Nicepix 5,650 Posted August 13, 2020 Report Share Posted August 13, 2020 42C in the sun earlier this week while out mole trapping. The air-con in my newer car / van isn't working properly so it has been hard going doing 200 miles and around 15 visits a day. That is being fixed today. The number of moles trapped in the last few weeks has dropped considerably due to the ground drying up as we haven't had any real rain for four months until yesterday. It started with a torrential downpour for over two hours then has rained non-stop all night and today. The moles are already active going my the new molehills on the dog walk so I'll expect a few more in the traps next time around. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My dad was a ripper and had the blue scars to show for it. Thankfully I didn't have to follow him dahn t'pit. When I first started work at 16 it was in a textile mill and during the three day week period when the strikes caused electricity cuts and petrol rationing. The mill was up on the tops above Cleckuddersfax and I had to get there by moped. 26 miles from home. They couldn't run the boilers for four days at a time and I was working a normal five day week. It was -7C inside the mill at one point. That was the year that Emley Moor TV mast collapsed under the weight of ice on its guide ropes. Kids today don't know that they are born Edited August 13, 2020 by Nicepix Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Arry 18,630 Posted August 13, 2020 Report Share Posted August 13, 2020 Remember working on a building site in 76, we were walking around in 4 inches of dust. You sweat then the dust stuck to you we were caked at home time. It seemed to last so long. Cheers Arry 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
