  1. Got a similar issue here but with Goldfinches! It’s great.
  2. Swimming with my son off Pakefield in the summer when a big beggar popped up two foot from us in some rough water!!! Nearly ran across the water to get out!! They can get grumpy. https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/uk-news/surfers-leg-snapped-two-seal-26398362.amp https://www.somersetlive.co.uk/news/local-news/seal-attack-south-west-coast-8143735.amp
  3. I can obviously see that! But how do they profit from the scam?
  4. Someone please tell me what the scam is??
  5. Only a few years back they had them at the Stow *** Quy, Country Show! A great crowd puller and they even let children have a go.

    Coronation.

    Good, off to the Tower with them!!
  7. I tend to get a hangover with it!
  8. I love a proper kipper but hate the flipping bones!! Takes me ages to eat one. My wife on the other hand just munches on through and calls me a sissy. 🤣
  9. Some interesting stats. Tax raised by alcohol = £12.6 billion Tax raised by tobacco = £10.7 billion Both OBR 22-23 estimates. Far fewer smokers than drinkers. Cost to NHS PA due to obesity £6.5 billion due to rise to £9.7 billion by 2050! Maybe we should ban chips and cheese?
  10. Watched three last night and lived every minute! Could have binged the lot but I decided to have some to look forward to. Funny and informative. Love the yokel!
  11. Whilst I don’t generally agree with your politics (based on assumptions from your posts) I don’t think anyone can argue your last paragraph!
  12. I’ve been contemplating trying these; https://www.best4systems.co.uk/peltor-eep-100-eu-electronic-ear-plug.html?ppc_keyword=&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIw6WP3ODL_AIVxODtCh0vJQiFEAQYASABEgJj_fD_BwE They seem to have good reviews and are sensibly priced. Anyone on here had a go with them?
  13. I must say I was watching with one eye for most of it, waiting for the bang! 😅 Cheers for that.
  14. A Black powder pistol and some bullets! I had a cheeky go for the .357 and a BP rifle but failed.
  15. Cheers looks like I made two!!
  16. How do you know? I can’t see the results yet?
  17. A big element of the business plan for these schemes is to build huge battery storage. These companies will then buy cheap electricity at off peak times and sell it back to the grid for a profit at peak times. A major problem here is fire!!! https://www.bestmag.co.uk/teslas-lithium-ion-megapack-causes-three-day-fire-during-test-australian-300mw-ess/

    chips

    Sunflower oil as it handles higher temperatures! A decent potato (King Edward, Maris Piper) peeled, chopped and washed!!! Then most importantly dried. Half cook them (until they get loose) take them out and set aside (to cool down) if you can wait. Then whack the oil back on until it’s hot, cook them to almost done, shaking them so they move through the oil levels. Remove for 1 minute leaving the oil heating up and pop theM back in until they sound like they are going to snap/crack usually 2/3 minutes!! Sounds a faff but they are great.
