    I always used to use Jungle Formula when we went on holiday to Majorca. Put it on arms legs and face before you go out. Sleep naked on the bed and wake up to an arse full of mozzie bites, that's how I know it works. Got 7 bites on right fore-arm week before last. Arm like Popeye, all well and good but I kept trying to squeeze spinach down my pipe, and the wife took on the appearance of Olive Oyl.

    Personally I like courgettes. Good addition as a layer to moussaka, some years ago I made a 'corer' from a piece of fishing rod and used to stuff the courgettes with minced lamb and rice and roast in the oven. Wife never used to like courgettes until I made her a well seasoned omelette which she ate within 15 minutes of me picking them. They make a nice bhaji if you don't overcook them. I also like stuffed marrow. I have some frozen grape leaves, harvested quite young, with which I will be making dolmades, using vegetable rice for the stuffing, a lot of fcuking about but nice as a nibble.

    Didn't they throw a hissy fit over Peppa Pig a couple of years ago, you couldn't make it up I bet they'd be alright with Muffin the Mule though.

    The sh1t will really hit the fan when they find out Fireman Sam wears a taqiyah cap and a pair of those curly toed slippers when he's off duty.

    I must admit that I was quite surprised as well at the lack of charcoal/wood for barbies the first time I went to Aussie. My son even had one of those double gas ones, which I got to use. You don't quite get the taste that we are used to with charcoal but if you oil the grill bars well and put chicken 'skin side down' you start to build up some good smoke and 'spitting' when the oil and fat drip onto the diffuser and then rises to flavour the meat. Where they fall down IMO is when people put on skinned chicken breasts, prawns, scallops, steak, chops etc DRY. I liked the easy clean up of them

    Used to pick up the occasional trout on bread intended for chub, whilst trotting the Deepdene stretch of the River Mole in Dorking years ago. Have also had eels take bread, again trotted for chub, but during the night on the River Beult in Kent, using one of those green 'glow-in-the-dark' floats you used to have to shine your torch on to activate it, before proper night floats had been invented although in all honesty I did find worms more successful.

    I was standing at the bar having a pint the other night when I felt someone gently squeeze my bum and say "You're kind of cute, do you have a phone number". I turned round and there stood Angela Merkel. "Yes, I have a phone number, do you have a pen" I said. She replied "Yes I do have a pen" I said "Well don't you think you had better go and get in it before the farmer notices you're missing."

    This few days of hotter weather has benefited the midges/gnats, got bitten alive whilst walking the dog past the lake, fcuking things.

    Yep, definitely caddis fly larvae, seen quite a few over the years. Used to find the empty cases washed up in the shallows sometimes, even found one which incorporated a spent matchstick.

    The first harness my pup had was one very similar, with the black plastic clips, and on 2 occasions whilst playing, rolling around on the floor with another dog etc, the harness came undone, which is why I went over to proper brass buckles.
  13. Mister Gain
    If you don't mind paying a few bob for a 'quality' harness, have a look at https://www.aecollars.co.uk/ they are aimed at staffies but you can get them plain (no studs), They are made to order, I got a harness, collar and lead in plain black. Made with 3.5mm - 4mm English bridle leather with heavy guage buckles and rings.

    A pirate walked into a bar, and the bartender said, "Hey, I haven't seen you in a while. What happened? You look terrible." "What do you mean?" said the pirate, "I feel fine." "What about the wooden leg? You didn't have that before." "Well," said the pirate, "We were in a battle, and I got hit with a cannon ball, but I'm fine now." The bartender replied, "Well, OK, but what about that hook? What happened to your hand?" The pirate explained, "We were in another battle. I boarded a ship and got into a sword fight. My hand was cut off. I got fitted with a hook but I'm fine, re

    Being in Wales, would that be a Morris 'Miner'?

    Beetroot and fried egg are classic burger toppings in Oz, sounds weird but actually really fecking good The next time I went over there they had stopped the Mc Oz, but apparently it's back nowadays. There's good eating to be had in Aussie with all their food diversity.

    Absolutely love beetroot, looks a nice brekkie. First time I went to Aussie my son wanted to stop at a McDonalds to feed the kids and I noticed they did a burger with beetroot in, I don't normally go for McD's shite but I tried the Mc Oz and it was actually really nice.

    My Mrs. was a juror that day at Southwark Crown Court, my son rang from Australia and asked what the fcuk was going on in London. Being a miserable fcuker I don't have TV or radio on, so that was the first I heard of it and put the tele on.

    Would have loved to have seen Wales stuff Portugal, but not to be. You can hold your head high though, you did better than 20 other teams, well in I'd say.

    Couldn't tell you mate what with me only being an honorary Welshman today by the fact that in 1959 I watched the series of 'Ivor The Engine' in black and white, starring 'Jones The Steam'.

    O land of my fathers, O land of my love, Dear mother of minstrels who kindle and move, And hero on hero, who at honour's proud call, For freedom their lifeblood let fall. Chorus: Wales! Wales! O but my heart is with you! And long as the sea Your bulwark shall be, To Cymru my heart shall be true. 2. O land of the mountains, the bard's paradise, Whose precipice, valleys lone as the skies, Green murmuring forest, far echoing flood Fire the fancy and quicken the blood. Chorus: 3. For tho' the fierce foeman has ravaged your realm, The old speech of Cymru he cannot o'erwhelm, Our pas

    I pop in to Scott Rea's youtube site occasionally, he quite often prepares and uses different game in his butchery and recipes. Here's a recipe for rabbit boudin that looks delicious. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMcDn6U7LZw I've not tried it yet, but it's one for the future. In the recipe he mentions 'quatre epices', and translated it means '4 spices', usually consisting of... 2 tablespoons white peppercorns. 2 1/2 teaspoons freshly grated nutmeg. 1/2 teaspoon whole cloves. 2 teaspoons ground ginger. (Don't put it all in, it's a recipe to make a small batch )

    I totally agree with that mate, I genuinely think they are going to try and f**k the country over. Yep, something not quite right about all this. Everybody was fully aware and had plenty of time pre-referendum to formulate a plan of action to get the ball rolling to get us out of the EU as expediently as possible. A democratic government would have had this in place, just in case the result was to leave, which it was. Not wait 4 months to think about it while they try to find a way to wriggle out of it. A fcuking disgrace in my opinion.

    A young woman started work in the small English Village chemist shop. She was very shy about having to sell condoms to the public. The Chemist was going on holiday for a couple of days, and asked if she would be willing to run the shop on her own. She had to confide in him her worries about selling condoms. "Look" he said. "My regular customers don't ask for condoms; they either ask for a 310 (small); a 320 (medium); or a 330 (large). The word condom is never mentioned". The first day was fine, but on the second day a large black guy came into the shop, put out his hand and sai

    The local park where the dog gets his morning run has seen a recent abundance of young magpies. Policy of the council is to only cut the grass adjacent to the footpaths and leave the rest to grow and naturally reseed. I've noticed some of the birds 'roost' in the long grass, not a good idea given the amount of urban foxes in the area. Came across a young magpie a few weeks back which had probably had an encounter with a fox, wouldn't have thought it would have left without it's breakfast though.
