    Some photos of me raised beds, if your wondering why they are not all in a straight line, it's because "her majesty" changed her mind where she wanted them after I'd built the first one

    Sorry Ghengis but that pasty is probally a Ginsters one and it will taste like the shit they make it with. This is a proper Cornish pasty Made with skirt beef, turnip, potatoes, onion, salt and pepper, and shortcrust pastry, put in oven for 20 mins at 200 degrees, then 180 for 45 mins, turn off oven and let rest for 10 mins before eating, 'andsome

    I've been round the back of a crem, the one I saw had about 6 chambers/furnaces, each had a little glass window. After the service in the chapel, when the coffin dissapears through the curtain, it will be loaded into a numbered furnace, when they start burning the body sits up , when it's finished they just scrape the ashes into a pot with steel balls that revolves around at speed and all the ash/churks are broken down into a fine powder, then it's into the urn and Bob's your Fathers brother, (dead of course)

    I too got an O level in Rural Studies, also in my English exam we had to give an oral on any topic we chose for 20 mins. I chose shotguns and shooting, on the day, I was allowed to take into school a Greener single barrel, with Martini action, and a AYA side by side. They were kept in the Headmasters office before and after the talk, that was 1977, I couldn't imagine that would be allowed today. And, my talk went on for well over the 20 mins, the teacher and examiner were that interested, they did'nt stop me, also I can remember at junior school being allowed to go to the meet of our local pac

How about you catch a few... then try a few different recipies, and post the results Can't hurt i suppose, as long as it isnt toxic or anything *if it is please let me know, or you will have my blood on your hands* i'l give it a try whenever i get one and tell y'all Will ferrets eat them? Ferrets will eat them, weasels are one of their predators, as will badgers, stoats, etc. the mustelid family will eat just about anything.

    MT, i have just bought and tried a batch of the Solways, only one little thing wrong as far I'm concerned, the trigger being too long for my liking, although soon remedied with a bit of light filing. Good strong spring, cheaper than it's rivals, and I would reccomend them, I dealt with Solway direct and am very happy.

    as you say most people who go pigeon shooting go out to shoot wood pigeons and if any one cant tell the difference between the two shouldnt be allowed to own a gun let allowed to use it ,and also the rspb have installed false nest sites for peregrines [fact] and just look at the decline in song birds and say its natural balance if all pigeon men /women kept there pigeons in when the peregrines are breeding half of them would starve to death as they wouldnt find enough food to feed there young i find that utter bullshite there "just look at the decline of song birds"! song birds get taken

    Or better still, use a Glen Waters breakaway snare, see thread in snaring section.

    This is what happens when you catch Billy Badger, although I set my snares high, occasionally Brock will still get his feckin head through, this is what happens when you use a Glen Waters breakaway snare. The snare as it was and would be set, This is the snare after the pull out, You can quite clearly see where the wire has been opened by the washer The eye will not open if a fox is caught. This is so simple when you look at it, but I would never have thought of it in a million years, and you can make your own for pennies, I take my hat off to you Glen.

    Flying pigs use a similar method. doh! Mavphil, Are you saying sparrowhawks don't take pigeons? GOOD GRIEF! do I have to spell it out? Of course sparrowhawks take pigeons! what they dont do is kill for FUN. Their energy is precious, if they are sated they dont fly, any BOP keeper will tell you they have to be lean to fly. If they leave a kill its because they are have been disturbed by something (usually people or dogs/cats) ,. A pigeon is a good feed for a sparrowhawk and it would not need to feed for a good while after eating one. It is also wise to aware that people have a habit of

    Bullet says, i find that utter bullshite there "just look at the decline of song birds"! song birds get taken by aload of different prey, mainly cats! there more pigeons in towns and cities to keep peregrines in food for a life time the arsepca ought to do proper surveys of the natural balance its the arsepca who are trying to ban any form of hunting including falconry Except the peregrines don't hunt in the towns and cities, they stoop from a long way up, your average feral pigeon only flies from it's roost to the street and back up to a window ledge, as I said before the sparrow
