calling each other ‘babe’

Please define "babe", being an elderly grandfather I have been quite surprised at having both the competent, hardworking and attractive young ladies on the gang I occasionally work with calling me such on separate occasions now and it perplexes me.

 

BTW @MattyF I identify myself as like you and your wife and was so disappointed you let the baiters get up your nose, count to ten and hit the ignore button in future.

A certain unsavoury word was replaced in the swear filter by the word ‘babe’

 

In the example you describe, I think the girls you mention think you are a ‘sexy MoFo’

From my deerstalking training unless you had a clear shot to the heart area within your capabilities you didn't take the shot. Sadly with the hounds it's not a swift bite to the neck it's more often chased to exhaustion then ripped apart by the pack. Never shot a deer yet but that's another story.
I suffer in having the Oakley Hunt as immediate neighbours and see regularly atvs with terrier boxes on the back along with shovels etc following the hunt. So if you're trail hunting why do you need terriermen? No one from the hunt will answer that one. Also I watch them laying a trail with the atv, shame it's following the hunt not leading it! Google Mark Hankinson and the infamous 'smokescreen' video, he was charged and found guilty.
I am not anti hunt but have suffered from multiple trespass, verbal abuse and physical threats over many years and this continues every hunt season. I do not allow sabs in my wood either, I'm not going to be the battleground for both sides to fight on.
And I was from a council estate and scrimped and scraped to afford my woodland.

Funny you should say that. I have asked the question. Apparently, the "terriers like a day out".  As you say, this swift nip to the neck that gets banded about, what a load of bollox!

Such irrefutable and compelling evidence to discredit those that find hunting abhorrent whilst presenting a credible case for the continuation of animal cruelty in the name of recreation....

 

I was blind, but now I see....

 

Glad that’s all sorted 😂

To slightly change tack,  I have really really enjoyed watching YouTube videos of dogs being used to kill rats in and around decrepit farm buildings and from under the modern movable henhouses/pighouses.

A proper days crack.

Yep i like to see terriers on rats, IMHO a better way than poison.  However I don't get people who say they are happy to see terriers killing rats but think hounds on foxes is unacceptable/animal cruelty.🤔

Does this not constitute hunting with dogs?

And covid restrictions are back.

 

Apparently we now have to isolate until we've got a negative day 2 PCR test after international travel. And wear f*cking masks again in shops.

 

Bollocks to that. I'm just not doing this anymore.

J I’ve pretty much came to that conclusion now, no more of these petty destructive restrictions, life’s too short to have some jobsworth politician and ego inflated scientists literally having us dance to this bullshit tune. It’s all just way way too convenient quite frankly , the public has basically had enough of this, cop 26 etc is over so let’s just refocus on covid 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️Hey presto the worst ever variant with 2 whole cases so far and that’s enough to reintroduce restrictions. They genuinely must think the masses will swallow any old shit.
