Also, using a ladder stay/stand off, will help 😉
Definitely get one of these, my old fella never used one so I hadn't seen them, but I've got a three section and a stand off, makes life so much easier.

Let’s not let emotion get in the way of the facts, the police arrived after members of the public had subdued the illegitimate SOB, if he had a viable suicide device, he would have already detonated it before plod arrived! As the main object of these terrorists is to kill as many “Kafir” as possible! The police were armed, they had guns, the assailant didn’t! At that stage have a weapon (members of the public had taken the knife from him) he was unarmed! The police were, in this instance, in little or no danger! It is the unarmed members of the public who tackled this armed murderer, that deserve our praises......I would not criticise the police for shooting this guy, they had to make a split second decision.....and did!....now the unarmed copper who died in the last London terrorist attack when tackling an armed terrorist with a knife, deserves our utmost respect for his courage...........I don’t know if I would have done it?
However, the police are not above criticism, especially regarding the appalling delays in gun certificate administration.I hope spurs 14 wouldn’t want to punch me in the face for expressing this opinion? 🤕
On a related matter, did anyone see the singularly unimpressive statement from the Met Commissioner (Cressida Richard) a politician trying to look like a copper!
What are you on about? I'm sure the news said two knives, one duck taped to his hand!! What's to say he had a vest but wanted more people nearby for maximum damage?? I really hope the police have been told if in doubt shoot, why take the risk. He could easily have had more knives, only takes a slash and another life is lost.
Watching the news last night I was thinking put him in the river!
I hope the police officer gets all the support he needs for doing his job.

Out Thursday, saw 2, both at about 75 yards. both cleared off at high speed without looking back straight into dense cover.
Not able to use anything other than Air during the season so just stepping back a bit and waiting for new crop of youngsters and season end. Not close enough to trap, that would be the keepers but have some aniseed essence to try next week.
My total for November..... Zero.
Sounds to me like someone else has been shooting at them?

Doomed were doomed Mr Mannering. We have been stripped of heavy industry because our labour is too expensive. The future is the knowledge economy, brain not brawn. The thing such an economy needs the most is connections. Cutting us off from the EU is kicking the country in the bits 🙂
We will be OK because someone somewhere has a plan. If our labour rates come down enough we can go back to making nuts and bolts compete head on with the Chinese.
Cant agree with this, there was a new series started on Sunday, Guy Martin in Japan, one of the most successful countries in the world. He was saying they've done so well because of the one man bands, small machine shops making bits that the big companies needed, but the country is in trouble because the youth want cyber jobs, not trades where you get dirty or there are dangers.
What your spelling out is this country making nothing, relying on others, I don't think so, because then they can charge what they like while our country grinds to a halt.

@Walker570 guessing your still trapping Nev? Someone mentioned using pieces of game holding blocks in their traps, having great results with it.

Finding the same. Very scarce and very scared. Will be an abysmal total this month again.
I was out Sunday, only saw 2 in the woods, total opposite to what your seeing, one just sat doing its thing at the top of a Scots pine, 30 mins without a clear shot before it went on it's way, didn't seem to care about me at all?

Corbyn was there at the interview to stand up and be counted. Sturgeon was there at the interview to stand up and be counted.
Where is Boris? Duping the gullible.
But they both came out of the interview worse than they went in?? So why would an intelligent person do it?
He probably still will, but why rush in.

s Boris still running scared of an interview with Andrew Neil? Seems odd to think he has less balls than Sturgeon and Corbyn
Which way ends up worse, don't give an interview and look bad, or give the interview and look bad?
I'm still amazed that Corbyn did it after Sturgeon's car crash

A billion seconds is around 11,500 days or 31.5 years. 2 Billion trees is planting a tree every second for 63 years.
That's a lot of trees, unfortunately it won't happen, it's just numbers trying to look good.

Don't these people know that some of the best shooting days in Norfolk are taking place in then next ten days ?
Maybe he's using his stupid brother as a decoy to get some shooting in?

This popped up this week, seems the right place for it.

Kept repeating the same phrases - which had little or nothing to do with the question he had been asked. He appears to be as thick as Diane Abbott or getting old very quickly.
Totally and utterly out of his depth.
I'm not sure any politician ever answers the question they are asked.

If Johnson has any sense he'll stay well clear, so tomorrow night 🤣🤣

Hope it's as good as Nicola sturgeons interview with him.

Competition in the workplace is part of the capitalist system assuming standards are maintained. As we move to Brexit and opt to remove barriers to market entry we effectively increase competition.The migration of EU workers to locations of high demand helps to balance out the labour shortages.
Imagine a situation where the UK did not have these workers. Do you think wages would increase or do you think the public with a finite amount of cash will just buy less of the service?
I don't know what business you are in but if you have a trade there is a desperate skills shortage for any trade skills in the South. I never understood why so many appear reluctant to move with work.
From the bottom up, no one in a trade up north is going to move to the south, the same size house is going to be between 50% and a 100% more so any slight increase in wages is irrelevant.
I have moved with work, I took a relocation to Scotland years ago after redundancy then moved back, then contracted to earn more rather than just doing the same thing.
I don't know what the UK would do without the foreign workers, they work dammed hard and a lot of people in this country are happy to sit at home taking hand outs, but they also work for less.
I went for an interview once, lots of signs in foreign which turned out to be Polish, small sub con company, wage was probably £3-4 an hour less than I was expecting, because there were 5 or 6 Polish lads working there.

I think I know why, Eastern European workers can do my job for less. They send their money home. I live here, and have to pay my due taxes.I can not work for what they get paid. I live in the UK. and pay UK tax.
Your silence is your demise.
Add to that foreign workers will and do house share living in conditions a family man couldn't, so can earn less, doing more hours, every week.
1 hour ago, oowee said:What has the EU got to do with anything you have said.If your wage slips have not gone up for 30 + years you need to ask yourself why.
This is the point I was making earlier people disgruntled with the world that they live in looking for a bogey man to blame.
A company I worked for once described the majority of the work force as " two 4 one's " this was only early 2000, they could get two of them, foreign workers for what I cost, and they pretty much did as they were told, always.
And I know what JS means with regards wages, I cant go back as far but wages haven't gone up as house prices have, everyone thinks great my house is worth loads more, but I'm sure this only really benefits the banks in the long run.

The title to your post should be, 'How to batter a Sturgeon'.

Hope the link works, I'm not on Twitter but this is brilliant, and the comments are bang on Nicola Sturgeon is normally allowed to have her say, not sure I've seen this happen before.
And if half of what Andrew says is true it sounds like Scotland is already in serious trouble, so why vote for independence??
Maybe they're hoping if they can stay in Europe then they'll get bailed out?

Your wasting your time, Henry seems to think that everyone deserves a second chance. The convicted murderer didn't take down the nutter alone did he? And your absolutely right Newbie if they were still in prison they wouldn't have been on the bridge.
I still cant understand our judicial system, out without seeing a parole board? You get convicted for terrorism then you don't see freedom again it should be simple.
