  5. That sounds like the opening of a Slim Shady song Neil.....Dear John,I will be your biggest fan.....PS,we should be together too" Old JW was probably terrified that paul was going to get him pregnant and drive off a bridge with him trapped in the boot Learn a lesson from it paul,dont be in awe of a guy just because he fishes and is on TV,he still s**ts,burps,and farts just like everyone else He fishes some of the waters we fish,though oddly enough I havent seen him when I visit hahahahahaha my names stan an dIm your biggest fan.... he still a dick though............
  6. I did indeed pull it in BRB,typical johnny-foreigner type tricks mate,it works and is acceptable as a fishing method over on the Tagus or the Mira,so they try it when they land in Blighty,well,its not on!I did actually leave it neatly bundled on the bank with a polite note pointing out its not actually allowed on the lake,just in case they returned once we had departed,I think its some sort of net mate These things shouldnt be used,can you imagine leaving such a device overnight on a stocked lake?It would be weighed under with trout come morning mate I actually think we did the fishery own

  8. Every had one of those days when EVERYTHING goes awry?The whole kit and kaboodle,the wall comes tumbling down,its all wrong from dusk to dawn?Yesterday,classic example,and this list is 100% factual....................... 1)My sis was arrested for a sort of fight. 2)She had to go to hospital,she has cracked a bone in her knuckles from hitting someone,X-rayed,hand was swelling rapidly 3)Old bill went to her house to arrest my nephew,he did a runner over to his aunts on the other side of the river,he is only 15 4)The wifes not talking to me(though thats got its pluses,it shouldn
  9. The first patent for a compound bow comanche was 1967,I have seen pics of it,its a stars-flight away from whats available now mate.Dogpaddle,I will find the Link tommorrow,I am getting my fishing gear ready at the moment mate.Droid,at 30 yards range most modern compounds in the 50-60 draw class will pass straight through a fallow-sized animal

    Shepp

    Yeah,I always see the odd one or two down near Dots swan sanctuary,but earlier I saw 7 in a couple of different fields feeding alongside normal coloured brethren

    Shepp

    Happy birthday Shepp,I was over your way about 10 minutes ago,went to viswit my nephew in Weybridge,just watched about 7 black rabbits in a few fields and saw a fox stalking down a hedgerow towards one of them
  13. Now JOE,why do you think I always wear slip-on or deck shoes?Because I cant even tie my f***ing shoe-laces,see you tonight Tight-lines
  14. How much does the 1'st edition go for Rip?
  15. The first edition sometimes pops up on the Bay mate,but its pricey,well worth the money though,excellent read
  16. Bow Hunting is superb! Have you been over here yet, since you posted this? Is there a thread on this forum dealing with bow hunting??? Anyone??? I live in an area that is almost overrun with black bears. They are easy to find, sometimes too easy. In fact they are so easy, that most people here just buy their bear tag and jump in the truck and drive up the road looking for one wandering the edge of the forest. I had the opportunity once to marry a canuck,she was from Ontario,not exactly my type long-term so I didnt go for it,but my wifes cousin has a farm in Minnesota just ove
  17. ANY METHOD DAYS Please dont tempt me LG You wouldnt believe it
  18. Chess,have a little faith,I have been to a LOT worse places than LG's fishery,and survived unscathed by the natives If LG gives me the CORRECT addie,sure I will present photographic proof AND magnanimously leave him a quid as I depart,either that or his hounds will get a damned good feed
  19. Never mail ordered JD,the range is only 10 minutes away,quick by name slow by service
  20. I got his "Badger digging with Terriers" when it first came out,excellent book,very factual,certainly the best terrier book I have read
  21. Flintlock,are you a member of the same club I shoot at?Quicks?
  22. Not allowed to send military spec NV gear to the uk.
  23. Never heard that mate,the longbow of old was more for distance,had a massive draw-weight,and the archers relied on a rain of arrows to cause havoc rather than rely on accurately loosing a single shaft,theres a revival of interest on whats known nowadays as "Primitive-archery" I have had a try of a long-bow and couldnt shoot it for toffee whereas a compound is a whole new ball game,like comparing an old smoothbore muzzle-loader with a modern day tack-driver
  24. I have taken part in the occasional E&E excercise in the past,dogs like me,I have the knack of placating them,whats the address again?
