I didn't see anything about it on the ITV early evening news.

If you have a microwave, peel and chop the vegetables put them in a large ish plastic jug with an inch of water in, put cling film over, pierce clingfilm and microwave on high for 15 minutes before putting into the slow cooker. This is what I do anyway.

Please keep posting with your exploits and pictures 🙏 I bet the bed was welcome at 5am 😉

Very well done 👏

Ah I see, thanks for explaining 👍I didn't notice another post on the subject 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

The link has been deleted presumably by moderators.

That's what I mean the marsh and isolation seem to be a tonic in times when you need a lift and in the circumstances you describe it seemed to help albeit for a short period 😉 best wishes for 2024 Hcc

Thing is though, I enjoyed it that much that I am now peed off that there seems to be that many hurdles in front of me trying to prevent me going. You are right though the two hours drive means that you can't get to know the marshes and flight paths as much as you would like. I know there are members on here that are a lot older than me but still get out on the marshes and I doff my hat to them 👍 I am still planning and scheming to get out again at some stage. Its really like an addiction, not because I want to shoot lots of birds but just to soak in the atmosphere.

I have been mulling over your question for some time because I used to love morning flights. I didn't start wildfowling until about 2008-9 ish (in my early 50's) as a late starter. Being 2 hours away from the nearest marsh I'd not really heard about wildfowling on the coast until I got the tinternet and looked on shooting sites and thought I'm going to try that. I enjoyed morning flights on different marshes on the wash, I was never the most productive at harvesting fowl but enjoyed the sights, sounds and smells of the marsh. I used to go out with Big Mat off here and Ayano3 occasionally and have a good laugh. The 1st September trips were memorable. Covid scuppered trips to the marsh and then I was diagnosed with heart disease and a general decline in health has meant that I have not resumed morning flights or any flights on the marsh for that matter. If I'm honest it's the 2 hours drive to the marsh and 2 hours home is not something that helps. If it was only half an hour or so I would be all over the marsh like a rash. I have recently sold my decoys motherline etc to a local lad just starting out. It just seems that anything nowadays is a struggle and 4 hrs driving puts the mockers on it. I think that you have to be a certain type of person to enjoy wildfowling and I certainly miss the sights, sounds and smells of the marsh. Will I ever go again? I'd like to say, never say never. I am still a member so you never know. I still get geese over local fields but it's just not the same 😩

40+ years ago I used to drink copious amounts of whisky and orange, do folks still drink that? I think that it would make me balk nowadays.

🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 I posted on there a few days ago to see if anyone was around 🤔🤔

Do you deliver 😉😉😉👍👍👍

What did you do with yours? My daughter in law plated this up for me 😋 We had Christmas dinner there.

Nana has got them weighed up saying why did they come on a boat when they have a passport 🤔 is it the free hotel, food, benefits etc I don't know what the answer is to stopping them but it just winds most folk up.
