In the past? Haha........don't take no notice about what folk say, get out the house try it mate!!I first went 20 years ago & the same things were all being said then, too commercial, too expensive, shit line up blah blah blah.............but you'll never know if you don't try, it might be a life changer for you haha..... Well said. All this "it's not as good now" is just rubbish. It's as though they are saying " you won't have as good a time as I did". Unless a person has been to every single one how can they say it's not as good?. And don't forget Newcastle brown ale is not as good as i

Folk who spend too much of their lives thinking about what annoys them........

That's great........if I was still in England & flying a gos like I was doing, I would probably have one now, I was starting to seriously look into it before things changed for me...........Atb with her

This has crossed my mind recently......because we will move next year & I'll be looking for a bigger space, so I may give something like this a go.............in the meantime I'll live with the guilt, but I do think the ones I've bought have been better welfare or summit.......it's in french haha...

I do plan to go again sometime.......but it will be with family, as a responsible adult haha......so I guess my brain cells or what's left of them should be safe from harm........:-)

I'm pleased that the authorities are actually taking action. There is a group illegally camped in a public car park in a town near me. If I stayed there longer than my ticket allowed I would be hit with a ticket and £100 fine. Traffic wardens have been instructed not to ticket the travellers so as to 'avoid confrontation'. The lesson from this is, if you have a reputation for illegal violence and intimidating people then the authorities won't apply normal rules to you... I would like to see more HMRC investigations into travellers, with POCA being used to confiscate assets they can't acco

I hate to say this, but farmed rabbit is better......Farmed in most species are more tender.Rabbit is the second most farmed animal in the world after chicken. I never knew that......about most farmed........ I was eating rabbit from the super market the other night, it was so nice......I was thinking maybe I couldn't go back to eating wild, I kinda felt guilty about it.........it's so much easier to cook though ;-)

What are your plans for her, work wise? She looks a cracker by the way....:-)

I never take much notice of who's headlining really.............my experience of the festival was long ago, but there's a lot more to it than main stream acts...........there is a hell of a lot going on! which I think other festivals lack. Something for everyone I think....... But I don't do mud...........that was my last experience of Glastonbury & it was shite, no matter how hard I tried.....
-
seen rage against the machine at Leeds they took the roof off!...v festival is normally decent also I've been to V a couple of times & I think it lacked the festival vibe.............all this camping outside the venue, lights out by midnight or whatever time ruined it for me.....

This is going well........

Did you mean to post that on the 'raid' thread mate? Haha......

The Brits still do music better than anyone else & still holds the best music festival in the world! .....& as far as I know it's still unspoilt by the last labour government, asians & gypsies....:-)))) So who's going? Who's taking a short break from an endless American series to watch it on the box? Or who's been & has some great memories?

I hope they clear that shite up soon, I'm coming through next week............I don't want some cnut trying to climb in my boot!

As above mate..........what are your expectations? What do you want to hunt on what type of land? You mentioned falcons, is flying a falcon actually what really want to do?
-
Yes I'm feeling this one........;-)

If you do decide on a male, do your research! You want to be finding out average hunting weights (NOT aviary weights) of males from the breeders you chose to contact. Hopefully you'll get some honest answers...... I'd be looking for average hunting weights of no lower than 1lb 7oz, preferably heading towards the 1lb 9oz or higher if you're really lucky! To make a decent all round bird for fur & feather......... Of course weights are relative to how YOU handle the birds as well, but that's a rough guide.......& some folk will say ''my little 1lb 5oz male takes rabbits all d

That last pic is a classic mate! ;-)

Females for sure are more popular & are more commonly the choice of novices & experienced austringer's alike.......but in my opinion the male is often sadly overlooked........ I'm not sure about advantages mate, because let's be honest here, the female has the overall advantage in pretty much every department when it comes to hunting, whether it's tackling rabbits, long flights after pheasants or obviously in pursuit of hares...... But I can list some preferences & maybe one advantage for the novice........IMO the advantage would be a better education from the start, in res

I'm liking tuffty's post & I don't even drink the stuff!.....................did make me chuckle....:-)

I do like a drop of Newky Brown.........I normally have a bottle with fish'n'chips on arrival back in England, although Old Speckled Hen is probably my favourite of the main stream ales.......:-) Any of the Adnams stuff is nice & I love all the St Peters brews......... Brewers Gold is a lovely light refreshing pint........especially from a favourite pub of mine in 'constable country'......:-) Anyway......I'm off the beer at mo' :-(...........so that's enough of that kind of talk from me..........

Wake me up when they've won it.......
