    Walshie; That film was all the rage, a year or two back. I wouldn't know about the F word. But, the N word seemed to get more f**king mileage than All the stupendously Speilbergian quantum leaps in film making that were said to be going into it. I can't really remember what all the hype was about. CGI? They'd practically built a 'Dambuster' plane ~ or three! ~ Shit like that. It was due to be a world class, monumental film. Looks like it all fizzled out though. Last I ever heard of it was a cloud of controversy fuelled dust about What to call Gibson's f**king Dog!!!

    The hell are you on about?! I've 'migrated out'. I've never had a passport and, if I had €2,000, I'd apply for Citizenship tomorrow! 'Want to come back'?!? As I adamantly tell Anyone who so much as Suggests such a f**king ludicrous notion; " Ye couldn't get me back there in a f**king body bag! I'd jump out of That and run away! " Mate of mine here? He went back. Family pressurised him. (F**king emotional blackmail, in my book! 'We're all suffering this. Why the f**k should You get out of it?!') So, he folded and went back. Six F**king Weeks!!! He's coming back here so f**king

    F**king Tell me about it! I was on a rat job, one night. Council bod' and the press were there. (Yeah. This was Some f**king job! ) Anyway, something mad appeared to have been done and I, under considerable pressure, as ye might imagine, did my utmost to be 'Correct' before the live media. " Have the residents of this property got ..... 'Mental Health Issues'?' I gingerly enquired. No good! Eyes were diverted or rolled. Faces were palmed. I'd obviously f**ked up! " Err ..... " Stammers the council mush. " W ... We actually prefer to speak of it as 'Learning Difficulties', tod

    Just get a .17 Hmr, surely? Over here, All air rifles need a Firearms License. Might as well apply for a .223. Still costs the same and is governed the same. But , then, we have no limits of Air Rifles here. Put out what ever they're tuned to. No one's asking. My mate's a case in point though. He likes shooting little stuff. Could have got either. Settled for a .17. Extremely happy with it too. Oh. And He works in a gun shop. So, I guess he had the right advice on tap?

    Ah. Sorry, TC. No. I've just always used the term " Starter " for the whole thing that we need for our strip lights. (I used to breed amphibians, so I had a couple of lights then. Maybe being able to work more and earn more took the sting out of prices, back then?) This is what I need ~ two of. And, those lights are reptile ones. They do a slightly different wave length for birds.

    F**king Ouch!!! Little up date / Finale to this one! No one told me This ....! I finally got it screwed down to my needing Arcadia T8 tubes and Starters. Two of each then. And, it seems, the prime source for this stuff is a bloke in Germany. On ebay. (Obviously, his prices are gonna reflect the market. He'll be little more or less than anyone else) But, The Horror!!! F**king tubes are, about twenty quid a piece. Dozen postage. Let's say £30.00 each. Starter Units though? They come in at about Fifty F***ing Quid a throw!!! :icon_eek: F**k Me!!! Hundred and sixty quid plus!

    Oh, the sentiments are brilliant, mate. But, it's still just one of these inter things that morphs in and out of life. Bits being added and changed as it carries along its nebulous path. Be bloody brilliant to actually See Farage ~ or any other politico ~ stand up and actually utter those words. But, we won't. Sadly.

    I have a Black Lab'. I call him " Nigger ", after war hero Guy Gibson's Dog. Don't like that? Live with it.

    In Eire, under the Wildlife Act 1976 (Approved Traps, Snares and Nets) only traps designed to be 'humane' and cause instant death or irreversible unconsciousness are allowed to be imported, sold or deployed. We're lucky then, in that we don't have to wring our hands and toss and turn through the night, worrying if this, or that time tested trap fits the bill. We have none of this nit picky STAO bollox. Fenn traps are officially sanctioned. So, shit like Sawyer, Imbra and Juby ~ not to mention the Body Grips can be taken as a forgone conclusion. Anyway; I know the law. And I don't d

    Same difference, Jack. Boards are just a modern, convenient form of the old rat tack. C***s game.

    Phone rings ..... " Hello? Is that the pest control? " Yes. It is. " Listen; Can ye get me that stuff the mice stick to? " No, sir. That shit's illegal, in this country now. " Can ye not get me some though? " No, mate. It's been illegal for years now. It's f**king barbaric anyway. These days, we have far better traps. " Traps? " Yes. Mouse traps. In little boxes. Nothing else can get at them. Children can't. Pets can't. Unintended wild creatures can't. They're great! Catch a mouse? Little yellow bar disappears and tells ye ye've got one. I can put ye onto those

    Strange. Why would the wind only effect brambles like that?

    Case in point; I was walking the land with Pat, the other day. I pointed out where a badger had dug a hole into a bank. Said how they're displacing just now. Without so much as the slightest change in his conversational tone, he simply asked me; " Is there nothing You have, that ye could feed them and poison them? " I must say; That caught me a bit on the back foot! I had to think fast and choose my words carefully. Perfectly illustrates a typical cattlemans views though: 'Just Get F**king Rid! '

    F**k me, Jigs. That was hard work! F**k shooting cattle. Done that myself. It was watching the devastation it was causing that poor f**king man! My best mate lives for his cows. If that happened to him? There'd be a reckoning.

    I was talking to a disgustingly experienced bloke, only last night. He said the wild birds are doing sod all, yet. And, I must say, checking twenty of my starling boxes showed me four were active. sixteen had bits of stuff in them. So, the birds are there. They're entering the boxes. They just can't (or won't) get it together to go down yet. He reckons it's the weather. Feels we're in for murder with the mites too. No frost to knock them down.

    Are you turning into Pat Burns, Spadist ....?
  23. Outlaw Pete
    Still get them, mate. Still smack the back of a recalcitrant, screaming childs legs, in public too. It's just that some loony do f**king gooder is Far more likely to emerge from the ether and remonstrate with ye, now.

    So, I've been out, ringing, all afternoon. Got everything done I'd set out to. Just sat here, reading shit on here. Waiting for feeding time. Dogs flaked out around me. All is well. Christ! That sounds uncannily like the last time this sort of thing happened, to be honest! Anyway, the door's open. We're all chilled. Then in mid read / type, what ever, I'm vaguely aware that the mad Pesticle has got up and gone into the kitchen. Not a big issue. She can do that. She's the Pesticle. Then, I'm sort of simultaneously aware of these strange sounds. My mind's still trying to focus
