Nothing like keeping things in perspective eh mate, surely tar and feather him and burn all his family would be more in keeping with such a heinias crime, as being black

I,ve both been to prison and had to do community work in my lifetime and if I had the choice tomorrow I,d go to prison, community service as it was known in my younger days is a never ending drain on your life, when you only do a few hours a week it takes forever to complete, I don't really think the colour of his skin done him anymore favours than anyone else that could afford a good brief , I expect his solicitor bill was more than a peasant would earn in a year , so not really a massive let off when you weigh it all up,

We are in a fiat monetary system and not a gold backed monetary system which is why governments can just print more money whenever they like, but everytime more money is printed the existing money gets a bit more devalued until we are left with hyper inflation and the money in your bank account is worth nothing, sadly as soon as you enter that system of money the only certainty is that it will collapse, we are fecked just no one has bothered telling us yet, gold and silver will outlast all else it always has

If you have a few quid and want a nice watch, give your local cash converter a look you will be amazed what people will pawn and many of the shops don't seem to have much of a clue either, one of my mates has made a few grand just buying watch,s in cashconverters then taking them to the jewellers about a mile away, his best one cost about £400 and was sold an hour later for £2200 It's about knowing makes, models and brands

Thumbs up to the old land cruiser defo the one, but for proper off road go anywere you can't beat a smiley tipper here,s me passing through a big ditch in mine, it honestly never took me 10 hours to get it out,
-
I have zero understanding or interest in it, but have a few friends that dabble and seem to enjoy themselves, but from my very limited understanding its much like the old pyramid scam were everyone pays in and the first few make a killing but as soon as someone drops out the lot collapses, if you don't have money to loose stick with gold ,silver or premium bonds, as you can always get your money back and they will always make you money

Toy,s flying out the pram, have a few drams its Hogmanay
-
Your dead right there most of the cast are to fat or fecked to get in and out of a normal car let alone chase a mythical beast through miles of woodland in the dark it,s an hour of your life you can never get back so I wouldn't bother looking any further as you say lifes to short
-
That's the one and I,d hazard a guess she,s never walked more than a mile in one go either, werewolf,s are a new one on me, better watch myself as I,m sleeping out for three nights this week and I believe it will be a full moon,

Those programs are a tongue in cheek joke, the fact that people even think they are anything to do with reality, are as far removed from the truth as the program itself is,
-
Yes really I deal with fact as much as possible, if someone said to me there is a yeti in the Himalayas how could I or you disagree with them as we have never been there and even if we did go there we would probably never cover a small fraction of it, likewise the Rocky Mountains up through into Canada, I know several shooters who travel to Scotland and piss there selves at your reply,s and simply conclude you never go out, as they say anyone who spends any amount of time out especially at night would have seen a cat up there, so you see it's not all about what the Internet tells you to think,

Wonder how many terriers Dirty Harry shoots a year, in days gone by that looks like a good way of entering a pup but not a massive challenge even for one terrier that know,s it's stuff
-
As disappointed as our terriers looked many moons ago when we thought we had the worlds biggest rats to at with the coypu on the Norfolk broads, turned out to be ten times the size but not ten times the foe, the only beaver living wild in the uk that I,ve Seen you could have run up to it and done a drop goal it just sat there grooming itself not bothered by us in any way
-
There is a woman who seems to be the main Bigfoot person in the uk called Debora something, it's the lack of space for a creature of that size which makes it a no go for me, last time we had the bf discussion there was a British kid parked in a convenient lay-by with nice trainers on claiming he saw a squash and has been looking for it for the last ten years in a woodland covering 11 square miles a cat has a territory of around 150 square miles and the most nomadic cat with a tracking collar on that I know of covers a territory of 400 square miles, large preditors need to keep on moving so as

Should also say always fit a carbon monoxide detector in the room with the fire and any bedroom the chimney runs through
-
Same as navek checker plate over the old fire 6" hole through and a foot of flue pipe straight up the chimney been running for years

I,m assuming you meant Lynx, the biggest problem with the tree hugging types that seem involved in a lot of these projects is they are more interested in reintroduction than the environment they release them into, if there are enough prey species to keep an alpha preditor alive and well alls good, but when you release them to places that can't sustain them problems occur, many animals actually thrive because of each other, like the water Vole has benefited from the spread of otters and red squirrels seem to have a strong allie in the pine Martin, so maybe the Lynx may turn out to be an asset
-
The same bloke that is involved in the Lynx reintroduction is also involved in a project to save them he has a few films on YouTube were he works with local farmers to sterilise the local feral cat populations, trouble with all cats is they can and do crossbreed with many different cat species, good news for the Scottish wildcat is its the same species that lives in many European country,s so we could bring in fresh blood if needed, goodluck with your camera trapping hope you get what your after

Chef,s are one of the best tools to cull any species, the dodo big flightless and tasted good plus totally unafraid of people, the giant tortoise, could be kept alive for months with little space food or water, most of the more famous ones went in simular circumstances before the invention of the refrigerator, in our times it's the insect species that are more at risk because of our Careless uses of insecticides, only when we go back to living with nature instead of trying to control it will our future be secure but times not on our side the way we are going

Just put the telly on and the film African queen 1951 is on channel 5, which is were it all started, allegedly, 70 years to go from exotic rarity to nuisance, pretty good going for an invader
-
Another issue worth a look is band length, it's very normal to use a foot per side with the old square elastic were as flat bands usually perform better at around half that length, it's normally calculated by taking your draw length and divide by 6, just keep messing around until it all comes right

Party,s at mine don't like the drunken walk home so play host
-
Bag of frozen peas for as long as you can take followed by a hot water bottle, I have lots of back issues, don't like taking pills so I take rose hip syrup and do the hot/cold thing only thing I use from the chemist is the gel you put on the skin, to much painkiller abuse will just feck your kidneys and livers

The last two people that have hit me should both have been off the road, one had altzimers and was totally confused and upset, the other one had some form of shaking going on like Parkinson's or simular, I was so concerned I called an ambulance as I thought he was having a stroke, but when I went to visit him a few days later to sort out insurance details he was still shaking about like he was in a dance competition, best of all after I,d helped him and his wife out and got them home safely then went to visit them a few days later as they were to shocked at the time, they then told the insuran

I looked after one a few years back for someone when they went on holiday,did,nt realise how fecked they were until the girl came to collect him and started telling me off for over exercising it as I,d been taking it out on my normal 3to4 hour hikes with my terriers and lurcher, well he was doing alright after a while but she told me that due to the head on it and not being able to breath very well it usually collapses if it goes out for more than 15 minutes, she did,nt seem to take it very well when I said I,d rather have a dead dog than a dog that could,nt walk and the poor animal eventually
