Thank God we still have a sense of humour.

Reform got more votes than the Lib Dems yet only get 4 seats compared to LD 68 - how can this be in a democratic society?

I think they will take eggs and chicks but are more opportunist than Crows that deliberately hunt them. We used to control numbers by shooting branchers but I lost the desire to do so many years ago. These days I tend to leave them alone unless they are causing a problem on drillings etc so maybe the answer varies from farm to farm depending upon crops etc.

My Dog walker friend used to walk a Whippet every day till ,sadly,cancer took the poor creature. He was such an amazing Dog, gentle as a Lamb but he would join in with all the activities that other Dogs are better known for - he would retrieve a ball or search long grass for a hidden treat. If you are lucky enough to find a similar Dog you will have something that will bring you nothing but pleasure.

As Mice says - don't attempt to clean Windows in the sun or just a hot day. When you do - get the right equipment, a decent mop, scraper and microfibre cloths along with a bottle of Ungers Liquid - you will be amazed how quick you can do a Window.

Outstanding!! What an absolutely amazing thing to do, publish pics and your story on every media site you can think of.

I'm afraid I'm a lazy baker, I use a bread maker so I doubt this would be viable.

That's interesting, what recipe did you use and did you need a yeast/bread improver?

OMG - I wasn't going to mention that, clearly recall unscrewing the Salt lid to get the lad at the top of the table but then the Headmaster moved him and took his place. Salt went all over his dinner but he just carried on as nothing had happened, did drink a lot of water though. 56 years ago 🤥.

Had one of these more years than I care to recall, sooooo much fun, good luck with the sale.

Without wishing to offend - if I was served those sausages in a cafe/restaurant I would send them back.

The Airgun Centre only offer the lifetime warranty to the original purchaser?

Shady stuff? You'll be telling me next that all senior officers get promoted weeks before they retire 😡.

Yes, but in 15 years I've never managed it.

I highly recommend RWS HVHP - well worth searching for, never found another round that comes close.

Exactly this. The Cow was not out hunting people was it?, it was scared and totally bewildered - there was absolutely no need to ram the creature. Total over reaction by some gung- ho copper.

Not a fan of Cauli cheese either, get shot and add Onion gravy and a decent mustard along with fried Potatoes (or even mini roasts) and I'm on.

Bangers, Macaroni Cheese and Apple sauce?

Must admit that I like mine almost burnt 😬.

10/10 .

Yep, come across many people with "Working Spaniels" often without a hair out of place and wearing a neckerchief and a harness displaying K9 Security 😡.

More and more, it seems, around here middle aged women, once happy to be Dog walkers or to give basic training, are advertising their classes as "Gundog Training". Looking at some of the pictures on Faceache the whole affair looks laughable ie French Bulldog chewing a soft toy or some mongrel following it's owner around a field because they have a treat in their hand. Daft dog owners are attracted like moths to a flame and I often meet people with dogs completely out of control who assure me that their dog is being gundog trained. Am I just being a cynical old *** here because I'm on the edge of posting some narky comments?.

So sorry to hear this.I think you already know the answer regarding getting another but maybe spend a little time thinking about a dog more suitable for your needs.There are thousands of good dogs out there that need homes through no fault of their own so obviously being a Dog lover can you feel comfortable denying one such a home? Go take a look with an open mind and one will find you.Good luck.

Jersey Royals seem flavourless nowadays, something to do with not being allowed to harvest Seaweed for fertiliser anymore?

I always thought you needed to break Peppercorns to release their flavour? Everyday is a school day. Maybe a sprig of Parsley on the Spuds when you take pictures for your eagerly awaited book / monthly recipe? Really look forward to your cooking posts BTW.
