That's a cracking job dave 👍.

That food looks delicious 👍.

A hairy water bottle 😄.

We've got the log burner and open fire , and enough logs for two winters if we're careful. We have a 7 litre kettle that'll live on top of the log burner, so that we have plenty of hot water , and a cast iron cooking pot . We have a solar panel and a very large battery , to charge phones , lights etc , We have two inverters if needed, that would run lins workshop(she has her diesel night heater in there) , we have portable usb rechargeable lights , and a usb rechargeable shower . I have an old fashioned cast iron iron ( shed be chuffed about using that )😄 , we have a Kelly kettle , and several camping cookers , and we have enough stored food to get us through a couple of months if things got really bad. By far the biggest weapon in the armoury , is that we have no fear of a little bit of hardship. We're completely sorted , and are in a position to be able to help family , if help is needed. My main concern at the moment, is that asda have run out of cheap toilet roll , and from tomorrow morning, I will have to use the horrible soft quilted stuff. Edited to add. As most of us on here are pretty outdoorsy, and old enough , and wise enough , to figure out basic survival. I wouldn't imagine that the odd powercut, and hefty gas bill , will bother us too much 👍.

The law of averages says that he had to get something right in the end 😁.

That's some fantastic going . Absolutely top marks sir 👍👍👍.

Cheers for the spotter nath . Had a look through it this afternoon, and the quality is fantastic mate 👌.

Yep , it has no place anywhere , and it's what's turning our country into an island full of wetters . The thought that someone like that can find their way into a responsible position in the military, fills me with dread and sadness.

It was probably because things suddenly got very real , and his bottle went.

That's pretty typical of just about everything in the UK dave . It starts in school, and goes from there.

We've got a large crop of hazelnuts this year Steve, so we'll get some picked for you mate . We couldn't see any acorns again , but we'll have a good mooch about for you 👍.

How did someone like that pass training dave ?. You would like to think that he'd be stopped , before he was in a position to make things very dangerous, for himself, and those around him.

Life doesn't get much better than that 👍.

It wasn't the 70s , it was two weeks ago 😁.

I dip their heads in copper slip. I can neither confirm, nor deny , that I have a royal warrant, and a royal coat of arms on the side of my horse and cart. That is now my final word on the whole sordid affair .🤫

Budum tish 😁

But what about the smell ?.

😄😄😄😄😄 You just had to set him off didn't you 😄😄😄 A gerbil is just a long tailed hamster , that's easier to retrieve 😄.

They were ferrets . Due to , brexit , covid , Ukraine, nhs failures , and a flat tyre on my pushbike , I couldn't get your usual reubenesque hamsters . Things aren't looking so great this month either , but I should be able to get my hands on a few hedgehogs for you .

I'm more of a broker than a breeder . Will you be having your usual order of hamsters 🐹 this month ? 🙂.

A squirrel will do that to a man 😉.

Who was getting banged like anything ?.

Everyone knows that general cluster shot all the zulus at rourkes drift ?, you've been writing to the wrong bloke.

The great British public loved Harry, and when MM came along , everyone loved her as well . The public carried on loving them , right up until they started acting like a pair of xxxxx. Which bit ?.

That's absolutely brilliant mate. Tell him very well done 👍.
