Not the most photogenic dish I’ve ever produced, but this was pretty special. With a view to getting him self sufficient, we’ve got my 15 year old son taking care of catering for tea one night a week. It wasn’t his turn to cook tonight, but as I was making stew, I thought it was time he learned to make dumplings. When I was a kid, once a week, my mum would put the makings of a stew in the oven with it on timer before she left for work, when I got home from school, it was my job to make the dumplings and add them to the stew so everything was cooked by the time my folks got home from work. At first my mum would leave the dry ingredients measured out in a bowl but it wasn’t long before I could ‘eyeball’ them myself and make a decent dumpling. I showed my boy the eyeball method, and then how it’s important to make sure you gently place them in the stew and also, towards the end, you glaze them with a splash of gravy, just like my mum taught me. I have to say, he did a very good job, and although she died maybe 20 years before he was born, I’m absolutely positive that they’d get his granny’s approval.

How many would perish without these ponds i wonder ? I have built over 30 ponds and certainly dont take more than i "put back" - by providing feed, shelter and predator control. I am not alone in my actions either Irresponsible - un-sportsmanlike people are just that - Think of the wildfowler shooting when it turns very cold - or shooting all day or too many days and disturbing the birds

What is it and what size 🤷🏻‍♂️

When I enquired about a meter I was told from the day they install it I had 12 months to decide if I was saving money or not. If not, within the 12 months they would switch me back to non meter, after 12 months I would be stuck with it. I now pay around £17/month compared to £40 odd. If I sell my house, whoever buys it is stuck with the meter. (Northumbria Water)

Didn’t his ratings go up after the last attempt? Something fishy here 🤔

possible vicinity and property line three clues trump wasn’t even within eyesight let alone in range! lol

👍

It sounds fishy or totally amatuer to me, you couldn't hit a cows **** with a shovel with the barrel resting on a netting fence and if you wanted to take a precision shot at 500 yards an AK47 would be your last weapon of choice.

Well done another 3 tree rats gone

The fishing was poor enough by all accounts. 4 small pike and 2 lost. Very bright conditions but the boys enjoyed it all. The stalking was more successful with a sika stag shot about half an hour before dusk.

^^^^^ This. Too little too late on the numbers alone. The heart ache, alienation and loss of living life is worth even more. Can we even begin to imagine the pain of living through this stuff?

wouldnt surprise me is this turns into a tit-for-tat....and harris or biden get shot at next time,,,,,,,,,,,

That 2nd shot was interesting....your optics picked up the heat from the round......looked almost like a tracer... nice busy video

They said he was between holes. 🤷‍♂️

Jam jars were always a favourite with our gang.

Yes this is technically true. However there’s more to it than that - a range of various improvements. The modern 410 is much more of a ‘hitter’ than it once was. I think that’s part of the reason for its recent popularity.

Looks quite possible that another lunatic wanted to bag himself a trump. https://news.sky.com/story/donald-trump-rushed-to-safety-after-gunshots-heard-near-his-florida-golf-course-13215905

Hello, What about a small Flask, ??

SOLD

The compensation scheme is difficult to assess. OK so if I was done for a discrepancy of £20, 000. They repay me the £20,000 and that's OK? No it's not I bought that business for £165,000 and because I lost the post office I had to sell it for £70,000. Which I didn't get anyway because the mortgage company took all that My loss of earnings these 25 years is £500,000 pounds. I lost my house . That was repossessed. Today it would be worth £500,000 And they think repaying the £20,000 is going to make it alright Dream on

👍

maybe best to ring me on 07903245760 Paul.

Vince - I believe you nailed it. I found them very entertaining most of the time, but there were the cliches and forced humour on occasions. That said, from the dire Chris Evans, to Flintoff, McGuiness etc, the whole series of replacements were awful. Clarkson has been a decent advocate for the farming community and I don't begrudge him opening a pub. You can hardly blame him, although many do, for being too successful.

They should have given up a few years ago when they were at the top of their game. (Always leave them wanting more) Instead they didn't know when they had topped out and were becoming tired and clichéd. Now they are a bit same old same old But they are still a million times better than the t0ssers that tried to replace them. They really are rubbish
