  1. A worrying thought would be that if he had a bag of knives was he just the carrier and was going to meet up with a larger group of like mind attackers
  2. Anyone got any recommendations for a book or two on foraging in the U.K.
  3. How'd he get that spunk so shiny ?
  4. It was talked about on a morning program on channel 5 yesterday "the wright stuff" Some young lad in the U.K. Has just been given it on prescription from his gp, was having 200 seizures a day but since having cannabis not 1 in 3 months It has uses for sure, this young lad can now have a normal life

  12. A lot of these programs make me laugh, I like watching some of the Alaskan programs but feck me its over dramatised watched one the other day the guy hit a stone with his chainsaw and blunted it, well you would think the fecking world was gunna end, dramatic music, husky voiced narrater the lot ?
  13. Yeah I'm just throwing ideas around to try and make it a bit easyier if I can just zip from hole to hole with the auger (if it's up to stoney compact ground) I thought it could be a good idea To plant when all holes are dug I use knee pads and kneel swapping knees each tree There's something about the angle of my back when digging that just hits it bad, it's slightly better with long handled spades What does your work with trees involve? Forestry?
  14. I'm planning on starting a choose and cut Christmas tree farm from the smallholding seedlings 20-30 cm and undercut so an 6"-8" hole and same deep should do, I will be doing 500 a year so could dig but I do suffer with my back when digging!
  15. I'm planting lots of trees soon and was thinking of getting one to make it quicker, my ground is slightly stoney, sthil ones are expensive but I'm sure very good Has anyone tried the ones you can get around the £150-£200 mark on eBay/Amazon etc the reviews look ok for them Will they cope with a few stones?
  16. I've actually had a good day today, a day off spent at the holding tidying up came home to my NHS health check results (I'm over 40 now so got a free check up) everything fine although my bmi a bit high but then I'm a weightlifter so height weight thing is always a bit high for me And just celebrating with 4 pints of bud ? I'll prob have a heart attack in a minute ?
  17. How close to your hammock and tarp do you put an open fire? I was worried about sparks burning tarp etc so took the frontier
  18. If we get this snow end of the week I'm gunna go out for the night, be really nice
  19. Just down the smallholding Between the hammock and my bell tent I'm planing on spending more time down there from now on, I love it just me the fire and kettle, no TV or wife
  20. Well I had my first night out with new dd hammock, it was -3 cold enough to freeze my water kettle solid by morning but the under blanket kept me quite warm enough
  21. When I was an under keeper we were putting posts in on the rearing field, head keeper in a front loader full of stone for weight me holding posts up to get pushed in, it used to slip sometimes but I watched it close, anyway one time bit of hard ground and the loader almost had front wheels off the ground post splits loader comes crashing down smack on the top of my head I think if I was standing straight might of killed me but was crouched and bent over so just flattened me was out for only a few seconds
