  1. aye, good post, but equally "raise the public profile of the mole catcher" ? has a downside to it too, ive discovered.
  2. Oh, forgive me, I think I get you now ?,...well his "techniques" obviously work for him ? (& I've already addressed your point, I think ? Iol)
  3. Aye, a don't fully understand your last part ? ,...& it doesn't matter who shows you how to do it, methods are rarely 'set in stone' ?
  4. Iol,.....thanks , & I'm fully aware,.....his is a flawed concept, but,....well intentioned. & my "livelihood severely restricted" ? ,.....i doubt it, cause i just won't let it apply ? & "dangerous to all mole catchers" ?? well that's your opinion,..but I feel no threat, personally ?
  5. Noticed, Jeff Nicholls, appears in this week's issue ? Controversial character to some, i know ?,....but, i still have some respect for him (personally speaking)
  6. I got most o mine lifted, too (although i wont have as many as some ?)
  7. Ive got a feeling its gonna be longer here, time the fields clear, for working ?
  8. Bad aint it ?,....youve got to wonder, regards that type of attitude ,......honestly ?
  9. Yes mate, how bad are you down there ?,....(gonna fall behind for sure with this,....& be hard to catch up ?)
  10. Definitely Phil, hope you do ?,....(& what a cracking photo !)
  11. Who'd have thought it at the busiest period,....(cant believe it ?) 15inch deep snow here now, god knows when the traps will get out again ?? (think i'm better hitting the drink !!)
  12. Embarrasing, that approach to it is, & just backward ? (for this part of the project) Whats wrong over there ???
  13. Your right, Neil,.....displays such a poor mentality ?
  14. Bet you thought, you'd never see the day, Micky ? (bit sad, really)
  15. More moles this year than last, on another course here too,...& getting the odd 'double' in the traps, which (as alot if you will know ?) you can expect to get a bit more frequently round about this time of year ?
  16. Moles, have made somewhat of a comeback on this course, this winter,...(was a bit surprised, actually),.......possibly due to the wet summer, in my neck of the woods,....resulting in high survival rates of young moles ?,....
  17. Iol,...don't be fooled, mate,....wind & constant rain, the day before,...(alot more rainy days, than dry, these parts, sadly ?)
  18. There's always mole activity at this 9th hole here (every year), which is the highest part & furthest away point, of the course. So always a bit of a walk for me ! ?? (Uphill all the way, to get there)
  19. " and kept up to forty in pens " ?? ,.......i will say one thing though, whether its acceptable or not ?,.....the countryman & his dogs helping the landowner, (at one time ?) with a 'badger problem', is one thing ,......but the hypocrisy of the governments & the legislation, thats in place nowadays....which basically affords the badger 'over - protected' status (in my opinion) caused alot of the (alleged) problems now,.....with their over population, certainly in some spots (on the mainland, at least ?),.......BUT,...dare a (genuine) countryman, with his traps, dogs, snares, et
