Absent round my house . More Blue,LT ,Great Tits , robins aplenty but not seen a single thrush yet . More house sparrows though which makes me happy . Blackbirds abundant . Wonder if they've pushed the thrushes out round here .

I had a worsening tinnitus in right ear and almost total hearing loss . Progressive hearing loss to point where I am needing a hearing aid . Done everything wrong , Glastonbury , diving accident with ears , shooting . Can't emphasize need to protect hearing enough . Life changing debility . Got it 24 /7 . Full time . I agree . Hush power shotguns are excellent . Used them alot . Sadly I'm at a point where I don't want any kind of percussive noise as if causes pain and unpleasantness . You have to adapt however .

Thanks folks . Deafness, death other and family matters stuffed things up in recent years . More fishing , PCP , mole trapping the future for me I hope . Going to be asking lots of stupid questions .

Thanks gents . Means alot .

Only seems polite to reappear in this section . Been in the wilderness a few years . Stuff happens . Not fallen out or anything silly . Hope pw has the friendliness and decency I recall from my previous years on the forum . Going to catch up on stuff hopefully .

Heads up if you're after a good light . Flashaholics sale has some seriously good 18650 flashlights at roughly half price . Includes the Nitecore M25 hunting kit . Admittedly 1st generation lights but classy tools . Best wishes to all . Been away for a long while sadly . Hope not mind post in this section , sorry if wrong .

Bought a used Rolex gmt 1 . No box . £1150 in 1995 from reputable dealer . Sold to Watchfinder in 2012 for £2700 .

This is the big fat elephant in the room . Polar opposites , though we did try . Also put our collective big foot in it . Iraq , Libya to name two . Huge foreign policy mistakes . Iran now the superpower and Russians well in there pushing them out to Europe . Well done the West .

Car bomb at Glastonbury next but why make it easy for them ? In Ireland fishing , we are getting slated by every two bit radio presenter my radio tunes itself into because we Left . Not enough evidence from Europe of late for them yet obviously . Free movement is the 1st thing to go in France after they've been hit . Why accept it for our country ?

Destabilised the Middle East by toppling Saddam and Gadaffi . Iran become the local superpower facing off the West . Russia get a foothold backing Iran . Isis Isil fill the void now we killed Saddam . The refugees plus many choice fighters flood into Europe . Where has it gone right ? We have idiots running our country . We trust them to run Brexit talks ?

England put England to shame . They can't be bothered doing it for their country .We don't much care about them either .

Sober up and apologise . Dumb comments best left off the forum .

Don't we know it ? I wish we could just not compete for a few years and let them focus on passing the ball and not completely choking when a goal down . Few years out just to spare us this stupid half hearted millionaire fiasco . No more please. let's watch cricket and rugby , stuff we are good at .

Glen Hoddles side was the last one I thought had any chance at all . The papers got rid of him sadly . Thank you Iceland ! I will never get back that 90 wasted minutes of my life so glad I can be spared watching that shower of manure again . Even our hooligans are 3rd rate . The real sportsmen are doing just fine , thanks to the cricket and RU teams . They really do try to improve . Would love Iceland to win .
