  1. And it'll most likely be the best grafter.
  2. I drove up to Richmond yesterday to deliver some mesh and unusually for me, I stopped at one of these raodside vans selling burgers etc. I very very rarely stop at these corn shops as I've invariably found them to be dire. But this little van on the A66 just outside Richmond was a bit different, I asked for a sausage and mushroom sarny and the lass started to reel off "Would you like plain sausage, pork and leek, pork and apple, pork and chives, pork and black pudding" etc. etc. So I had a pork and black pudding with mushrooms and it was absolutely......fan.......tastic. She cooked it to o
  3. I have some brand new galvanised weld mesh sheets for sale. The sheets are 7'3" x 3'6" and are very very heavy duty. The sheets are in West Yorkshire, but I could deliver a reasonable distance for diesel costs. Sheets are £10 each.
  4. A couple that never let me down, scanned old photos, so crap quality, but I wish I had any one of them now.
  5. I would say coxidiosis, it normally occurs in younger rabbits and they generally grow out of it by the time they are 3/4 grown, creamy coloured spots on the liver, some only get it mildly and some get a liver full, no detriment to the flesh though.
  6. Hold on to it mate, you might be able to swap it for a shovel
  7. It was Oxford bags round here mate, two tone jobs with a two inch turn up and loafers polished to death, the high waisters thing never lit my candle, but then as I got to about 17, it was the Levi stay press, Ben Sherman shirts and a number 1, never had it back since, I never was over fond of the Crombie, but I really loved the Arrington jackets, didn't like em in black, I had a beige one and a red one, everything just seemed so cool, a smart skinhead. Our kid was into the eye make up on one eye, white bib and brace and brolly, shiny docs, clockwork orange job, he was older than me, and wh
  8. Not too late yet, Sub Arctic Plenty are a good outdoor variety, a lad off here's wife put us on to them, good crop, very hardy. An old gardener once told me April 17th was the best day to sow tomatoe seeds, where the f**k he got that date from I don't know, but it's always stuck in my head, mind ours have been in the greenhouse a fortnight now and started off in the propogator first.
  9. Blue and purple Bet you traded it in for a dead smart jumper with three stars on it eh!
  10. I remember Budgie, now who's going to admit to having one of the trendy Budgie shirts or jackets with the f*****g massive round ended collars and at the same time wearing those absolutely ridiculous duck bill shoes, and just to cap it off a feather cut. I hade some, but I was only about 12 and very impressionable, that's my excuse anyway. Mindst, I wouldn't mind having enough for a feather cut now
  11. Same as Skycat, but it's easier to make a bit more dilute TCP, soak a clean cloth in the liquid, pull the old skin back and give the lipstick pencil a good wash, some dogs hate this and some seem to get a twinkle in their eye, but it'll clean it up right enough.
  12. I must have misread that, I didn't think that she was diagnosing Knuckle Rash, I thought that was the treatment she was offering, most probably across the bridge of your nose.
  13. You can still buy them new from Machine Mart, check their web site.

    romany

    That and the fact that the vast majority of ronkers that travel the roads nowadays have no Romany blood in them whatsoever, more's the pity as the true Romanies are generally a decent sort of folk. the dross that trolls the streets these days are really what Wilf is describing, tea leaves, that'd have anything you've got in the blink of an eye. That said, when they pass by our way on the way to Appleby, some of the Real McCoy are a sight to behold and take pride in their belongings like no other people, a lesson that could be learned by the shite gangsta style twats that roam the streets t

    Lessen you just wait for her to have a piss and then follow the steam in
  16. I agree with Pip and Samward, good working strains shouldn't need it, and if an outcross is needed, then source a dog from an unrelated strain, but like Pickaxe says, most terriers will have bull blood in their ancestry, but generally that'll be a long long time ago, unless it's a purpose bred cross, but true enough if you look back through the ancestry of the working terrier, there'll be bull blood, seems as though it was fashionable once over. I once bought in a first cross Patterdale/Staff a lot of years ago and though it worked reasonably, it was a nightmare and would buckle into anyth
  17. Once dug an old tip, when we broke through the fox was in the drum of an old washing machine, sick with mange.

    MINCER??????

    I have a Hobart 22, it's a butchers shop type mincer and takes everything in it's stride, I paid 150.00 for it second hand and thought it was a gift, however, I hardly ever use it now, I prefer to feed carcasses, the dogs get more enjoyment out of them, wouldn't part with the mincer though, it's still good for the odd occasion. So if you come across one of these, you won't go wrong with it.
  19. Want the best there is though? Hardwood double glazed window frames. Find a builder who specialises and take every scrap he'll bring ye. Truckloads is great. It's a bitch on the chain saw blade and for god sake make sure ye suss out which way those six inch nails go. It also leaves ye with an interesting lot of clack, from the puttys. Take care with any hardwoods, hardwood sawdust is class 1 carcinogen.
  20. Five miles, no ten........ten miles, on my bare hands and knees.........over broken glass.........just to kiss the hand of the man that takes your knickers to the laundry.
  21. Definately a bit of a long shot, but I'm after a copy of the documentary "Savage Man Savage Beast" If I'm not mistaken it was done in the late seventies, there was a lot of videos of it about once over, just wondered if anyone had a copy to sell, especially on DVD.
  22. Yes it is, I sent a Titan Bearcat to America recently, no problems, a good idea though is to remove the barrel from the stock, making the package as short as possible to reduce the risk of bending the barrel, it's happened plenty of times and as said above, take out insurance.

    Jack Hargreaves

    Jack did "Out of Town" and "Old Country", it's the only thing I came home for on a Sunday afternoon when I was a kid.
  24. where is the anglers rest? Under his rod in't it
