  1. How much you getting quoted for that mate? Notringham to Gloucestershire is what? 100 -130 miles ? How much does this boat weigh ?
  2. Kings would be one to call or a boat yard would recommend someone I’m sure. Worth talking to the right people as I would think that’s an oversize load and there would be all sorts of rules that laymen like me wouldn’t know about mate. If you need to move a 500 person office from lands end to John O Groats I can tell you, boats I’m not so up on ! Lol
  3. I believe they shoot them in Scotland ?
  4. A pretty nice picture from today
  5. If they come anywhere near my farm they definitely won’t be getting a foothold, they will be getting leathered !
  6. Perfect example yesterday, there will be thousands and thousands of blokes like me (who have been using a mask and carrying hand sanitiser etc etc) looking at the protest in Trafalgar Square and then watching the police used batons against those people. And like me they will be thinking “Hold on, they let tens of thousands of coons run absolute riot around the globe for two weeks and never lifted a finger” ?? Its that type of blatant bollocks that gets people saying “f**k all this” Its why nobody cares what the government says.......they are creating the situation
  7. Funny enough, I was talking to my old mum this week, she was 7 when WW2 started and 13 when it finished. They had curfew, black out, rationing and had to carry a gas mask.......nobody questioned it, they just got on and did it. As I said to her, that was a very different nation then.....forget the government, there’s no national identity and so there is no national solidarity Thats why Sweden can get away with no legal lockdown, they just pull together as a people !
  8. That’s your door going in at 6am ! Lol
  9. I totally agree with you, I don’t think the mind is equipped to deal with all this information never mind the amount of negative information.....it’s very, very unhealthy mate.
  10. All true mate. As you say, we are all guilty but it’s a sad fact that “the net” and it’s various platforms are a reality......over here Facebook is massive, loads of business gets done via FB. Its just something you have to be a part of to reach any kind of an audience. I suppose the trick is, exploit it as much as you can and let it exploit you as little as you can. However as I probably don’t need to tell you “behaviour science” has been part of government thinking since Lloyd George and probably before that. Anyone who sells anything for a living uses their own litt
  11. Yes mate.......when you could post things in here there was worse than that.
  12. Well anything you want to know, just ask and if I know I’ll tell you mate. Having been through the process already it may come in handy for you
  13. I have to say, great post matey ?
  14. They owned the place they lived mate and it was picture postcard, as you know it’s a wonderful spot there in Devon. That picture don’t do the house justice, it was amazing. Had to sell the land and that’s when they came here.....they have a tidy little business selling home grown veg, jam, chutney and eggs. Also selling baskets and doing courses in how to do it. I supply them with a few eggs when they don’t have enough and swap for a box of veg, jam, goats milk fudge etc Exactly how life should be mate ?
  15. Not the same as weapons but we are friends with a local couple and she is brilliant at loads of traditional skills. She weaves the most amazing baskets and has just made me a sheep skin rug out of some black and white fleece from one of my sheep.....all done as it would have been done all those years ago. https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/amp/uk-england-devon-43546956 This is them, lovely couple and another of the type NOT wanted in England.....she is part of our growing community of refugees ! Lol
  16. Now lads, are we talking about the black Viking’s or the White Vikings ?
  17. 4 months and between 2 and 5 grand fines for knocking a pig but you can throw statues in Bristol docks with absolutely no come back......amazing !
  18. It varies mate, but pretty expensive yes.
  19. Have not got a clue mate, the last two I killed I probably came home with maybe 200kg of pork ?.....maybe more I’m hoping the cattle yield about 180kg of beef.
  20. Dead ! Lol ? All the pork is in the freezer now mate
  21. They are actually from an old pedigree Angus herd specially imported to Australia from Scotland. Because of the weather out there they wanted to try and breed an animal that did well just on forage, calved easily and also produced a decent amount of beef. They established 3 groups at the research centre out there, Top line, middle line and Low Line and the low line out performed the others over the 30 years they ran the experiment. They are about 60% the size of “standard” cattle but don’t carry the dwarfism gene like small dexter. Anyway, 30 years and they shut the experim
  22. Yes mate.....you must be one of the few people in Ireland who know that.
