That does look just like it plus the foliage around is not dissimilar, looks like me and the dogs had a lucky miss with that one, cheers ?

I,guess like most creatures he will be a thing of habit so when I return I will tie the dogs up before I reach the spot and try to sneak up unnoticed and get a picture, I have a video somewhere on a hi8 tape of one I caught years ago (grass snake) but he,s stood right up spitting like a proper snake have also had some foul smelling shit sprayed on me by a grass snake it was a milky substance that no amount of washing seemed to shift and I stunk for days after, I,m still leaning toward adder as most grass snakes I find are close to or on water were as this thing was in a more heathland envirom

I just did mate and now you,ve confused me even more

This is the thing I look for before I grab a snake it's the yellow thing on the back of its head,that's a real grass snake I,ve caught quite a few,

Over the years I,ve encountered quite a few grass snakes and adders but yesterday when I was out I saw quite a big brown snake with diamonds down its back, it was sunbathing on a grassie hump on some waste land, I tried to grab it but it went under the grass and traveled faster than I could clear the grass plus I had my three dogs with me which I was trying to keep seperate as I never wanted them to eat the snake or it to bite them if it was poison, during the brief encounter I could not tell if it was an adder or a grass snake so when I got home I typed both into google images and the same pi

Why what's she done to you???

I think you,ll find that the phone package you have is only allowed to block calls from the uk, foreign call centres can't be covered by uk law and that's why you still get calls from a bloke called Dave that can't even say your name, I don't think there,s a need to line your cupboard in foil and hide under the stairs mate just check the small print within your package ?

3 best forks for the begginers are, scout as shown, proshot bloodshot, and the wasp uni fox, simple reason they are all multi grip and multi band friendly meaning you can hold them in most popular grips, left or right handed and use various bands or tubes on them, once you know what style of shooting and what bands you prefer you can get something a bit more specific or make your own let us know what you get

There was an old fella some years back doing some chainsaw work in his garden the wife was footing the steps for him, but as he fell off he took the head off her on the way down, I do own chainsaws but only cut up fallen trees for the fire,never off the ground, they don't give you the opportunity to learn from your mistakes
-
Cut it all as close to the floor as you can and next week just pull all the brown stuff off, I,ve realised I don't bounce as well as I used to so tend to take a few less risks, showed it before but this was a fall from a tree mate, cost me a week in hospital and another week off work, much cheaper to buy some decent steps or rent an ally tower ??

Sorry thought you,d miss spelt the car brand can't get the link working ???

Looks good, venison? I,ve had enough of stew,s and curry,s for a while lovely to be doing a bit of summer grub over the coal,s ?

I get the paste in a little Indian shop, it comes from Kingston and has a real good kick, agree a 100 percent about the powdered stuff usually use it to flavour sauce rather that marinating, just done a quick pizza as all this cookings making me hungry and the pork will need 3/4 hours in the smoker at least, enjoying the sunshine at last ??
-
Just boned and jerked half a pork belly will put it in the smoker later on or early tomorrow , stuffed with spring onions and proper jerk paste , the daughters are away on hockey tour and the boys away fishing so a full banquet for when they all return hungry and hungover, the old sauce pan contains applewood chips that are soaking in water for a really slow smoke

I have a 900 aero turbo locked away for my retirement fund ?

I think Nigel mansel had one years ago also very popular in the states, just another way of relieving the rich of there wealth as they can't be arsed to build a canine relationship almost every dog I,ve ever owned would attack if someone made a sudden move toward me and I,ve never owned or required a guard dog, it's just a strong loyalty, were as these things are imprinted with a secret attack word

Bet he wish,s he,d one the award for head movement, he might have ducked ?

Get danual dubious fighting a bit more and I think we could have a genuine unbeatable unified heavyweight for a few years, there,s to much pissing about with all the politics and different belts and if fury don't get busy soon his comeback will end the same way as Hayes I think, ?
-
Ggg v Canelo was the last straw for me, I said after that farce I,d never pay again and so far have,nt, been tempted a few times but just get up and watch on YouTube now, if I don't want to see the result I get someone else to upload it for me ?
-
Glad I never paid for that, think it's shocking that any old rubbish think they deserve ppv these days, I think they should now both retire as bellew is to small to take on any of the real heavyweights and haye has been shite since he became a heavy, have seen more unpredictable fights down the local smelting works and I can get in and have a few beers for a twenty, roll on next weekend for linares ,lomanchenko, I,m away fishing all weekend so will be listening on the radio proper old school

I have two other woodburners in other places and normally only close the doors if they are spitting badly or I,m going out or to bed, but I,ll give this one a go open and closed better to test it to destruction before I fit it in the shed ?
-
I have been asked I think on here if I had a chimney sweeping certificate once, when I put one of those creosote logs in my fire to clean the flu , there are some truly sad people about mate
-
It's only going in a shed so not that worried, if it needs it I,ll attach a flange and an adjustable air vent, but if it draws ok through the gaps I,ll leave it
-
It's a bit of a mock up just to get things going will give it a right good roasting later to see how they fair and if no good easy to put a couple of dabs of weld in, will also only be burning wood which does not reach the same tempature as coal, it's normally take 2 or 3 before I get it right but it's just nice being outside playing with boys things, I get a little stir crazy if I,m stuck in for any length of time ?

For me the one legged argument was just an excuse, it was fine at the start only when he,d already lost did he start falling around, like the broken toe and other excuses they keep throwing out, he lost the fight fair and square in my eyes and the same thing will happen tonight unless he gets lucky with a big shot early doors, a great cruiser that never cut the mustard moving up,and though he may have held a world title as a heavy, he fought and beat the two worst heavyweight champions in history and has probably been given a lot more chances than most other boxers as well, I wish we were bac
