losing end gear and can often bounce / skate the slug across the surface under some overhanging bush. The chub are well tuned to the plop of a slug off the vegetation, it must sound like a dinner bell to them. Would recommend taking a latex glove to handle the slugs, I forgot today and ended up having to use a scouring pad to get all the dried slime off my hands when I got back. I used to fish for trout with slugs on flood water, there were no rubber gloves available then, Used to have to wash my hands with sand and soap to g

  17. I love reading about something different and it works. TC
  18. Your having a laugh surely, who drew that up? A 12 year old? TC
  19. The thing I do not get is, he told the officer he was legally carrying a concealed weapon, if he had any intention of using it why would he tell them that? TC

  21. 1. That I was able to see my kids grow up in to fully functioning adults with a great work ethic. 2. That out of my pier group I am the one on the least medication. 3. I have never been a materialistic person, so easily pleased, small things have given me the greatest of pleasure. TC
  22. Back to the time I was 15 but with the knowledge I have now. TC
