I know, I had experience of thermal imaging long before they became commonly available. I don’t go out , day or night, to kill every animal in the area, it’s sport to me, with the added bonus of providing a very nice meal. A decent dog and lamp is all I need. Cheers.

It seems to be because the Irish government tried to bring in two new laws to change the constitution and in a referendum the Irish people comprehensively rejected them. It was about more woke nonsense about removing the word “woman” from the constitution, as far as I can tell. Cheers.

I had NV years ago, and you could scan the area without putting the lamp on, so you didn’t scare the quarry or let anyone know you were about, but it was just another thing to carry and I soon stopped using it and went back to basics. Cheers.

I like the saluki and have owned pures at a different time and place; but would I want one here and now ? Probably not. Cheers.

Samuel Johnson. Cheers.

So Charles hasn’t abdicated, Beatrice isn Queen and Catherine isn’t dead yet ? Maybe it’s like those Mayan calendars that are supposed to forecast the end of the world and someone just deciphered it incorrectly ? Cheers.

Not all; I’ve got permission on a farm and the farmer said take as many rabbits as I want but leave the hares and roe alone as he likes to see them. Shame that, as hare and roe are my favourite quarry, but having the permission does give me a bit of cover if I get a pull when coming home from elsewhere ! Cheers. -
In “rough shooting” a couple of “guns” will just walk the land and have a pop at what jumps up, but , as you say, a “formal “ hare shoot will usually do “walk one, stand one”; which is if there are ,say, twenty “guns”, ten will stand in a line while the others drive the hares towards them, then they will change places for the next drive. Some of the big shoots will kill hundreds of hares. The hares in these places seem to survive, and breed to replace the stock for the next years shoot, but I know of places, my brother has ferreting permission on one place, where the farmers go out at nig

Course ‘em, lamp ‘em, snare ‘em, shoot ‘em, it doesn’t matter, as long as you jug ‘em right ! Bon Apetit !

He’s not a bad lad, he enjoys the banter, as I do. Hes a challenge, but I won’t give up on him ! LOL ! Your grew looks a nice strong bitch, I like the “whizz bangers”, far more exciting seeing a dog take a hare quickly than being dragged around a field for ten minutes ! ( He won’t be able to resist biting now ) ! LOL ! Cheers.

mC has never caught a six legged Northumberland hare; Cheers.

mC, mate, how many teachers did you cause to quit the profession and seek leek less stressful employment ? Cheers.

Don’t obfuscate , answer the question ! By your logic an aircraft flying around the world on an equatorial route would be flying sideways ! “Not allowed to fly over the South Pole “ ? I would tell you there’s an airbase there, used by many nations , but it would be pointless, you’d say it was just more lies from “them” , whoever “them “ are ! LOL ! Cheers.
-
We’ve been through all this nonsense before, so I’ll just ask you one question; When an aircraft flies pole to pole, at what point, in your mind, does it turn “upside down” ? Cheers.

I’m in a good place in my life just now, mate, I don’t need cheering up ! Besides, I get a good laugh every time I log onto here ! LOL ! Cheers.

C’mon Scotty ; stop pinching mC’s lines ! LOL ! Cheers.

Same here, I love daytime hare coursing, but these days it’s much safer lamping ! If I want sport, then it’s daytime, if I want to fill the freezer it’s nighttime. Cheers.

Hologram…….not really her …….PMSL ! Cheers.

The Russians announced today that King Charles died two days ago. 'King Charles is NOT dead': British embassy in Moscow issues furious denial after Russian media shared fake Buckingham Palace statement claiming Monarch 'passed away unexpectedly yesterday afternoon' | Daily Mail Online WWW.DAILYMAIL.CO.UK A host of Russian news sites and their associated social media accounts reported earlier today that the King... Must be right because Putins the good guy and the UK and USA are the bad guys ……. Cheers.

You heard it first here on THL ! Never mind Reuters, BBC, AP, Bloomberg , etc… bunch of amateurs ! Cheers

I’ve got no time for any of them, if they all disappeared tomorrow it wouldn’t make one iota of difference to my life. Im a believer in “power corrupts and absolute power absolutely corrupts”, and the Royals may not have the legal or constitutional power and haven’t since Charles the second, but they have massive influence on the establishment, but I cant see how making Beatrice queen would be accepted and how it would be any improvement. Im certainly no constitutional expert, but if Charles were to abdicate surely the crown would go to the next in succession ? When Edward v111

Her dads a suspected nonce and her mother is a serial adulteress and her husband is Italian……hardly the pedigree to be queen ? Cheers.

Princess Beatrice ? Cheers.

9/11 I was in my office on Jeddah Airport in Saudi and my son ‘phoned me from his office in the British Consulate in Saudi and said “Dad, put your tv on, they are bombing America, we are going into total lockdown, I will call you when I can “ ! My office quickly filled up with people of all nationalities as the drama unfolded. Then we got the order that the Airline was going into lockdown , all flights cancelled, any aircraft in the air to head for the nearest “friendly “ airport and land. For a while it really looked like WW3 had started. Cheers.

My older brother had to convert to Catholicism to marry his catholic girlfriend, came the full circle. I was christened at the Venerable Bede in Jarrow, but am an atheist, but I had to show proof of religion , basically that I wasn’t a Jew, when I went to work for the Saudis in the 70’s, so my baptism certificate was accepted even though I’m a non believer ! Shows how daft it all is ! Cheers.
