I like the sound of that as well . I wonder if trout could be grown on in a set up like that .
-
That just made me think about one of the farms that I shoot on . All of the cattle drinkers around the fields had goldfish in them.

Depending on how big your pond is , you can get pond heaters . The one I used to use , was like a fish tank heater , only inside a stainless steel tube , and with a polystyrene collar , so that it floated on the surface of the pond , and keeps the water just above freezing . My pond isn't that big ,10' x 10' , so a bigger pond might be much harder to stop freezing.

It's weird, but I quite like the idea of a sky burial .

God that sounds macabre .

You good ol Norfolk boys have a culture all of your own .

I seem to remember one culture that smokes the dead to cure them , and keeps them on show . Again , that would seem insane to most of us , but cultures can be vastly different, and full respect to them if it brings them comfort .
-
That sounds absolutely horrific, but we're very sheltered from death in this country . To those people, it's just the way it is I suppose.

I think it was the same documentary that showed the burning of bodies on the banks of the ganges . Poorer people couldn't always afford enough wood to fully burn the body of a loved one , so half burned bodies were just thrown into the ganges .

That's true. Our lives would seem insane to them . It's hard to believe that human beings could live such different lives , yet still thrive.

It seems freakishly macabre to us , but if they have the belief that God created everything , so everything is OK, it must be a unbelievably stress free way to live your life . I would imagine it could get quite lonely though , as they walk away from family , and everything they previously knew.

I watched a documentary if I remember correctly. It was about the many and varied religions in India. I found it fascinating that they could eat anything , even human flesh or dog faeces, as God created everything , so everything was good . They have no possessions , and can walk around naked , and nobody even gives them a second glance.

Are sadhu the ones that have no possessions ?, and eat food from a human skull ?.

I've just been listening to rainy night in soho . It's a song that I used to sing to my late wife. It made me smile , but also brought a tear to my eye.

The dumb ass has got seven years to wait for his next kebab , so that'll probably be cold as well. He's invented a whole new level of stupid.

He certainly had a wild ride. RIP Shane.

I drive the exact same car . Its been the best all round vehicle I've ever owned by far , until today when I was trying to change the heater motor , now its just a complete and utter xxxx.

He was telling me that you couldn't smoke in the street when you'd finished a meal in a restaurant, so they'd let you have a fag in the kitchen . He walked into a corner shop when he was out there , and running it was one of his Indian mates from uni .

Lins lad went to India for three months a few years ago . The only time he had the trots , was the one time he ate in an English restaurant out there .

My last one is looking to move out . He left once , then came back with a girlfriend in tow . She didn't move in , she just popped in one day and never went home. I can't complain , at least she keeps him out of trouble .

My kids are 28 and 30 , and I still tell them santa brings the presents .
-
I bet you didn't get a cold for the rest of the winter though .
-
Don't worry ol mate , I'll be sending you a freshly washed hamster , dressed in a santa suit , and we'll lubricated with goose fat . That'll take your mind off the Kings speech. Ho ho ho .
-
You best hope she never sees this .

I filled the car in 6 hours and came home . Fortunately , I was just in time to catch your denial sir .
