    There is a hell of a lot falconer's pissed off with Buzzards now, they've become known for attacking falconry birds, even goshawks & killing said birds. I met a belgian falconer a while back who supported his local buzzard population with food additives.....;-)
  2. We're only touching the beach and then being dragged back by the support boat (14 hours over and 6 hours back!!) It was a belgian joke mate ;-)

    A few months back I stood in my garden with my mate & we watched 2 crows harass a Hare for over an hour. The hare continually chased away these crows, sometimes up to 50+ metres & then always returned to exactly the same spot. We assumed the hare was protecting a leveret? After an hour I couldn't resist any longer & broke the 'naturalist' rule book...haha & I walked up to check things out. The crows went first, then finally the hare got up from the same spot & disappeared over the horizon, leaving just a small scrape in the ground. Was the Hare about to give birt
  4. Good luck mate Have you checked that Belgium will be open on the wkend?
  5. You're very trusting lol I'm far from trusting, are you paranoid? No need to get nasty I hope that's a clever joke? Haha...
  6. It's not over till the fat lass sings time will tellWho can tell though? No one knows what the fcuk it's going to mean yet, or when the man in the street will even notice. If Brexit doesn't look so good it must be sabotage? Or if it looks rosy for all, then they've done their best?I think if we end up with free movement to stay in the single market then we will know lol Yes thats one clue, I'll give you that.....haha

  10. She'll be done by October ;-) Good luck with her!
  11. Amen! Not all PED's are illegal. It's down to what works! If you think that PED's aren't rife in professional sports you're seriously out of the loop! What the British public doesn't know is what makes them the British public! Genuine question. How do you feel about soldiers using beta blockers to counter adrenaline, sharpshooters using them to steady their nerves? How about pilots using amphetamines to pull long hours in the cockpit? The fact that both the axis and allies, in WW2, used methamphetamine as a PED to combat fatigue? If you use caffeine and nicotine, for focus. Alcohol or me
  12. Corbyn is having a car crash interview on radio 4 as we speak! Doesn't know his figures.......surprise suprise...
  13. Did you put that video up to paint him in a bad light? No one likes him there, he knows that but instead of letting them walk all over him he just give it to them all! Good on him I say, I wish he sprayed them all with pepper spray lol Did I put that video up to paint him in a bad light? Hahaha.........Do you really think I give a fcuk? Haha....I put it up on the way out the door because it amused me, it was funny seeing him shove someone out the way & then exaggerate a posture, it was just funny...... Has team trump lost their sense of humour? Haha........anyway I've got a big hotel b

  18. Fair comment as it stands mate, but I will be cladding over those dark sheets with natural finished boards, which will help with some of the heat retention. The entrance door is at the back, which as well as having a solid door, will also have an inner sliding door in fine mesh, so this will create a nice air flow during summer days......beside this, we are in very open spot here, it's windy 300 days a year! Haha..... Regarding the manning, I shall continue the imprinting process from about 20 days old, interaction throughout the day, eventually tied down in various ways.......A swing perch
  19. All the corvids can be dangerous for any hawk mate, but I'm talking about strength & weight. The sparrow hawk is just no match for the average rabbit or cock pheasant. Goshawks can take crows easily if they want, males & females, but it doesn't mean they will. Males can be put off by a good pecking or a mobbing by other crows, when one is caught or they may never be interested like my male wasn't. But there is plenty of good crow hawks out there! All depends on entering, circumstances etc..... There's no 'givens' in this game, as I've found out.....;-)
  20. Debbie was the first women I 'noticed' ;-)
