Apparently, Glitter wants cremating when he dies and his ashes putting in an Etch-a-Sketch...... so the kids can continue to play with him.

Can anyone confirm what I've heard...Fellmesser is to be Shay's pageboy! :sick:

True grit and dunno the other Spot on with the first one Scotty. The other comes from "One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest", when the nutters escape by getting on the bus and the lass on board says to all the retards, quite seriously..."Are you all nuts?" To which they all nod yes, proudly! Classic. "Hands off cocks, on socks"....Judd in KES. Duvall actually said "Thats bold talk from a one eyed fat man" I stand corrected Scotty. This is class.

Here's two film quotes that always make me smile; "That's mighty big talk for a one eyed fatman". and "Are you all nuts?"

Sounds like "The Six Fell Packs" to me...first verse and chorus, "Now I'll give you a toast lads to all the Fell packs, To Masters, to Huntsmen and whips of all makes, You can have your athletics and games of all sorts, But this hunting is surely the greatest of sports. Tally-Ho. Tally Ho. Tally Ho. Hark Forrard good hounds, Tally-Ho". Cragman.

This does for me every time.

It could be worse Brummy...you could have Elton John sitting on your face!

Simoman, looking at that photo, you're missing his first novel, something about a fox running around on a fell! I posted mine to Wales. I heard today that he has another new one out...about Willie Irving, Melbreak huntsman etc. I dare you.

The most I've had was 114 after my paper round, and I was on my mountain bike as well!

Gary, I've done the same twice this spring/summer, and they've had to be removed, that's the deal. However, walking the terrier last week around the plant where I park up, and there were two cubs rolling in the dust, play fighting, about 100yds away. The cctv picked them up too, all FOUR of them running round the area like they owned it! I've found that they're kipping on the motorway embankment during the day, but they're safe for now.

A pricked or wounded Woodcock are notoriously hard to find for a dog if it's not marked well...Could that be the problem? I've seen dogs pass over them and struggle to find them, this experts attribute to the Woodcock not giving off much scent when wounded and sitting on eggs. A kind of survival mechanism kicks in.

Trappa. There's far too many that would have shot the fox to big-up their egos with no thought as to why they've shot it. Why shoot such a lovely animal trying to live out its life, where it's not causing any bother at all? I've had lots of opportunities in the past to do the same but I've always let them go about their business, in fact, it's interesting watching them mooching about.

Hedgehog!

Sean, due to their large numbers, urban foxes are carriers of mange, amongst other things. I shifted a couple recently out of a mates back garden. There was fox shit all over the place, food debris, stench and damage to his boundaries and garden and with his two little kids wanting to play on the lawn etc, it was obvious that they'd have to go...and go they did! Full of mange they were.

Great article by Robin Page this week in the Shooting Times....

There used to be a company called Honey Brothers, tree surgeons and arboreal specialists somewhere down south. Type in "climbing irons" and see what you get. Otherwise any shop that sells the tree felling gear and tools will either have them in stock or will be able to order them for you.

I do the haircuts for the lads in work...easy stuff really, number ones, twos or whatever, shave the backs of their necks with a razor, trim ear and nose fluff and eyebrows, for feck all. Had the terrier at the vets this morning, in fact he's still there. He lost a chunk of his ear and had a tear on his flank when a large retriever type dog just bounded over and got hold of him as the wife walked him ON a lead....The vet's quoted a ton or more to snip off the piece of ear and stitch him up. The bill will be on the owners mat when he returns this evening, twat!

Oddie wants a rocket up his arse, the man's a cu*t! That was the final straw last year when he advised any watching Mink to commit suicide. The discussion was about the lack of Water Voles and the reason....Mink! Rather than admit to getting the feckers trapped and shot he advised them to commit suicide. The man's a knob. That Kate Humble is worth one and if I got at her she wouldn't walk for a week, but to call young Blue Tits in the nest box, "babies" meant me turning the tv over. Could you imagine Attenborough using a term like that? Anthropomorphic softies.

They must be travelling the country doing this. A local farmer had his nicked a few months ago though the tw*ts who took his did so quite expertly. How they got passed the two chained up collies is beyond me, but they did without a murmur from them. They then put the quad onto a lowloader and drove away...rolling down a slight hill from the farm with the ignition off!

Well done Kay, keep it up you'll feel better for it. I enjoy walking out and especially with the footpacks on the fells, it certainly keeps me fit. During summer I bike it in work when I can. I've been off work this week so I've been out every day walking somewhere. Saturday I did the yorkshire Three Peaks, a 26 miler, tuesday I was on the Kinder Scout and today I've walked from Edale to home...about 23 miles. Feet up time tomorrow I think.

Sung to the tune of "The Laughing Policman"... "There was a laughing Policeman, His name was PC Jim, He wondered through the scoreboard, to get his head kicked in, He came across a skinhead, and much to his surprise, that dirty rotten skinhead hit him right between the eyes". Best sung when standing in the scoreboard paddock, about early to late seventies, as a copper waded in, then watch the helmet go flying....Happy days. :black eye:

The man could write. He was my inspiration in everything rural.

Oh yes Byron. The hedgie's probably the thickest of the birds to allow a Cuckoo to lay in its nest...let's face it, a blue egg of the hedgy and a mottled, bigger Cuckoo egg...not much difference eh? The bird has in fact been recorded watching the Cuckoo doing the deed! Starting to fight back now though is the hedgy, hence the blue egg now being laid in europe by some Cuckoos.
