It's f*****g scandalous! In this day and age with the technology they have, why can't they make it a subscription channel, like Sky do? If you have a TV system that's compatable and you want it...stump up, if not you're 160 odd quid better off. Most of the so called stars are on far too much money. That Jonathan Woss (£18 million over three years I think) and those two queers from Little Britain (more millions) are laughing their bollocks off at the rest of us! I don't give a f**k how "entertaining" somebody is deemed to be...no one is worth THAT much!

Feckin' hell Baldie, that's steep mate but I'd have done the same as you. She's a smart bitch I know that much. I spent a good amount on my fella a few years ago, it never crossed my mind to do owt else. What you need is a good walk out excersising hounds to clear your mind. The lads have been asking after you.

That smillie smoking needs deleting, it isn't PC is it? Bring on Matt Monro I say.

I, Of All People, Should Have Known Better!

Nice photos Ditch Shitter. I've a big hive in my loft attached to the eaves from a few years ago and it was still there last time I looked though not in use. It's a work of art. The badger is responsable for so much damage and it's little wonder that Hedgehogs, Bees and Wasps are fast disappearing from the countryside . There needs to be a cull! :ph34r: :realmad: -
Thurso jack, it might be an idea to let the Post Office know where your new address is, they can then re-direct your mail for a while. There's a fee involved I think though.

Obviously a cub Foxdropper. They come like f**k this time of year. I went out last week for a look about and seen one a good way off. Did a very light squeak and it couldn't come in fast enough...it was nearly in the cab with me. I turned the light off and left it alone. Baldies arriving this week . The week before I saw eight on different spots! Good shooting though, on the run.

I'm looking forward to a bit of flighting myself John. You can't beat the solitude of it. As for the Canadas...I'm at them ALL year long! Shot my first brace of Teal last season and had plenty of them coming in to my ponds. I've been told to get over to Southport to watch the wildfowl coming in around October time. Supposed to be spectacular.

I'd say spend more time with him mate. The heavy hand doesn't always work. Take him out doing whatever he's into...cinema, football, looking round the shops and keep him busy but don't make it look too obvious you're trying! Chat to him like mates do. Let him speak to you, to tell you things. Could be he just needs a little guidance, putting on a straight line again. Don't forget to smile and laugh when he's with you. Good luck.

Don't know if it's true, but I heard he releases maggies from larsens!

Note the obligatory can in the hand. Feckin' hell Fellpony! Tha' looks like Wayne Sleep!

How about "The Tales from Europe"...The singing ringing tree, The Tinder Box etc.

Steady on Ditch Shitter. Kennedy...I was off school and I recall mother sniffling to herself as she cleaned out the hearth, which was splattered with the previous nights tea! Another moment...our kid returning home in the late sixties with George Harrisons "My Sweet Lord" on vinyl.

Wakey waaaaakey! Ditch Shitter, that was Billy Cotton wasn't it? "Sing Something Simple" signalled that it was bath time in our house on a sunday teatime. I hated baths then 'cos my dad bathed me and our kid in the same bath and when he washed my face it was as if he was using a brick instead of a loofa! Feckin' sore, but we glowed afterwards. Sat with our toes "in the fire" afterwards. Always had chilblains when I was a kid. :wacko:

The only time spannability comes into it is in the show ring!

Feckin' hell Dillon, what's he done to deserve that? My mate had one of those and after a trip to the pub one dinner, he managed to squeeze about ten of us in it. When he took a corner at speed, he tipped the fecker over. It was hilarious. Don't come to me in that thing Fellpony!

Yeah, very good feel good tele.

Great post "fellow hunter". Nice looking avatar mate. Any chance of a day out with anyone on here? :ph34r:

. Cragman, your'e missing the point. I sympathise with people in rural areas and young prople starting on the property ladder, but this proposed law affects everyone. My parents, in their 80s have lived in their house all their lives, it was a council house that they saved to buy and it would be the only thing they could leave to their family. But if we don't sell it within 6 months of their deaths the council can just put assylun seekers in it !!! Cheers. Fair point mate. I thought that this law was being aimed specifically at the rural communities for the reasons I stated. How s

It's a bit different when you're talking about 4x4s! The young people in the lakes are having to look at mortgages around 200k+ for their first home, whilst earnings have remained low. It's a rural economy. We get a lot on the TV here about the damage done by these southerners buying up second homes...the young ones are having to move out of the area away from their own villages because some rich southerner wants a cottage in the lakes for a couple of weeks a year. They've now started to do something about it locally...but it's to little to late I fear. Money talks.

Could help locals in places like the lakes where southerners have mopped up all the houses, paying over the odds for houses and cottages and pricing the local young ones out of their OWN area! They turn up for a week in summer, have a walk, buy a loaf then feck off back down south for the rest of the year! :realmad:

I agree with Ditch the Shit. I used to stick my ferts food and other kills in the fridge, but really that won't do even for me! Got myself a shed, kitted it out then picked up a nice little freezer for nowt. It's full of allsorts now...rabbit, moles, the odd rat, duck, fox pads from momentous red letter days with the hounds, babies...the usual stuff. Advertise for a freezer, in any condition. Chances are someone will have one standing doing nowt, unplugged in the back of a shop or warehouse.

Erm, it's either dig or climb a fell?

Only recently I was asked to move a fox off some land, and did all the visits, you know, the recces and this fox was coming through the same spot every evening at about 8.30pm. Mooching about, looking for insects and mice, quite oblivious to me standing about 25 yards away. When I did turn up to sort it, I just let it walk away, right passed me and although I put the gun up to it I couldn't or didn't want to shoot it. The lambs are growing, it presented no threat and it seemed like it would be a waste to dispatch such a lovely beast. I did the same in March this year on another spot, bearing i

Swamper, that fire's still going mate . I walked the Terrier earlier...about 8pm and it was still smoking over the back of the moor. Some fire that mate. I'm working over there saturday morning so I'll have a look in between having a go at the geese.
