  1. Everitt Rat Trap That shot courtesy of James Bateman. " Animal Traps and Trapping ". I actually own a couple of examples of this delightful old trap, only I can't be doing with digging them out and photographing them by Flash light just now Thats a good book Ditch there's some ingenious traps in there, i fould that treadall trap for deer a jaw dropper... both constructing the bugger and having the fieldcraft to set it is awe inspiring. :whistle:
  2. Pendal Hill hey... don't the natives throw eggs around there on Halloween? Haven't seen any munters over there but only been up there a few times... there's few in Burnley on a Friday night mind you . :mamba:
  3. There is no sense what-so-ever in leaving the land bare of breeding stock. Control by all means but not eradication. Sorry to hear that bud.

Frist bury of the day as well at a cricket ground. They came out and proceeded to sting the shit out of me even as i was tearing across the wicket pulling my cloths off.
  5. A wasp nest ... and that was only once i had put a spade through it to clear the hole. Not very funny.
  6. :whistle: Fair doo's bud... horses for courses.
  7. quote name='minion' date='Jan 4 2007, 07:42 AM' post='169808'] To be honest I think there are two types of poachers. There are the guys who just want a bit sport for themselfs and their dogs and they respect the land and animals they persue. Then there are the ones who don't care about the land they are poaching. Walls and gates get damaged and that's what anoyes most landowners (in my experiance) and I think it's pathetic not to look after the land you are on. I don't have any permission as such, but I do work my dog fairly reguarly. I make sure that there is no damage to property and th
  8. Have a look on www.guntrader.co.uk and punch in the details on the listings. Will give you an idea of availability and you may be ably to pick up a bargain... not many of you south paws about.

  11. Great film that JOEB (Full Metal Jacket... not some seedy ponse flick... not my bag at all :sick: ) You can get a gold spot indication by looking at Ceefax (if you've an hour to kill searching for it) or by going on www.ft.com and searching for a stock called Gold Bullion Securities (ticker / short code is GBS). The price will be in US Dollars and represents 1 tenth of a troy ounce (standard of purity).

    Joke

    A bloke is having a chinese meal and calls the waiter over... Customer: This chicken is rubbery Waiter: Ohhh... thank yoh verry much! Try it next time you go for one
  13. Nah... bollocks... I recon you saw how bad your Mrs had cremated the turkey, fed it to the dog when she was out the room and decided to have a curry instead . Poor pooch getting the blame Wish i had thought of that...
  14. Quality pics bud. Really nice rack on that bad boy as well :thumbs-up:
  15. Next door neighbour had an alsatian which took offence to a little yappy dog whilst on a walk and proceeded to try and eat it. The bereaved owner got a bit pissed at this (as you would) and the chap had a letter come through from someone in the ivory tower saying that if it happened again it would be destroyed.
  16. If its killing cats can i borrow her for a week dirty feckers keep crapping in my garden and accosting my hens. :aikido:
  17. :welcomeani: Bud... nice pooch. Be good to hear how they progress. Have a good new year.
  18. Ditch is right mate... even my cack handed Mrs could knock up a box for a ferret. If you're really all thumbs you could use a bag as people used to do as long as you're careful. I've carried a jill around in a cartridge bag before now... not mine i hasten to add
  19. JESUS! Where's the butter knife and the Samurai sword? A hatchet?... i must be doing it wrong!
  20. Out on boxing day and shot one after browning a pack at about 30,000 feet... and that was the only shot i had. He was full of mast and what looked like leaf buds (?!)
  21. I'm pretty sure a lot of estates used them to help clear the land after the 'great storm' in the late 's as they chow everything... incidentally... i have a Sabel sidelock s/s 12b (25"), an Army and Navy s/s 12b (28") a .17HMR Anshuzt thumbhole Carbine and a CZ/Bruno .22. ... the master plan is to add a Fabarm LION 5-shot semi and Remi 700 in 6.5x55 by the end of the year... needless to say the Mrs doesn't know about that. :black eye:
