Lidl shaving foam is really good too

And as thick as they come. A nice bloke by all accounts but very dim

He got away with murder. Bang to rights he was guilt. Killed his wife and her lover but American justice and televised trials meant he got off. Biggest example of "Trial by TV" ever. He should have died in jail

Some 40 years ago I used to drive through Ashridge forest in Hertfordshire at 11pm on my way home when I was on shift work. In the winter it was not unusual to find ten or more deer just standing on the road and they only got out of your way reluctantly as you tried to drive through them. Looking at you as if to say "I was here first get lost" In the winter the black road absorbed more heat from the winter sun and the deer could sense this. Now down here in Cornwall we get Muntjac deer in our garden. They dig up all the bulbs in winter (not good) and eat the fallen apples in summer which is great for me as i dont have to pick them up. I like to see them, wouldn't want to harm them. My mate says why don't you shoot them but I prefer to watch them. Even if it means watching them dig up all my dafs

Uk arms sales to Israel are not very large. They are not likely to lose much sleep if we stopped

I don't know the answer to this from personal experience but my friend who runs a big shooting syndicate in the West Country has told me they can't sell their shot pheasants anymore because they don't have some sort of meat licence . The implication being its not worth the expense of getting one Perhaps someone with more experience with these matters can elaborate

This Netting over the pond is the only thing that works in my experience

Copper in cable is high purity but demand for copper generally is falling due to plastic replacing copper in plumbing applications World commodity price for copper this morning was 4.02 dollars US per pound. That works out close to your £7 grand a ton. But the thing about lead is how easily it can be turned into shot. People do it in their garage

The cost of the raw materials is miniscule in the overall cost of the end product. The only reason we are being pushed towards steel shot is because the industry that already makes steel ball bearings can produce steel shot in the quantities required by the cartridge industry. There is no industrial need for copper shot so unless someone wants to start a factory from scratch ( highly unlikely in the present economic climate) there is no source for the cartridge industry to get copper shot. Also although we will stop using lead shot I strongly suspect that most of the countries in Europe will simply ignore the ban. Like they do with most other legislation, and continue using lead shot.

I have wondered about that. It was going to be the obvious replacement but then suddenly it all went quiet and all you heard about was steel

Not only Labour's ghost votes they lost a large number of real live Labour voters too who simply dropped off the electoral register to avoid paying the tax. Basically you were paying hundreds of pounds a year for the right to vote. For many the choice was simple. No vote was not that big a deal. If they did it again they would have to find a better way of locking people in. There lies the problem Oh and by the way my brother in law has a house in Cyprus. His council tax is £220 A YEAR ! His bins get emptied every two days, there is street lighting and the roads are not bad. But, and it's a big but, that's all the council does. All the work that is done by Social services over here is done by the church. No rent free council houses etc

Yeah it was a toss up

I got a phone call yesterday saying I had won a competition blah blah blah. Just hang up

As a former Magistrate I believe that if you 'use' that phone by touching it, whether or not it's in a holder, it is an offence. The law is a blanket ban, it offers no exemptions for where it is or what it is being used for. Hands free means literally that hands free. Using it as a sat nav makes no difference its still a mobile phone. But you always have the right to argue the point in court if you get stopped. But I think they are missing a trick using a lorry. We live near a big junior school and the mums on the school runs are the world's worst for using their mobile phones while driving.

Yes anything that obstructs your forward vision. But like so many things it never seems to get enforced.
