  1. I once spent 3 weeks on remand in HMP Woodhill for driving offences and one of my charges was failing to change my address on my driving licence( i had a provisional when i was a teenager many years before), the fact i didn't even have a currant driving licence made it a slightly amusing charge to give me....
  2. You don't have to hand it to them it's just the information on it they can look at, you paid for that bit of paper or plastic and it belongs to you so just make them read it and not touch it.
  3. It's the Charred Kong Towers .....
  4. First one sometime in the 80's the yogurt fight was in the 90's, we divided ourselves into teams (there was about 15 of us) and set the Bedford CF flat bed as base and we took it in turns to try to attack it and get on the back of it to win. It was during the summer and honestly mate the pickup was covered and we were just ripping off the lids on the pots and chucking them at each other and we were just as pink and minging as the pickup was. We just pilled on the back of the pick up and drove to a ford at a not to far river and washed it all off and what a laugh that day was for sure , also pr
  5. Years ago when i lived on site a skip run on a sunday to the super markets was a regular thing to do, a little story of one i went on in warminster at the tesco's. Sunday and i drove a marina van to the Tesco skip in Warminster from Salisbury as it was worth the 40 odd mile round trip and we weren't disappointed as me and a pal filled the van to the roof with all sorts of foods,sandwiches.fruit, dairy meats absolutely to much to list and all of it was in date. Filled the van and started to drive home and passed the old bill and got a tug, they lookedi n the van didn't believe us and we ended u
  6. Was joking to be honest but using a cast net does get folks interested until you start to pull in a net full of fish then the on lookers who 30 seconds before thought it a bit cool turn into anti's who think your a proper wrong un for catching so many fish.
  7. Used to catch a lot of 4- 5 lb ones from the shore in Pembrokeshire but my pb is a guessamate from the captain of a boat out of penzance at 17 lb and that was on the first drop of a trip my brother took me on for my birthday a number of years ago, Nice fish though Dave and bet that put ab end in the rod,,
  8. To be honest i'd say chucking any hook into a fish filled river like that isn't sporting in anyway and i'd be using my cast net more than a rod..
  9. Quick story but i was once begging in Nuneaton for a bit and used to have a very neat and tidy looking nuttal bred patterdale and the amount of dog food i used to get given and treats for the dog u had to give most of it away to be honest and if i'd have let it eat everything offered to it it'd been a fat over weight thing. But one day i went to a cafe to get a cup of tea and left the dog on my pitch with my stuff and some ladies in a mobile newspaper stand offered to look after my dog as well,i ordered my tea and popped back out the cafe about 50 yards away from my dog only to see a group of
  10. Me and a fella called Nickem on here used to hunt on flooded water meadows and he had a merlin/eve bred dog that did very very well on it, i had a bull x bred by Nickem and she was built like a brick shithouse but was only 23/24 tall. We were out very regularly and these dogs were good at there jobs, other folks dogs came and caught but just didn't have the stamina needed for the deep going, they were all sorts ,bull x's ,coursing breds ,collie x's and even Buck came and had some fun although the fecker nearly pulled my arm off I think regular running on it makes the difference as all the oth
  11. Bit came tuesday and gun is up and running, good quick service from that lot and again nice one for the link mate....
  12. Many years ago i watched a video call Executions and it was a very rough documentary about different executions and i chucked it on one time and sat back. 15 seconds in i turned the fecker off for a deap breath as that was harsh, scene was a woman being handed over to a mob by soldiers in a army jeep in some african market and the mob hacking her up. The video went on with shit like that and other african chop up with machete's etc., there were hangings,electric chairs shootings all sorts on it and i wish 30 years on i'd never watched it as that poor lasses fate has stuck with me...
  13. It is welbeck that has the railway inside it for the ashes and coal?, seen that one time as my brother worked there in the art department/gallery they had there a few years back and we had to put some stuff in the strong room and some fella let us have a look about downstairs..

    Covid..

    Had it for a few weeks now, can't loose the chesty cough and knackered all the time,still been going to work but by feck it's been hard work..
  22. He hated every minuet he was there, he used to say them, Indians can't even help themselves. Can't say i know what he meant as i have never been or want to go there but he had no momento's as such from his days there except a old 22 pellet in his hand from when he was shooting the pellet gun when a kid when his dad wasn't there and he wasn't allowed to and he shot himself in the hand and couldn't confess to it as he'd have had a belting for it and so it stayed in his hand until he died..
  23. Heard the old man tell of my grandad going tiger hunting and pig sticking, they even had the little indian lad pulling on a string for the fan, mongooses running around the compound for the snakes and rats.My old man hated growing up there but it sounded great to me as a kid and such a shame it wasn't photo'd or recorded like it can be these days..
  24. My grand parents lived in India as my grandfather was a major in the Royal Artillery and not sure where it was but she was the first English woman to have entered a part of the Himalaya's and the maharaja of said area had a gold coin struck in honour of the event and gave it to her, as they travelled a lot and security was a bit lax back then she was worried it would get lost or stolen so she had it made into a gold tooth so she would always have it with her and she was buried with it..Wish my old man was still about so i could ask him a about it and where it was but that bit of family history
  25. Tyson has never taken a beating in his life you star struck numpty,ffs there's a ref in the ring to stop it going to far and he's never been head butted,kicked,elbowed or biten so how the feck can he ever have "Taken some right beatings?", at best he's been punched in the face a few times whilst the other fella wore padded gloves..
