  1. As I see it the furlough scheme is there to protect employees as a asset to the company, the company should have enough foresight to maintain enough operating capital, as banks were eventually made too. Not purchasing planes on credit so monies can be paid out this format only works when times are good, This is again only as I see it I'm furloughed and work in construction my boss still has to pay for plant etc smaller scale just upscale on multimillion industries.
  2. I think a point is being missed, what about how many 100s of millions of PROFIT that has been made say over the last 5yrs by these large outfits, and handed out in dividends etc. Then when it gets tough its someone else's fault how about a bail out. Too me it seems like a oneway street mostly driving in the company's favour, or so they would like.??.just how it looks.
  3. Your a very talented chap, really enjoyed that post.

    Have had results in a paddock using depitox it's a broad leaf herbicide. It must contain a particular element it doesn't like. Dont take this as gospel it's just checked and diminished patches in the paddock.

    Very sad seemed to just be making the best of the cruel hand he had been dealt. Wishing him the best possible outcome.

  7. I would roughly say same as above, without upsetting people get your funds in the bank first as this will decide what you can do. Cover plots still need paying for drilled or not.feed may also increase this harvest.
  8. Ours look a little different, and are not on the quarry list,
  9. Used to have one of the match stick cannons towed behind wheeled tank/heavy gun that fired matches also excellent fun
  10. Holbeach changed this rule so I presume Spalding did the same must now be accompanied for safety reasons..and lease changes
  11. As far as I am aware they are a thing of choice, not a regulation.

    Asbestos !

    Asbestos is asbestos tell someone who is dying from it, Just because it is outside what about all the fibres in the air he is responsible for, wrong management as mentioned before can result in large fine (thousands) or prison sentence. So be as relaxed about it as you like.

    Asbestos !

    As jkd says we have to do a course every 12 months. Check regulations you may be able to hire a asbestos skip get a thick polythene sheets, pack it yourself (if permitted) by law then have skip collected. To take any other place you need certification. Again do not cut or break this stuff is a later life death sentence, there's a reason for all the law surrounding it, it's the perfect material apart from the fact it kills you.... You dont need certification to buy plastic bags
  14. Put a bit of road kill in there or adead rabbit, the placing of the trap is 75% of the success. Imo

    Asbestos !

    I have to remove asbestos as part of my job. Get it tested, rule is if not tested and unsure treat as asbestos, No not bury or break, if you are caught transporting it incorrectly large fine and possible prison. Do your research before touching this is now a top killer still and is not taken lightly especially out in the open.
  16. Saw firstone today just a single one

    Plant ID.

    Is it a type of medler?....not sure of spelling
  18. Start with checking silicone seal could have pin hole if water was constant, possibly always leaked it's just you now let more water through.
  19. If they are slate you can thin or even them a little with a wood chisel, use to do this occasionally in fire place manufacturing.
  20. Remember that you can claim your BASC membership back so in theory you would get one free!!!!

    Lost colleague

    Sorry to hear. I work for a smallish company and we all packed up at different times throughout the last week as we closed sites down, and I sit and wonder if we will all return or if we will return the same people, having lost family to this pandemic. The world will not be the same after this.
  22. If I understand it to be you cannot take a Fac weapon in persuit of game this includes wildfowling so as above with the geese was illegal, as it's as species not situation. So such a weapon is limited.
  23. One in holbeach has been part open for years
  24. If it was essential to shoot pigeons before corona virus for crop protection I see it as still essential, as we should remember they are shot under the general licence not for recreation sport if they are damaging/diminishing (eating seed) a crop. That's my opinion Ask a farmer if he considers it important, as long as you are safe.
  25. It's a wildfowling club not a goose shooting club as you mentioned "goose ally" everything shot on the foreshore is earnt!!
