dougie s410k, i think you and me are talking about the same bloke now you say he is a big headed twat, does he sell scollops as well, that he dives for, if you read this could you get back to me cheers.

certainly plenty of casual work down here as long as you dont mind competing against the easterns. cornish guardian order it through your local wh smith whatever, thats your place to look seeing as your search is place specific. :thumbs-up:

strange and unushall but useful tools when ferreting
mole trapper replied to woodchip's topic in Ferrets & Ferreting
note to self never piss woodchip off. VERY SCARY. -
yep it is possible ,i think the last time i did it they charged me a twenty quid handling fee.

old design but still a really useful weapon in the fight against ratty, plays quite an important role in my smaller jobs. (mainly domestic ones). :thumbs-up:

Down here pubs will pay £1 a rabbit done off, met a bloke recently through stalking reckons hell take as many as i can get,gutted and frozen, a quid each, hes got a stall in a london market where he sells game. After reading dougies post i can see why he is willing to drive all the way down here.

well done, now you have found your first bit, youll pick up more as long as dont take the p..s, remember slowly slowly catchy monkey, havent got a clue what that means, i suppose play your cards right and youll have more ground than youll know what to do with. :thumbs-up:

Anybody interested in a jagersport deluxe roe sackj, comes complete with heavy duty liner, two exterior pockets, adjustable straps etc, genuinly never been used, which if you looked at it you could tell. Would make an excellent bag for carrying longnets, half a ton of ferreting gear or whatever. They sell for about a hundred quid, if your interested send me a pm with a sensible offer. :thumbs-up:

anyone interested in 200 brass rabbit snares, they are a mixture of six and eight strand, about half of them have been weathered hanging outside, the other half are still bright and will need dulling down. none of these have been used, they have the crappy green wool on them that they come with, this should obviously be replaced with something more realistic. Can not remember how much i paid for them, look on e bay for a rough idea, if your interested pm me and make a sensible offer. :thumbs-up:

same as MW said both sorts you need to give fruit or veg for a few days then starve for two then they are ready to cook.

These snails are often called the Roman snail (Helix Pomatia), thought to have been brought over with the romans, the area of the cotswolds i was born in has a lot of these, this area was also an extremley major roman centre. These are the ones you pay a fortune for in french and italian resturants, known as escargot, Our common snail, which the french call petit gris, (helix aspersa), is equally edible, and personally my favourite, in the shell, tossed in melted garlic butter. :tongue4:

bugger when it goes like that, i am looking at securing the transmitter collar better to the ferret, trouble is doing it in such a way as not to impede the ferret any more than a collar does normally, hmm.

what juckler said about the army, i think it was on whiteway estate near exeter, the marines used to play at night, the gamekeeper back then got them using nv to look out for poachers, one night they spotted a person so they snuck up on him and pounced, poor fu...[bANNED TEXT] nearly shit his pants and came close to having a coronary, he was the shepherd checking on his animals. anybody remember the gimmicky stuff of the eighties like the blue eye and the clear eye.

fpo i would have thought it more apprpriate if you were a wolf, you seem to do a lot of howling at night.

i think i am right in saying you will find its twelve years not five, my old man lives on his farm over in wales. he just got it sorted last year , he can now build a single storey dwelling, but only the same size as the static hes been hiding away in or some such BS. Anyway its fu...ng stupid anyway this pr..k blair is letting half of the dross of europe in here and we were already overcrowded ,theres not enough housing, but funny isnt it were not allowed to do this, and yet not a mile from me is a fu...ng diddy with about ten acres full up to overspill with poles living in squallor in two be

as tight as a ticks ass. act in haste ,repent at leisure. never a truer word spoken. many a true word spoken in jest.

my god i had forgotten all this stuff, brought up on a farm, or should i say brought my self up on a farm, at seven had my first airgun, at nine had a bolt action fourten , at eleven had a side by side twenty bore, all of these i would just go for miles around on my own, me mum and dad would just leave me to it . once my jobs were done, my time was my own. Fell into a swollen river and remember being under the water seeing all the fresh water shrimps and thinking time to get to the bank before i drown. You could ramble on for years about the stuff that happened. Dont know if there were social

v max ,great piccys, bloody stupid that we are not allowed to use 22 centrefires for the smaller species down here,they say it will come, but talking to a mate who is something to do with the bds , he reckons theyll try to veto it.

i wondered why its so slow sometimes, i thought someone was hand delivering the posts.
-
was looking at getting one of these BSA tactical xl jobbies in .22, does anyone know anything about them. I want a air gun sub fac for when i do feral jobs indoors. think it looks the part, but is it just show.

oh dear thats got my imagination running wild.

What i am after is some input on what to use for the springers you attach to the snare, i have caught rats quite well over the years and always used hazel, trouble is it doesnt stay springy very long. Started a new rat job on a farm today absolutley heaving in them, brilliant super highways everywhere, got me rat snares, just need a better spring to attach them to any one invented anything for this. By the way only trying this as another form of control, put down nearly 30 kg of bait today.

just my opinion but this whole argument reminds me of when we all (hopefully) stood together up london and gave up a few days and not at inconsiderable cost to some of us, to stand up for the fox hunting people, hopefully through commeraderie,and mutual respect, inevitably hunting was banned. Within weeks the CMW is getting a steady flow of letters from disgruntled fox hunters ranting on about lamping blood thirsty maniacs rampaging around the countryside maiming foxes, and if this is allowed to carry on foxes would be wiped out in this country. blah blah. Forget the sour grapes ,lifes to shor

just as paulus said, i to sold my 17, expensive ammo, after i bought it couldnt really see the point in it, .22 does one job , 22.250 does the next, just had to try one to see what all the fuss was about. Like they say one mans meat is anothers poison, some people love them, personally i wouldnt give one space in my cabinets again.
