The Police in Limehouse nick don’t get me started on them they gave me a good hiding one night they kicked me so hard in the bollocks and threw me in the cell for the night I still wince thinking about it lol, they all used to drink in the Lovat arms which was next door to the nick I believe a boozer we used to swerve.

Champions Manchester City I think if they come through this next seven days on top Liverpool second Spurs third. It would be good to have a Hunting Life dream team mini league I’ve been doing it for years it’s good banter through the winter months, can you imagine the level of abuse and banter on here it would be great.

It’s one of the main answers Mr firearms officer wants to hear about taking a shot with a good backstop if in doubt don’t take the shot. We all make mistakes I made a bad error of judgement once but I got away with it I couldn’t stop thinking of the consequences if I hadn’t, and no I’m not discussing it on here I’d get the piss ripped out of me lol. Good on you for asking though there’s some very experienced shooters on here.

This reminds me of a time when I appeared on flog it we had a porcelain teapot that played tea for two, for years we were told it was worth a lot of money all through my kids childhood I used to scream at them mind the teapot lol. On the day of filming we waited four and a half hours with this poxy teapot, the celebrity expert come up to the table on approach he started laughing and said I bet that plays tea for two you’ll be lucky to get £20 for that and then said German tat. I nearly hit him over the head with it lol.

Translation Gents very interesting I never new they were for Bats. The interior of the large gite for colonies and hibernation is the same as that of 1FS. This large cottage has three fluted wooden plates allowing bats that live in cracks to hang. Thanks to the patented double wall system and the many layers of insulating material, the 1FW house offers unsurpassed insulation in winter. The hibernation of bats is however ensured thanks to the thermoregulatory material and automatic aeration. It is used as a summer cottage for raising young and promotes the formation of colon

Thanks for the link Arry very good site they described the Sulphur tuft to a tee as for the Trooping funnel I’m confident they are what you say but a mistake with the Ivory funnel is death deadly poisonous they are described as bad as the death cap. Thanks for the input interesting subject mushrooms so many out there but wish it wasn’t like a game of Russian roulette eating them.

I’ve met quite a few people over the years from Quebec very interesting people I even got a shout on a Quebec rock radio show from a DJ who I hooked up with in Cuba, in French as well it was class lol. As for the Sri Lanka trip we are going early December and I aim to do as much as possible so I will research those places you mentioned and pencil them in. Great pics by the way of the plane trip you do get about your never home lol good though one life and all that.

Yes it’s a real nice place I will take another look it’s one of those places hundreds of people drive by and wouldn’t have a clue it’s there.

Thanks for taking a look Arry they did look a bit suspicious and I did swerve, it’s that skinny stalk that had me curious, I found them in an old 100 year old orchard which is close to me it’s got a bit of history soldiers returning from WW1 started it and it’s still giving although this year the apple harvest was well down on last year surprisingly.

I’ve already given an opinion on Cape Verde in a previous post but if was to advise if you are dead set on that part of the world go to The Gambia I’ve been twice I’ve stayed in Kotu and in the largest hotel in the capital Banjul next to old president Jammehs palace he’s been binned off now though. Much more to see and do high 30s at Christmas time although massive poverty and you will get hassled and heat on the street it’s how you deal with it that counts little tip if you get hassled on the beach just jump in the sea they don’t like getting their trainers wet lol.
