I don't know. Apparently I've helped you two find gainful employment in a honest trade and you're still bloody moaning. And I never got nominated for an Oscar for directing 'Putanges - The Movie'. It did send earthy into a meltdown though. Banging on for years about how shit Putanges were without ever seeing one, let alone using them. ? Then, when he actually bought two (big spender ? ) he tried to blag the BIL out of the payment. Claiming they were faulty, but refusing to send them back for a refund or exchange.

I didn't know that. I have always done better during the mid-moon periods when the weather is usually more settled. Today, no frost and overnight temps are closer to daytime. On frosty mornings I don't fish until after lunch, through till the temp drops in the evening.

I'm not surprised anglers were srruggling. It has been a period of high pressure with clear skies and cold night temps. I try and avoid new moon and full moon periods if planning fishing trips.

I know where there is a pest control business for sale. Loads of good river fishing nearby. It's like North Yorkshire without the tourists, 'appen. ?

Mawhinnie is best dealt with by putting on the ignore list. He has nothing constructive to say. Right click over his user name and select the block user option.

I had moved to France before I used Putanges. There was someone on here, possibly Socks who was using them before me and a few people got interested. I was going over to visit friends so offered to bring some Putanges over for anybody who wanted them and post them when I was in the UK to save costs. I ended up taking orders for over 700 traps, all sold at cost. When I got back others contacted me for more so I put tsome up for sale. They cost double the first batch for two reasons. First the extra postage. Secondly, I couldn't keep buying traps, sorting them, packing them, posting them an

Yep. The council had just finished renovating a huge block of flats so the Bliar / Meddlesome regime told the council to make some available for Somali refugees. Next thing there is smoke puthering out of several open windows. Our new tennants had lit their camp fires on the carpet inside the flats.
-
There is no such thing as an original Putange. The original traps were made over 200 years ago and have long since rusted away. Since then they have been copied by many people, some good, mostly bad. Buy traps that people recommend as there is a lot of rubbish on the market.

I went down to my local small river yesterday afternoon to fish for perch and zander using some deadbaits I got from there last week. After about an hour the crays found them and pestered me to death so I moved upstream about 100 metres. That involved carrying three rods, landing net, rod rests, bag, etc along a very narrow path that is lined with brambles and low overhanging trees. At one point I had to scramble under a fallen tree and then jump a stream whilst still laden with tackle. I had been there no more than ten minutes when I noticed three sets of bubbles coming up right where I

Ironically you might find that this MP was killed because he stood up for what you are saying.

The key for this is in the law. The government cannot send back anybody because they would be hauled up before the courts by shyster lawyers acting for their clients human rights. And the courts are notoriously leniant to the sob stories of why the refugees need to be in the UK. Many of the illegals burn their paperwork and claim to be juveniles or from war torn countries. Without proof of what nstionality they are they cannot be deported to that country. After Brexit those refugees who claimed asylum in other EU countries were unable to move to the UK under freedom of movement. Bef

It doesn't seem to be the bulls. Each spring there is a cattle fair in a nearby town and there are dozens of docile bulls tied up in a marquee. Public wander around them with no problem and I've seen farmers walking bulls down the road. Its the cows with calves that are the danger.
-
The government seem to be doing everything they can within the law to prevent this. So your implication that the government ministers and particularly this minister are accepting of immigration is false. Given that the peak of Somali immigrants came when his party were not in power and he supported Brexit, which has closed off another way they can come to the UK, your comments are not only wide of the mark, but disrespectful to him.
-
But, there's the rub. Far more Somalis have arrived in the UK from EU countries where they have been given asylum and therefore were entitled to move freely across the EU pre-Brexit, than have gained refugee status under the recent Tory governments who have put a stop to that practice.
-
If you look back at the Somali immigration figures you will see that it was at its peak during the Bliar / Brown Premierships. Since the Conservatives came to power the Somali immigration is less than 5% of the Bliar years. But, don't let facts get in the way of prejudices, eh?

It is all Limousins out here. They are evil b'stards, even the farmers won't go near them. Taste lovely though. They tend to rear them on grass wherever possible with hay or maize silage supplements in warmer weather then milled cereals through the winter. Over the last few years there has been a big shift to growing grass for hay and silage rather than seed crops. Historically grass did not grow between May through to October due to the hot, dry weather. Now they are getting grass yields 9 months of the year and the cattle are grazing 9 months too.

For the last 15 years police forces have insisted that all recruits have a policing qualification and have increased the quotas of all sorts of groups including female officers up to 50%, took on all sorts of ethnic officers to fulfill their self-imposed quotas, dropped the age and size criteria and ard now taking on disabled people. One thing hasn't changed; the requirement for all new officers to do at least two years on the front line. That means the response teams are carrying officers who ae not able to handle themselves on the streets and are short staffed because many of the young femal

What I believe in is that everyone has the right to protest. But not the right to endanger life or act outside the law of the land. Demonstration should be reasonable, lawful and proportionate. If you want to see the result of democracy changing things just look at the lead up to Brexit and the aftermath. From Farage's democratic pressure on the government that caused the vote to be given to the public outrage at the attempts to overturn that democratic process. Brexit proves that democracy is not dead.

Of course the time scale is relevant. Different times, different governments, different situation. Cressida Dick has no political mandate. And the sound of booing was edited out. You have just cherry picked to suit your anti-black bias.
-
Those incidents are 20 years apart. The hunting ban was in the Liebour manifesto so Joe Public had already had their say in the general election. Cressida Dick is not a politician. The impression that everybody was clapping is down to the papers you read. The booing at football matches during the kneeling gave a different view. That is education. Yours is a closdd minded view.

The German newspaper Der Spiegel have been working undercover in Greece and Croatia exposing secret new tactics that they allege are being directed by the Greek and Croation govrrnments with EU Comission approval. Special Forces officers from both countries are working in plain clothes to stem the flow of refuges. They call it Pushing Back and some informants are saying that all the orders are being passed verbally, no audit traiil, dirsctly from govrnment ministers. In Croatia, on the border with Bosnia small groups of armed officers are beating up migrants, taming their money and phones

If the people at the top of the ladder were prosecuted personally rather than a fine on the business then that would make them a lot more careful about covering anything up or turnjng a blind eye. The Catholic church is worth billions. Being fine a few million is nothjng to them. But start putting bishops and the like up before a jury with the chancd of going to prison and they'll soon clear up their act.
-
I agree with your points. The current trend seems to be to fine large organisations rather than prosecute the perpretrators. Same with the public utility companies. If fines are levied the consumer ultimately pays the fine in increased charges to cover the fine. Why not haul the board of directors through the court? That would have a greater deterrent than meaningless fines. Simply levying large fines on organisation is pure greed and does nothing to solve tbe problem.

Any chance of tagging on? I've got my own bait....

There was a paramedic on an emergency call who couldn't get them to agree to let him through. There was a lady trying to follow an ambulance taking her elderly mother to hospital who couldn't get them to let her through. The 'leaders' of this group openly stated that they would not allow emergency vehicles through. You kept saying that "It probably wouldn't happen." It already had happened to someone else. And then you have the brass neck to suggest that I have finally got it ? What planet are you on?
