  1. You forgot pet food 😊 they could raise millions
  2. No mention of land used for forestry is that still exempt Or does that still count as farm land just curious
  3. However the clay ground may want there club coach/safety officer to accompany the non license holder could be ground policy or insurance purposes expect to have a little paperwork to do
  4. I’ve got one that hates fireworks he’s also not very good with thunderstorms however on a shoot day totally different works picking up and beating stands on peg steady and keen to work so don’t be disheartened and please remember when you take pup to the clay ground next if you’re anxious pup will be so go expecting it to be normal just a walk in the park
  5. Just use a drill bit then if you need a punch you will know what size
  6. Had bigger but not on 10lb line we get 30lb tope and smoothhounds to 15lb off the shore here I’m sure they were about back in the day but we never had the gear to cast far enough out to catch them or never tried as there not really the best eating 😂😂 a little one on a pond rod and light gear
  7. Dam spell check 😂😂 Just checking your paying attention 😂😂 back in the day when I was a serious boat angler I tried to get the British shark record on 10lb line never succeeded bet I managed a fair few porbeagles into the 100lb+ bracket there’s some great fish caught on light line nowadays especially with the carbon rods and high capacity reels available wish I had this stuff back then
  8. There’s been some good replies here not familiar with the tide run of the welsh coast but here goes the thicker the line the more tidal drag and the heavier the lead required to hold it bottom the thicker the line the less capacity on your reel so with the rod reel combination 30lb line max you should be able to fish with 6 to 8 oz weight comfortably unless the water is very deep or a lot of tide run (big springs) as for line type stick with mono it’s more forgiving for a novice braid is very good but can be challenging If in doubt ask the skipper personally don’t think you should use any mainline that you can’t break out if you get hung in a snag 100lb line almost impossible remember you can catch a big fish on a small hook you rarely catch a small one on a big hook so 2o or 3o hooks to start they’ll cope with skate bass also whiting pout and dogfish have a good trip All the best of

    A very difficult task for you to accomplish is there a possibility of a live in caregiver possibly a family member or even you and your wife or family member who may have enough room to accommodate her this may break the garden habit and semi prepare her for a care home very difficult time for you hopefully you can get a solution all the best of
  10. Would you rather the money paid for wildfowling leases go to sir kier or the crown estates
  11. Definitely the way forward far better use of time hopefully it works out for the best and they can get the waiting time down to a sensible level
  12. Would you like one? straps on the buckle are a tad worn on both but reparable
  13. There was some good advice on that thread 😂😂😂
  14. There already raiding them by making them part(all) of your tax allowance As soon as you’re state pension kicks in any other income from savings other pensions is taxed at the full rate unless they alter the tax threshold this will continue
  15. Are they eating food in the main drive/cover crops ? possibly a different time of day maybe work better hard to say without seeing the layout of the land/shoot
