go to school get a high attendance then most vocational courses will take you... and work hard in maths and english, then if the shit really hits the fan you can walk into a number crunching temp work.... YIS BB

I'm training to be a carpenter at the moment, absolutley love it... if you can find an apprenticeship do it... or go to college and work hard , get the lecturers on your side, and they'll put the oppurtunities your way if you are willing to do the work and wont make them look like tossers...

I was asked a little while ago by a friend to sort a few rabbits out at his nursery... I had been trying to get down there for a few weeks, but finally managed this afternoon... We arrived at about 2.00, and were shown the boundaries, then headed off... I had an experienced hob who is a "hardcore" killer, often catches at the mouth of the hole, and one of the new inexperienced jills i got recently... the warrens were in a row on the edge of a small copse/wood... they varied between 2-10 holes... I gave the jill a go in the first few, but she seemed reluctant... never mind her time'll come...I

A mates a chicken farmer, supplies a well known fast food joint... he reckons its common to get £3-4 a hundred! if this is what it boils down to, farmers working all hours god sends and still have to get tax credits to support their familys, then what is the point? why not farm other livestock, or maybe rent the land out for a shoot. its not that easy, chicken shed take up very little space in comparison...

i dont think the blame can be put entirely on the farmers... alot of it is down to supermarkets forcing the prices down... if people want cheap meat this is result... until people realise that meat shouldnt be cheap, farms will continue to intensively rear animals...

spun poly, cos thats what i had a roll of.. if it had of been a roll of 4z nylon i'd of used that... theres a good possibility of rat nets getting trashed one way or another, so i dont think its worth worrying too much about material... just aslong as its does the job... that black dog is a little shite bag ....
