micky 3,325 Posted July 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 When we younger we used to go to Snettersham , a place called Shepherds Point this would have 75 /76 half way down the on the left was a large field running up to a long Wood , between the Wood and the Field was a single row of large Bales of straw about 3 hundred yards long , I drove over the Field because one of the Kids saw some Rabbits running about now I have seen places before Mixi and after which held a lot of Rabbits but nothing like this they went over the Bales in a stream hundreds of them , the saturation point for Rabbits is 30 per Acre and to me it looked to be more , as I said I have been places where there was a lot of Rabbits but not a third of what we saw that Morning .

Are you really sure that you want to go on holiday to either ? what's wrong with Spain or Greece or Turkey or anywhere with clean blue water and something different to do. From the weather forecasts it is either thrashing down with horizontal rain and blowing a Gale. Still a bloke I used to work with used to go to Scunthorpe every year and another used to go to Pontins in Camber every year. He only lived half an hour away. His reasoning was that it wasnt far to go and once inside the camp they were all the same and he could go back home to check the mail and water the garden plants. BORING. .. Then there was the couple in the hotel in Majorca who had come to the same hotel for 25 years. Same room, same fortnight but had never been outside the hotel. They just sat under a parasol and read a book! They didn't even know where the bus stop was to go into Palma. They might as well saved the holl money and stayed at home.

Meece 1,957 Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 Ah, I see, previous injury caused by terrorist child. But, that's no excuse if your not well you should be at home not cavorting around northern Britain in the rain and wind. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The water clears further north around Cumbria, mainly due to radiation from sellafield but also due to the amount of rainwater going into the sea id imagine. My advice would be to go to Cornwall I remember walking home one night around 97-98.. steamin... from Waterfront nightclub (opp Metropole hotel) down to little Bispham. I walked on the beach the whole way, shoes off etc and fuuck me, every footstep I took, was shining brilliant lights. Emanating from my every footstep.... I'm sure Sellafield has effected that far south and probably explains a lot about me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
