The ban put a stop to anything bieng posted , pics etc. people just go about business with out splashing it all over. They way the police are carrying on in this country you dare say or mention anything these days. No one’s forced to come on here .

To be fair I was just curious. I religiously open the forum first thing in the morning then again at teatime. I look out, within my favourite topics, members who have something nice to say. When I first joined I was making and selling ferret boxes and getting involved with a lot of people not only in this country. I knew a heck of a lot of people in the ferreting and both game shooting and stalking who were on here regularly. Indeed many have been to my house. It just seems that the tide has turned. I take DC’s comments as he is and has been for a long time an advocate of THL. What does one have to do to rekindle country life as we knew it? It’s ok saying stick together but do we really believe it can happen? Incidentally I am of an age when I can no longer participate in country pursuits which I miss immensely but still like to read about them. If the Mods think that members don’t have enough input and would consider revoking membership to the forum then I would be very sad. Jok.

I wouldn’t read too much into anything, if lads feel like saying something they will.

There is still enough interesting conversation about a wide variety of subjects to keep a person entertained.

You will piss people off sometimes and sometimes they will piss you off…..it’s no big deal.

And, let not forget that as much as you can pick faults in all of it, a group of lads from this site have raised tens of thousands for charity over the years……if not for this site then that wouldn’t have happened. 
 

Hunting as we did is finished, talking about it openly is certainly finished but there is still plenty to talk about and plenty you can do.

They are a really nice bunch of Lads that do the comp and I consider them my friends now since I first met them all. 

Theres still Ferreting but I fear thats slowly dying through lack of rabbits in some places and very few youngsters taking it up.

Fishing is still strong I feel.

Cheers Arry

I always wanted to go to the fishing comp , but thought it a bit wierd meeting strangers and saying what your user name is, just seem not right lol. But I know it done well for charity which is a great achievement. Only person I met a few times was magwitch the ferreting man and he was sound.

I'll take that as a compliment FD thank you. You yourself had a really good year in the garden and I was some impressed with the amount of veg you severed up with your meals.
