Fantastic series and amazingly not renewed for a third season. The main serial killing guy was the absolute spit of the real fella. Was fascinating getting, an albeit dramatised, look into his mind.

One of my favourite times of year. I don’t get involved with all the keepering stuff anymore, but I love dogging in. I’m fortunate to have a very nice self contained signature drive to dog in on two minutes from home. Sounds daft but I have lads come over just to put a sensible number of birds in front of their dog. Its quite pleasing seeing three figures picked on the drive you have been looking after and have the keeper say in front of the whole line “that’s your hard work”. Which is of course modest nonsense, there’s much more to keepering than running spaniels about, but it shows genu

Regular sicario you. 100% you’ll be on the badger cull… and everyone will have to hear about it. -

Because killing it would do absolutely nothing for control but probably weaken the quality of what is only a small population, and produce no meat of value. I’d have a fantastic head sitting in peroxide right now, which I’ve wanted for some time. But he wasn’t the one, not this time at least. On other land, I’ve took plenty of heads. But it is just that, taking a trophy. Any other reason is just an excuse. Took a muntjac doe off the same place tonight. That’s actual meaningful control. -

Absolute nonsense. You don’t control deer populations by killing dominant males. Real control is done in the winter months fella. -

In places that are hooching with stuff I wouldn’t be bothered and would likely be boiling his head out today. Just seemed wrong. -

Was out for a munty last night and within 10 mins found this guy holding 3 hinds with a calf each. Shit pic, but he was tearing up the field, head back with his lip curling. Let out the odd roar. I looked around for a lesser stag but couldn’t see one. Unfortunately the only reds I’ve ever had a chance on have all been master stags and so far I’ve refused to kill them… I did see something I’ve never witnessed or heard of before. I watched a munty literally chase a fox for two fields, before I lost sight. Came out the same paddock as the stag. Couldn’t have been more than five ya -
It is mate. It's a shop, but it's more like a mini natural history museum. About half way down broadway.

Look for a little taxidermy type shop on broadway called evolution. I think you’ll like having a nose around there.

I was the opposite funnily enough, didn't rate TX or OKH really. Nothing wrong with them, just not places I'd make the effort to go back to. I reckon Wyoming/Montana/Idaho/Colorado would be a bit of me though. Even Virginia and North Carolina.
-
I loved it there and will go back one day. Enjoy.

Can we be sure it’s not a hologram?

Just what I thought. Second pic.

Kids now don’t understand that we couldn’t rewind and pause tv, or for that matter control it with a remote. I’m not even old and I’ve seen changes that the young generation would think I was lying about. I’m just old enough to remember a time before internet and mobile phones were the norm. That’s how fast tech advances. I would say within my lifetime cash will be history. The post millennial generations will demand it imo. But who knows in this crazy world.
-
I mean I’m not putting a date on it lol. I agree it’s probably not imminent. Not suggesting your death is imminent! Ha. But the shift is visible and technology will provide the means for petty private transactions which cash currently does. How many generations until virtually everyone has a smart phone… the only thing realistically stopping it right now is acceptance. As the generations roll on the controversy will just not be understood because they will have known little different. I’m in my thirties and I very well remember cash being exclusive currency. Few generations and cash will

Eventually mobile phones will be all you need to quickly transfer currency. At that point cashless will be very possible.

Discussing when cash has to be accepted.
-
Woah, you said cash has to be accepted. That’s factually incorrect. That fallacy might make retailers bottle it but it’s still a fallacy. It doesn’t bother me either way, I’m not a retailer and I don’t have problems paying for stuff. But reality is that you wouldn’t have any legal grounds to go if a retailer didn’t bottle.

Amazing
-
There’s not law that states that.
-
From the horses mouth fella. What is legal tender? WWW.BANKOFENGLAND.CO.UK Many people are confused about what legal tender means. It’s actually about settling debts...
-
I don’t bet mate. But it’s a fact. It might be a line that gets you places but it’s not a fact.
-
It can be refused in retail. It can’t be refused as payment for a debt. But shops don’t have to accept it.
-
I genuinely don’t know mate, I just find it boring tbh. Crypto is currently little more than a fake commodity that is traded. What is interesting about cryptos is their potential as a currency free from government control. Blockchain though I just haven’t made the effort to understand.
