could just turn calais back into a garrison town again, or is that going too far?

get yourself to the charity shop Bruno and buy an oversized boot, so you can slip it on and off easily.
stood watching a nuthatch and long tailed tits doing their thing this morning and boom! Squirrel pops out of next doors garden, sprints straight across into my other neighbours, couldn't believe my eyes, so there's one about but there a rarity on my patch.

Well I'm not in anyone's good book at the moment - been laid up for 14 days and the Tree Rats are in abundance in the woods again according to the Grounds Manager who sent me a rather short TXT saying that he had spent yesterday morning trying to count the blighters .
O dear, hope your back on your feet soon ( and you were closer ?)
So how come none of the other chaps are covering where you normally shoot then?

well that's not good, still the knifes been blooded.
so blood sweat and tears went into the making of this blade.

So how are the squirrels behaving near you guys then?
not seen a squirrel in my garden now since the first of Jan, spent an hour out in the woods yesterday topping up the feeders which had hardly been touched, just with the binoculars as it was "out of hours" never saw a single squirrel, it was windy and cold but would have expected to see a couple at least.
Still the birds in my garden are having are having a right good time, seeing lots more small birds about which should be good for the RSPB big bird watch this weekend.

When it snows often enough to justify the expense of the infrastructure to keep things functional in an inch of snow things will change. Until then I would prefer my tax goes on expenditure that generates better return.
German style systems require enormous amounts of kit, massively more gritters and staff for them, heated runways, dramatically more deicing kit, and that is just on an infrastructure level. People who care enough here can readily and cheaply buy snow chains or socks but dont want the expenditure suggesting pretty strongly they wont want to pay more tax to cover it either.
yes to all that Wb 23
watched the news showing a lorry or tipper truck sliding down the hill unable to stop, so yes its a bit of a joke, but if the roads aren't maintained to begin with there not going to spend millions for a weeks worth of snow once every few years

Amazes me also. Some of those with impressive collections aren’t exactly in their first flush of youth. I sometimes wonder just what it is they’re saving them for?
A local property owner ( miserly beyond belief ) found a complete MGB GT under a tarpaulin in the back of a hotel garage he’s just bought, some years ago. I told him where he should advertise it and gave it no further thought, only to discover a few years ago that, worried he’d get ripped off, he left it round the back of his house where it rusted away beyond salvage. Prune.
Did you see the one in the states a while back? Similar thing think someone had bought a property which had a large barn with the doors welded shut, turned out it was full of classic cars, made a fortune.

Might be too obvious but have someone else send you an invite for dinner or a party, she will hopefully give you grief for not arranging anything.

caught part of this afternoons escape to the country, in the peak district, showed some guy making knives bespoke, turned out there were three guys making a living from it, didn't realise it was such big business.

Seems weird having to take gun, decoys and Labrador when meeting someone to discuss music and lighting.?
imagine how they feel when your setting up in there garden ??

Is it not just because you can't buy air rifles or pistols? On the bay?
-
yes very thorough with the added twist of a surprise to come once Old Farrier gets his knife. now go shoot some squirrels unless your snowed in?
-
have a knock on some doors, ask neighbours who did there's and how much, guessing everywhere will vary.

just being silly chap, mower questions will be in march or April ?

Stopped watching when .50 cal rounds bounced off a jeep at 20 feet. Its got great scope but not nasty enough to pass for me.
Watch the start of Miami vice, that shows what happens when a range rover gets shot up, messy.
One of the guys at work is a big fan, he's always said its about the characters interacting and the survival side, sounds like that's gone?
I've watched all of FTWD enjoyed that so far, its *** just the right balance, for now.

Such a tease, now about my mower.

My way of blocking the back of a sheath so it wraps around the handle and includes a strap and clip almost stops any chance of the knife falling out. The one in the photo is not as tight a fit as I like still allowed that knife to slop about a bit, but you would have to turn the guy u[pside down and shake violently before any chance that knife would come loose.
So an elephant then ??

Yes sorry I meant the bird and ring, there is a list up asking for different species of birds if found dead, think it's so they can send them for tests fir bird flu etc
Labrador rescue
in Dogs and Dog Training
Posted
Wife showed me something today on her local Facebook about the Labrador rescue centre in Eccleston. Can't get my phone to copy the link for some reason?
think they were saying they had rescued two litters of pups? But it also mentioned them being 11months old from a puppy farm?
Thought I would mention it I realise you don't know what your getting but there could be folk wanting a dog without paying top dollar so to speak and wanting to home a lab.
If someone can get the link up that would obviously help.
