LOL. Not a chance................. :laugh:

Iv'e got 13 of these. May be able to get hold of a few more. If anyone wants any, I can bring them to the comp. They were manufactured in July 2011 and have been on trickle charge since then (Don't ask) All procedes to Make a Wish charity. Say £2 or £3 each, possibly a £5 ?? If no one wants any of them, they will be re-cycled. Arch.

Birds Nests And Eggs Thread

You didn't cycle past us last Friday did you ?? We were on the Stoke road working near Oak Tree Fm. -
Glencoe's nice. The drive up from Tyndrum and over Rannoch moor is spectacular. A drive all the way down Glen Etive is worth a go. Nothing there when you get there, but just quite. TBH, anywhere on the West coast is always going to be nice.

Birds Nests And Eggs Thread

great stuff ossie glad they went back,its just a shame i never took pics as a kid and left the eggs alone but we all done stupid things growing up and the field craft i learned over the years is helping me now finding nests i would never have found as a younster Yep, was good to see. We didn't think the parents would carry on as if nothing had happened, but they did. We should have taken some pictures too. -
House. Me folks weren't pub people and i'm not either. Having said that, I don't think you can beat the taste of a pint of real Ale from a pub. Bottle/Tinned Ale comes nowhere close. There is a place nearby that just sells Bitter, Mild and Lager. A few spirits and something for the women. No till, the money is on the back counter. No juckbox or fruit machine and always a roaring fire in the winter. Be careful if you sit down, coz you'll be in someones place. Proper pub. I'm not really sure why it's still going TBH. The Bass is spot on though, maybe thats it.

We had to change a pole over today. Inside the cable guard that was running up the side of pole was a Great Tit nest with 7 or 8 chicks. We tried our best to take the guard off as carefully as possible. We managed to save the nest and put it into a new guard and leant it against an Ash tree. The parents were about but didn't go to the new nest site. When we'd finished, we put the nest back into some of the old cable guard and nailed the gaurd back on the new pole. We didn't think the tits would return. We left site for dinner, but when we'd finished we had to return to the next field to ma -
Hope we're not expected to shake your hand when you've won the fishing comp then ?? What with it being covered in all that shitty fish slime from those hundreds of fish you're gonna catch, eh Otter. :laugh:

Fecking hate bad manners. Manners cost nothing. Please and thank yous. Holding doors open. Waving if someone lets you pass in your car. Same with table manners and knowing how to eat. Fast food has a lot to answer for with eating food with your fingers rather than on a plate with a knife and fork. My daughters boyfriend eats like a pig and slaps his chops all the way through a meal, right puts me off it does. Tosser. As for handshakes, nice and firm and if you're wearing a hat, take it off while you're shaking hands (and when your eating too) Even taught my daughter to give a firm han

No. But he is our patron saint. Happy Saint Georges day.

Same here. The sports not all about catching. If truth be told i enjoy the mooch and chase more that the catch.

They were a bit of a squeeze to get them in. ........And you can tell the size of fish i'm used to catching.

Just got back from one, fished the pole up against an island and got smashed up by carp lol, had size 14 pellet hook straightened out, mind you the carp lads never hooked f**k all lol Ended up with about 8lb of nice roach and 1 carp, Old habits, as soon as I bumped a good roach on the carp rig, out came the waggler rod and fished caster and maggots, enjoyed it tbh... How do you get on mate...? Fished for about 6 hours Kev. Would've liked to have stayed longer, but the dogs hadn't been out. Fished a method feeder all day. 60/70 yard chuck to the island. 6 proper bites, Carp

I'm off to the local carp puddle in a bit, just to blow the cobwebs away. Haven't fished for pigs for years.................. I'm more of a purist me. Pellets, boilies, method feeder, pellet feeder, pellet wag, hair rigs, bait bands, method mix, blah-blah-blah. FFS, whats wrong with a 1/2 of Bronzies ??

Don't mind Bob, somewhere near the comp I suppose mate? I've still got to sort the kids out yet, I thought it was the 23rd, and the missus is away the 17th weekend, so I'm hoping the parents will sit for me. the reason i asked ive only fished it round hereford http://www.monmouthfishing.co.uk/ Here ?? Only down the road. £10 a day or £40 for the season. Depending on what Michelle wants to do, I may be there for the week.
