Wolfie. Looking again they are a fashion accessory rather than a work boot ffs. Jok

Hello Wolfie. I just have to respond to your post. Us brits don’t like throwing things away. WELL. In 1986 a friend and I bought a pair each of the first imported Danner military boots. I still have mine although the linings are a bit messed up. Still a hell of a boot though. Jok.
-
Done. Bit of mixed lengths but should do you well. Jok.
-
Ok will do. They’ll be done in the morning. Perhaps you could pm me regarding postage etc. Jok.
-
Ok. Each length is45 inches. You require 10 pieces so obviously 5 gate nets. You tell me how you want them cutting please. Jok.
-
Ok I’ll have a measure and let you know. I will say that I only have 3 lengths so might not make 10 lengths. Will let you know shortly. Excuse the pun. Jok
-
That didn’t really answer the question. Jok.
-
What length would you need? I have 3 lengths, stainless, 1 metre x , I think, 5/6 mom. You would be welcome to them. I can cut them to length for easier packaging. Jok.

Makes me wonder? Do the Mississippi guys jelly their eels ? When we caught bucket loads on the Boston banks they were all jellied by the next day. Jok.

Drain rods. Jok

I’d go a boat yard to seek advice. Whatever they use (and would probably supply you with) will be perfect for an old chassis. Jok.

Scapa Flow springs to mind. The scuppering of the German fleet. Good diving up there. Jok.

The Isle of Barra. My nephew bought a place there and spent a fair bit getting it ready. Sadly my brother passed and didn’t manage to get there so I have been asked to take his place. June/July I reckon. Jok.

Oh heck. Thought we could get some mileage on this. Jok.

This could start a new thread. I’m thinking broccoli. Jok.

Xc90 v discovery which one is better for reliability?

Know what. I have the Honda CRV 2 litre and it is a lovely thing. Comfy, all the extras, quick if you want it to be and my dog loves it. Wifey bought me a boot liner which, with the boot cage, keeps everything nice and tidy. Also it pulls a trailer with ease and is good on fuel. When you first buy one there is an option of 4 wheel drive, which, I found out , had been taken out on my car. Jok. -
I was forced/coerced by my father to help with drystone ‘dyking’ as it’s called in Scotland. Ordinarily, as with yourself, it was mostly stock damage repair. However we did do some quite long stretches and I can’t help but have look when up there to see if it is all still standing. To date that is the case. I was looking at your pics and notice you haven’t used any stretchers, stepping stones which protrude each side of the dyke normally used by shepherds and stockmen. On to Neil.(BakerBoy)When you retire the biggest enemies are the weight and the cold. Nice topic. Jok.

PIANOMAN'S NEW EYESIGHT. BETTER THAN EVER BEFORE.

You’ve inspired me to go private. Although I one cataract done, the other eye is quite simply smoke. The biggest worry I have now is driving as have sold or passed on all my guns and tackle. Congrats and it sounds like you have some catching up to do. Enjoy. Jok. -
I reckon most will work on a day rate pal. Jok.

The Common riding in Galashiels is possibly the most famous. We farmed on Threepwood which was a fantastic Hunt meet. Melrose hosted a meet which took place over the Tweed. All in all the hunting fraternity had, and probably still has, a a heck of a following in the Borders.

Reading this thread makes me smile. Just a short way out, on the beach at Mablethorpe are the remains of an ancient forest. Goodness knows how old. Jok.

Dido. I,ve said it many times, in different context, on here. Melrose is the place to go in the Scottish Borders. I was born there and schooled there never mind playing rugby on the famous Greenyards. You have Melrose Abbey, the monks gardens which my grandfather tended for many years. Incidentally , he was the last person to ring The Abbey bell. The finest of salmon runs coming up from Kelso which I know you will like. Quality accommodation with personal friends of mine. All in all, THE place to start your adventures in Edinburgh. I could without doubt, take you on a fantastic adventure in th

Possibly the most renowned junction anywhere. Also the most revered when it comes to salmon fishing. The Crosskeys is highly recommended. However, a few miles upriver and you are in Melrose. Beautiful and possibly the loveliest town in the Borders. My salmon days were not exactly legal. Jimmy Clinkscale, RIP, taught me a number of things including the use of a tennis net and a white tray in the water with me somewhere near with a light and a cleek. Happy days. Jok.
