Just back from interview seems a pretty tidy number got my first trial shift week after next seem like decent lads to work with have the runway two quarry’s and an sssi site to look after can not stay on the base overnight for obvious reason but they are happy to lock me in the quarry overnight so all good

Theres an epidemic of them by you along the k and A from bath to Bradford last time I was out there, only place I ve had to issue a slap in all my years of fishing and boating canals

Tell me about it I’ve had a boat for the last 20 years and like everything else the cost is going through the roof that’s why there’s an epidemic of unlicensed boats lived on by the great unwashed thing is if you have nothing but the boat and keep on moving it’s hard to enforce anything on you they also use travellers rights and swap ownership of boats if ever a court case is won to remove the boat

£250 I think my last one

Can be done much cheaper as I say I’m at the top end of it I took a boat up to Stourbridge last year from here and the marina she went to was about half the price of this one, but good luck to the lad if he buys right he won’t loose on the boat if it’s not for him

I,m right in the middle of the incoming weather bomb and like you I feel it more in my 60 s than I ever did before long johns and thermal socks minimum all winter lol

Inside info mate it’s not an application type thing an old mate is the head pesty and needs a hand a couple days a week so just put it out through mates and I think I the only one that’s stepped up so I’m just waiting for the call

I’ll probably need more than 9” barrels on my shotgun and a ticket as well lol but I,ll cross all those bridges once I get me foot in the door I would imaging what ever needs shooting is all covered by appropriate tickets as it’s an on going thing to stop them getting sucked in the planes it’s all new to me mate but the only things guaranteed to fail are the ones you don’t try so let’s kick the can and see were it goes

Was chatting to someone I know yesterday and he asked me if I was still looking for a little couple of days a week job as I get a bit bored and the beer tokens come in handy so I says yes what’s going on to which he reply’s that a guy we both know is looking for someone two days a week shooting birds on the runway of an raf base on the Cotswolds so I’ve put my name in the hat but think it’s mine there is several lakes on site strictly no fishing but containing carp over 40lb never fished for so if all goes well it will be two 12 hour days shooting and I’ll stay overnight in the van and fish th
